Dr. Lichtig went on to complete a rotating medicine and surgery internship at BluePearl Veterinary Partners, in addition to completing a three-year ophthalmology residency at MedVet Jupiter.
Dr. Andrew Lichtig has a special interest in ophthalmology because of the eye’s unique ability to often reveal a diagnosis, simply by performing a comprehensive exam, as well as the refined technique and training needed to perform delicate ophthalmic microsurgery.
