About Me

Dr. Purak Parikh is a board-certified ophthalmologist who specializes in cornea, external disease, and refractive surgery. He completed his medical school at Dartmouth/Geisel School of Medicine, where he was recognized with the Arnold P. Gold Humanism in Medicine award. He then completed his ophthalmology residency at the University of Pennsylvania/Scheie Eye Institute, earning the Resident Teaching Award. Dr. Parikh further advanced his expertise through a fellowship in cornea, anterior segment, and refractive surgery at the University of Michigan/Kellogg Eye Institute.

In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Parikh has served as President of the New Hampshire Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons.

Originally from New Jersey, Dr. Parikh was drawn to New Hampshire by the great outdoors.
