Dr. Philip Brunetti

Comprehensive Ophthalmologist

Fairbanks, AK

Dr. Philip Brunetti is a comprehensive ophthalmologist and surgeon dedicated to delivering high-quality eye care close to home. He partners with Bartlett Regional Hospital’s Ophthalmology Clinic to expand access in Juneau and the Southeast Alaska region, with an early focus on care for age-related macular degeneration and treatment of secondary cataracts after prior surgery. Patients appreciate his practical, step-by-step approach, clear explanations and attention to safety before, during and after procedures. In clinic, Dr. Brunetti provides thorough evaluations, helps patients understand their diagnosis and discusses medical and laser options when appropriate. For people with macular degeneration, he offers anti-VEGF injection therapy and ongoing monitoring. He also performs YAG capsulotomy to restore vision when posterior capsular opacification causes blur or glare following cataract surgery. Dr. Brunetti completed medical school at LSU Health Sciences Center in New Orleans, a general-surgery internship at Brandon Regional Hospital, and an ophthalmology residency at the University of South Florida in Tampa.
