Being a well-versed ophthalmologist, Dr. Mollman specializes in the treatment of cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. He sees patients at the Dakota Eye Institute, where he remains committed to providing quality eye care solutions at the office in Bismarck, North Dakota.

The Dakota Eye Institute is a multi-specialty group of board-certified ophthalmologists, optometrists, and professional staff. The Institute opened its doors to its first eye care clinic in 1989 and has been expanding its services ever since with locations throughout the state of North Dakota, including Rugby, Linton, and Bismarck.

The doctor’s medical journey began after he earned his medical degree from the University of Colorado School of Medicine. He then went on to complete an internship at the University of Colorado Hospital, followed by a residency in ophthalmology at the University of Kansas Medical Center.

Well established in his field, Dr. Mollman is board-certified in ophthalmology by the American Board of Ophthalmology (ABO). The ABO is an independent, non-profit organization responsible for certifying ophthalmologists in the United States of America. 

For the purpose of staying up to date in his field, he remains a member of several professional organizations, including the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Medical Association, the Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society, and the Golden Key Honor Society.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery, which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diseases, functions, and anatomy of the eye. They may provide routine care such as vision testing, as well as prescribe and fit eyeglasses or contact lenses. However, ophthalmologists are also surgeons. They repair traumatic injuries to the eye and perform cataract, glaucoma, and corneal surgery.

Outside of the office, Dr. Mollman enjoys spending time with his family. An avid outdoorsman, he also enjoys hunting, fishing, camping, and riding his motorcycle. He is originally from McIntosh, South Dakota.
