What’s one of the biggest compliments an ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon can receive?

When another world-class ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon chooses you for her own cataract surgery.

In this recent article, Neel R. Desai, M.D., a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained corneal, cataract and refractive surgeon at Eye Institute of West Florida, an EyeCare Parters practice, shares the story behind caring for longtime colleague and friend P. Dee Stephenson, M.D., a powerful reflection of the trust, expertise and physician relationships that help drive excellence in patient care across ophthalmology.

Patient stories continue to be one of the most powerful forms of connection in health care.

Recently, a cataract patient shared that reading a local newspaper column written by a fellow patient about his surgical experience at Bennett & Bloom Eye Centers helped ease her anxiety ahead of her own procedure. It meant so much to her, that she cut the article out of the paper and brought it into the office.

Thank you to Sergei Dmitruk, M.D., for the care, trust and confidence you help create for patients every day. And thank you to Lindon Dodd for sharing your experience so openly and thoughtfully. Your story helped more people than you may realize.
