Summary

  • I am a practicing vitreo-retinal specialist with additional interest in application of new technology to healthcare. Being situated in the Silicon Valley affords opportunities to explore many such applications. I welcome opportunities for collaboration that can add value to healthcare. The field of retina has benefited from advances in both hi tech and bio tech. There is an explosion of interest in the eye for a variety of reasons in addition to changing demographics. From artificial retina to RPE cell transplant, the retina is where my attention is focused.
