THE FLORIDA OPHTHALMOLOGIST - SUMMER 2016 | PAGE 1
Let me start by thanking everyone who had
anything to do with me becoming President of
the Florida Society of Ophthalmology (FSO) for
the 2016-2017 term. It is truly an honor, and
a big responsibility, which I do not take lightly.
Before introducing myself, I’d like to thank our
outgoing President, Dr. Brad Oren. Dr. Oren,
along with many dedicated FSO members and
needed revision of the guidelines involving the
in the state of Florida. This revision was
by the EVP/CEO of the American Academy of
Ophthalmology and contained three members
of the FSO, including its Chairman, Dr. Mark
Michels. Under Dr. Oren’s astute guidance,
his term included a well-received Masters of
Orlando Grande Lakes in Orlando. Great strides
in the fight against amblyopia were accomplished
during Amblyopia Awareness Month in August
and several successful amblyopia screenings
throughout the state of Florida. Dr. Oren proved
leader. He will certainly be a tough act to follow.
blessed with three amazing kids. I have just over
20 years’ experience in ophthalmology and truly
choose ophthalmology all over again, as I think
most of us would. Let’s face it, we have a great
profession. Of course, it is a profession that is
constantly being challenged, both by external
forces as well as from within. I hope to use my
passion for my chosen career to serve the FSO

ophthalmologists that are not involved, it’s

In conclusion, please don’t be a stranger.
Contact me with your thoughts, your concerns,
