I was born and raised in San Francisco, earned my BS in Biological Sciences at UC Davis in 1985 and my DVM from University of Wisconsin, Madison in 1990. My internship was at a multispecialty practice at the Sacramento Animal Medical Group where I spent a total of 4 years in general practice before obtaining Diplomate status in Veterinary Ophthalmology from UW Madison in 1997. My time in general practice and focus on clinical medicine and surgery has given me a keen perspective on managing all facets of your pet’s eye problems. I try to balance the practical with the technical so together we can make educated decisions. I have surrounded myself with a fabulous staff so that you can feel comfortable trusting us to answer your questions and take care of your pet’s needs. I have lived here in Connecticut since 1999 and continue to keep myself busy with my wife Leila and our 2 boys, Charlie and Reggie, although they are in college now We love to golf, play racquet sports and I play the saxophone and electric bass. Under duress, I would say Maine Black Bear and Tin Roof Sundae are my favorite ice creams
