About Me
Dr. Russel H. Dinh is a retina specialist and vitreoretinal surgeon dedicated to safeguarding and restoring sight with the same honesty, compassion, and attention he would offer his own family. He cares for adults with medical and surgical diseases of the retina and vitreous, combining advanced imaging with evidence-based treatments to help patients understand their condition and choose the path that fits their goals. Patients can expect clear explanations, a steady surgical hand, and a team approach to long-term vision health.
Dr. Dinh completed ophthalmology residency at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital/Washington Hospital Center, where he served as chief resident, followed by fellowship training in vitreoretinal diseases and surgery at the Vanderbilt Eye Institute. He earned his MD at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine after graduate study in physiology and biophysics at Georgetown University and dual undergraduate degrees in chemistry and economics from the University of Virginia. He has presented work at national meetings and authored peer-reviewed publications on retinal disorders and surgical outcomes.
