Meet the doctor


I was born in Athens in 1982 and growing up among doctors, I soon discovered my interest in patient care and scientific research. After graduating from Athens College, I studied at the Medical School of the University of Crete, where I graduated with honours in 2007.

Subsequently, I trained in Ophthalmology at the Hospital of Corinth and the 2nd University Eye Clinic of Athens. At the same time I started my collaboration with the Athens Vision Eye Clinic where I was trained in refractive surgery (laser myopia correction) and undertook the design and implementation of clinical research protocols. After that, my special involvement with glaucoma began by apprenticing alongside renowned glaucoma specialists in the treatment of challenging glaucoma cases. Completing my training in 2016, I successfully passed the Greek and European board exams and was named Ophthalmic Surgeon and Fellow of the European Board of Ophthalmology.

In 2018, I joined the prestigious Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, where I specialized in the medical and surgical treatment of glaucoma and the management of complex cataract surgery cases.

In London, I also attended seminars on injectable treatments in cosmetic ophthalmology (Botox and Fillers), as well as the famous Moorfields training programme in refractive surgery.

In 2021, after 20 years of studies, surgical training, publications in scientific journals and presentations in national and international conferences, I founded my private practice in Kifissia, where I offer my services to new and old patients with a great sense of responsibility and respect for the patient. At the same time, I continue my collaboration as a Medical Associate with the Athens Vision Ophthalmology Clinic and remain an Honorary Consultant for Moorfields Eye Hospital.

I am a member of the Athens Medical Association, the UK General Medical Council, the French National Medical Council, as well as the Greek Ophthalmology Society, the Greek Glaucoma Society and the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery.

About our surgery


Precision Ophthalmology Kifissia is the realization of a dream of more than 20 years; the creation of a space dedicated to health care where high quality services shall be provided in a friendly and welcoming environment that promotes the feeling of safety and trust. Our starting point is treating all patients with dignity and respect.

We have created a modern surgery in which the visitor can feel calm and pleasant, as if they were at home. We want the interaction with the doctor and office staff not to be limited to the typical examination, but evolve to be a special experience that patients and their carers enjoy by actively participating throughout their stay in our office.

We cover the full range of eye problems, from simple spectacle check-ups to complex and sight-threatening diseases. Whatever the reason for your visit, we perform a thorough examination of your eyes and take the time to explain our findings and answer all questions that may arise.

Ophthalmology is an ever-growing specialty that has received a huge boost in recent decades thanks to advances in technology. Increasingly advanced equipment has boosted our diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities and, as such, an ophthalmology practice today must be properly equipped to provide patients with comprehensive care. The primary prerequisite, of course, remains the adequate and evergrowing knowledge of the doctor, which is ensured by quality training and constant academic pursuit.

In the center of Kifissia, 30 meters from a car station, in a space designed to be easily accessible by people with mobility issues and friendly to children and adults of all ages, we operate separate areas dedicated to visual fields, optical coherence tomography (OCT), injectable treatments (Botox), optometric checks and eye examinations. This ensures smooth flow and helps avoid delays and increased waiting time.

At Precision Ophthalmology Kifissia, we take care of your eyes... like our own!
