Our Philosophy of Care
While the landscape in the Round Rock and Central Texas area has transformed dramatically over the past two decades, so has the healthcare landscape. Physicians are oftentimes not able to provide as personalized care as they have been able to in the past. After eighteen years of providing medical eye care in Central Texas, I believe in going against this tide of change. I have set out to create something different by going back to the core values of why I decided to go into medicine. With the formation of Round Rock Eye Consultants, my goal is for a small private practice that is focused on providing patients with a high level of personalized, attentive service from both the physician and the support staff, while offering up-to-date care with the latest technology.
Central Texas has been a great place to work and live, and I can’t imagine being anywhere else. After so many years of practice, I now sometimes treat two or three generations from the same family. Building that kind of generational relationship is very fulfilling.
Round Rock Eye Consultants is small by design— focused on bringing back the attentive care of the local hometown doctor. This is my life-long dream, and we hope that patients have the feel of family and home from the very first moment they step through the front door.
