About Me

Dr. Nisarg Joshi is a board-certified, fellowship-trained vitreoretinal specialist with the Florida Retina Institute. He diagnoses and treats macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears, and many other retinal conditions, offering both medical therapies and advanced retinal surgery. Patients often see him for second opinions and long-term care; his goal is to explain findings clearly and create plans that preserve independence and daily function.

Dr. Joshi earned his medical degree at Sidney Kimmel Medical College (Thomas Jefferson University) and completed his ophthalmology residency at Geisinger Medical Center, where he served as chief resident and received the Best Presentation Award. He further specialized with a vitreoretinal surgery fellowship at the University of South Florida. His background also includes an internal medicine internship at Lankenau Medical Center and undergraduate study at Wilkes University.

Actively involved in research, Dr. Joshi has published in the Journal of Vitreroretinal Disease and authored multiple book chapters, focusing on conditions like central serous retinopathy and medication toxicity. He also participates in clinical trials for dry age-related macular degeneration and uveitis. Outside of medicine, he enjoys spending time with his family and dog, traveling, hiking, kayaking, and is fluent in Gujarati.
