What Ophthalmologists Wish All Physicians Knew

Dr. Rand Diab is a board-certified, comprehensive ophthalmologist in the Chicago suburbs of Northwest Indiana, practicing for over 15 years.  We discuss what she thinks all physicians should know about ophthalmology, which starts with how to spell it.  We discuss acute eye injuries and why every pink eye doesn’t get treated with antibiotics drops.  She also really deflates my balloon when she dispels the myth that an avulsed eyeball can be kept in milk until it can be reattached.  Dr. Diab. lives in the Chicago area with her husband and 3 children. She loves family, friends, and fitness.  She shares her passion for patient education on her website and her life experiences on her blog and social media.  You can find her at www.randdiab.com or @randdiabmd on Instagram and Twitter.   This and all episodes have been expertly produced by voice-over artist Carin Gilfry at GilfryStudios.com Find this and all episodes on your favorite podcast platform at PhysiciansGuidetoDoctoring.com Please be sure to leave a five star review, a nice comment and SHARE!!!
