About
I am a comprehensive ophthalmologist and an attending physician for the residency program at Loyola University Medical Center.
I clinically take care of medical and surgical complexities of the eye including standard, specialty, and complex cataract surgery.
I enjoy teaching medical students and residents so that they may be the next generation of wonderful doctors.
