Kristi Bailey, MD
“I absolutely love what I do. As a comprehensive clinical ophthalmologist and surgeon, I have the privilege of caring for patients with a variety of ophthalmic needs, including cataract, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma and eyelid disease. I so enjoy getting to know my patients and their families. Helping them to improve their functioning, retain their independence, and do the things they enjoy, by maintaining or restoring vision is truly an honor. I am committed to providing the highest quality of care by understanding the unique needs of each of my patients and by constantly maintaining the highest standards in disease diagnosis, treatment advances, and microsurgical techniques.”
