" Being a retinal and uveitis specialist for over 33 years has been a true honor and privilege. Personally, my tenure at AVRUC has been an extremely rewarding yet humbling experience. I have learned much from our kind and gracious patients, partner physicians, referring doctors, and staff that I have treated and worked with over the years. I learned to become a better person and physician by treating and caring for everyone as you would your own family members. At AVRUC, this belief of treating every patient as one's family member lies at the core of our mission to help in preventing blindness, improving vision and health, and guides our future endeavors."— Dr. Moorthy
