Why choose an ASOPRS-trained oculoplastic surgeon?

 

BOARD CERTIFICATION

Oculoplastic surgeons must be board certified in Ophthalmology and complete a 2-year fellowship in orbital, reconstructive, and cosmetic surgery.

A SELECT FEW

Approximately 25 ASOPRS-trained surgeons are certified each year. This limited number translated to about 700 members worldwide

 

Dr. Siegal specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries of the eyelids and face, and in disorders of the lacrimal (tear drainage) system and the orbit (the bones of the eye socket). She is dedicated to providing functional and aesthetically pleasing results.
