About Me

Dr. Jonathan Woolfson is a board-certified ophthalmic surgeon and the founder and medical director of the Woolfson Eye Institute. With over 100,000 LASIK procedures performed, he is one of the most experienced LASIK surgeons in North America. His expertise is sought by professional athletes, celebrities, and business leaders, and he has been chosen by more than 300 eye doctors to perform their own LASIK surgery.

Dr. Woolfson received his medical degree from Vanderbilt University and completed his ophthalmology residency and internship at Emory University. He further honed his skills through fellowship training abroad with an internationally acclaimed excimer laser pioneer. He is a clinical investigator for leading laser companies and has trained over 100 LASIK surgeons as a national proctor.

A significant part of Dr. Woolfson's practice is dedicated to treating complex cases and patients who have had previous LASIK procedures elsewhere. He is known for his patient-centered approach, providing detailed pre-operative education and personal attention to ensure comfort and confidence. His memberships in the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, the International Society of Refractive Surgery, and the American Medical Association reflect his commitment to the highest standards of eye care.
