Led by Dr. Peter Gehlbach, a highly accomplished retina specialist, our team at RetinaEd.com is driven by a shared passion for improving the lives of patients with retinal diseases. Our dedicated research team works tirelessly to advance our understanding of these conditions and develop innovative approaches to patient care and education.

​

At the forefront of our team is our helpful and bubbly Clinical Program Specialist. With a warm and compassionate demeanor, Heather is always ready to lend a helping hand, provide guidance, and address any concerns or questions patients may have. Her expertise and attentiveness ensure that patients feel supported throughout their journey.

​

Complementing our Clinical Program Specialist is our committed and personable Health Educator. Matt is dedicated to empowering patients and caregivers with comprehensive knowledge about their eye disease. Through informative resources, educational materials, and personalized guidance, our health educator equips individuals with the tools they need to navigate their condition and seek additional support outside the realm of the disease itself.

​

Together, our team is united in the mission of enhancing the patient experience. We believe that education and support go hand in hand, and we are committed to fostering a sense of empowerment for every individual affected by a retinal disease.

In Development

Our interactive avatar conversation is being designed to be your friendly and informative companion on your journey learning about retinal diseases. While our avatar is still under development, it aims to provide helpful insights, answer your questions, and offer guidance to the best of its abilities. Our avatar will not be a replacement for your trusted eye doctor’s expertise and personalized care. Instead, it will complement your doctor’s guidance, providing additional support and information to enhance your understanding and empower you to make informed decisions about your eye health.
