About Me

He provides thoughtful, individualized treatment plans and explains complex conditions in plain language, aiming to protect and restore sight for people with both common and rare retinal diseases. In addition to clinical excellence, he has participated in educating trainees and in clinical trials.

Dr. Jiménez earned his B.S. in Biochemistry with a piano performance concentration at Millsaps College (magna cum laude) and received his M.D. from the University of Mississippi Medical Center, where he also completed an internal medicine internship and an ophthalmology residency, serving as chief resident.
