We are so excited to be recognizing our 2024 Person of Vision:
Dr. Stephanie Vanderveldt
Dr. Vanderveldt was born in New York, New York and grew up in Clearwater, Florida. She received her undergraduate degree in anthropology from Princeton University before moving on to medical school at the Duke University Medical School. Prior to medical school, she served as a Teaching Fellow at Harvard University. She then returned to Florida for both her Ophthalmology Residency and her Retina Fellowship at the prestigious Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, which has consistently ranked as the top eye hospital in the country for the past 22 years. Dr. Vanderveldt has found her home in Georgia working at Georgia Retina.
Dr. Vanderveldt chose a career in medicine because she wanted to make a difference in people’s lives. She selected her specialty because she loves restoring sight to people. “Ophthalmology, and particularly Retina, is a rare specialty that allows a physician to be both a surgeon healing people in the operating room and also a medical doctor who sees people and treats them in the clinic. I get to see some of my patients every month for years, and that fosters a very special bond,” Dr. Vanderveldt notes.
