Treating the Whole Person

Ophthalmologists Know Medicine, Not Just Eyes

What sets ophthalmologists apart from other eye care providers is that they are physicians, capable of treating the whole person. That's how Anne L. Coleman, MD, PhD, first approaches a patient — as a physician; and then she focuses on the specific eye problems the patient is experiencing.

Dr. Coleman is an ophthalmologist — an eye medical doctor and surgeon — and a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.
