The mission of our practice is to provide the best attainable medical and surgical care for our patients. Our practice was established in 1966. The subspecialty of Pediatric Ophthalmology is a young one, and Pittsburgh was one of the first cities in the U.S.A. to have an office exclusively dedicated to the care of eye problems in children. Our physicians are experienced with the management of all eye problems arising in childhood, the management of strabismus in adults.
Our offices are staffed with more than 20 assistants who have received special training to provide you with the best possible ophthalmologic care. In the Operating Room, we are assisted by experienced O.R. personnel that have worked with each of us for many years. Call our Administrative office, (724) 772-3388, if your child has an eye problem requiring emergency treatment.
During regular business hours we will direct you to the office most convenient for you or to the hospital as the situation requires. During after hours our answering service can reach one of our doctors 24 hours a day for emergencies.
