Evaluating Laser Vision Correction Surgeons in Walnut Creek

A time-tested method of evaluating a physician is to review his academic performance. Consistently performing at the top of one's class, in the most demanding academic environments, is likely to be a good predictive measure of your Walnut Creek LASIK vision correction surgeon's intellectual capacity and dedication. So how do you confirm where your Walnut Creek laser vision correction surgeon earned his M.D.?

All LASIK vision correction surgeons in Walnut Creek are listed on the California Medical Board website (www.medbd.ca.gov/Lookup.htm). If you know the full name of your Walnut Creek laser vision correction surgeon, enter it on this site. You'll then see where he earned his M.D., and whether he has any disciplinary actions.

You'll also want to evaluate the experience of your Walnut Creek LASIK vision correction doctor. You definitely don't want to entrust your eyes to a novice LASIK vision correction surgeon in Walnut Creek. At this stage in the market's development, veteran laser vision correction surgeons in Walnut Creek have performed at least 5,000 procedures. On the other hand if your Walnut Creek LASIK vision correction surgeon boasts that he's performed more procedures than anyone else, think twice: when it comes to delicate corneal surgery, high volumes don't always translate into high quality.


Dedication and Leadership

Besides credentials and experience, here are several other questions you'll want to consider when evaluating your surgeon:

  • To what extent is your Walnut Creek laser vision correction surgeon dedicated to the field (is he 100% laser vision correction) and to you (does he spend significant time with you in the pre-op stage of your care)?
  • Does your surgeon share a laser with other Walnut Creek LASIK vision correction doctors, or does he own and exclusively operate his laser systems?
  • To what degree does your laser vision correction surgeon in Walnut Creek controls the patient care environment, including facilities, equipment and staff?
