\"Ophthalmology<\/p>\n

The Ophthalmology Service helps pets with a variety of eye issues in order to help preserve vision and ocular comfort.<\/p>\n

Staff<\/strong>
\nBoard-certified ophthalmologists: Drs. Rachel Allbaugh, Jesus Diaz and Melissa Kubai
\nResidents: Drs. Mona Hoerdemann, Sonja Ing and Bacty Turicea
\nTechnicians: \u00a0Michele Nigg and Chimene Peterson<\/p>\n

Services Provided<\/strong>
\nThe Ophthalmology Service sees all types of animals for corneal ulcers, cataracts, dry eye disorders, eye inflammation, glaucoma, eyelid issues, neoplasia, retinal problems, and orbital issues.<\/p>\n

The service see 50-60 patients a week, primarily dogs, cats and horses, but will treat exotics and farm animals. New cases book out two to three months and clients should work with their local veterinarian to evaluate the patient\u2019s eyes so they can determine if an animal should be seen sooner as an emergency or urgent case. Clients can also be added to our waiting list when cancellations arise.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-7286","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"site_sections":["PatientsClients","VETMED","VMC"]},"yoast_head":"\nSpotlight on Ophthalmology -
