She was thorough but was mad that I couldn’t hear her at first. Lovely after that. 😊

I have been seeing Doctor Kelly for several years for my eye examines. Currently I am in the process of having Cataract surgery. She was very through on explaining the procedure and made me very comfortable with the process. I highly recommend her and the staff.

I chose ophthalmology because it gave me the ability to help patients both in the clinical and surgical settings. As a medical student, I had the opportunity to observe eye surgery and it gave me a better understanding of the anatomy of the eye, which I still find absolutely fascinating.
Now, as a practitioner, providing the highest quality of care for my patients is one of my best qualities, which requires patience, excellent surgical skill, and great communication skills. By collaborating together, I help patients understand what is happening with their eyes and give them the confidence of knowing they are in good hands for their eye care.
I especially enjoy being able to make a drastic difference in a patient’s quality of life by performing cataract and corneal surgery (for which I have sub-specialty training), and guiding them through the process before, during, and after.
