Biography

As a high school student, Dr. Narges Zandvakil, MD was captivated by the intricacies of the eye and the process of vision. She was particularly fascinated by how eye doctors could correct various visual deficiencies. This curiosity led her to pursue medical school with the goal of becoming an ophthalmologist. During her residency, she discovered the complexities of diagnosing and treating glaucoma, which truly captured her interest and deepened her commitment to this field. It also allows her to build long-term relationships with patients while addressing their unique visual needs.

Dr. Zandvakil's practice philosophy centers on patient-centered care, where the individual needs and preferences of each patient guide her approach. She believes in fostering open communication to ensure that patients feel heard and empowered in their treatment decisions. She strives to combine the latest advancements in ophthalmology with compassionate, personalized care, focusing not just on the clinical aspects but also on the overall well-being of her patients. Education is also a key component of her philosophy. She takes the time to explain diagnoses and treatment options, ensuring that her patients understand their conditions and are active participants in their eye health journey. Ultimately, her goal is to enhance both vision and quality of life for everyone in her care.
