And the best part of all is,
You Don't Need Glasses Or Contact Lenses To
Read Your Book After Having Dr. Patterson
Carry
Out This Kind Of Professional Surgery On Your
Eyes!
You see, Dr. Patterson has
been a doctor in Tennessee for almost 20 years.
He received his medical degree from the
University of Tennessee in 1984. He spent four
more years in Memphis to complete his specialty
training in Ophthalmology. He began his practice
in Crossville in the summer of 1988 and has been
there ever since.
Early on, he decided he was
going to emphasize cataract and refractive
surgery into his practice. As a medical doctor,
he sees patients with all types of eye problems.
But, as a surgeon, he wanted to concentrate on
learning, studying, performing and perfecting
his skills as a Cataract surgeon.
He had studied and read
everything he could find on the science of
Cataract and refractive surgery and felt he was
ready to begin. He took the first step himself
by having radical keratotomy performed on his
own eyes. He decided he would not operate on
anyone else unless he was willing to undergo the
procedure himself.
Dr. Patterson Performed Surgery
On His Own Wife!
Soon after his own surgery,
Dr. Patterson performed his very first
refractive surgery on what would probably be the
most critical patient of his career... his own
wife! He said he wanted to be so convinced of
the value of his own skill, he wanted his first
case to be performed on someone he was very
close to. And that was the beginning of a very
successful and very prestigious career.
Dr. Patterson serves on the
editorial board for Ophthalmology Management and
he has given numerous presentations for
professional organizations around the world.
He's even an attending physician at Cumberland
Medical Center and a consulting physician at
Cookeville Regional Medical Center and
Livingston Regional Hospital.
