UNC Ophthalmology is thrilled to recognize Senior Resident (PGY4) Luke Ford, MD, for being named UNC Hospitals Hillsborough (HBH) campus “Surgeon Surgical Star of the Month” by APP staff peers. Each month, HBH campus perioperative and anesthesia care team members select a surgeon on their patient care team who demonstrates excellence as a role model and team-oriented partner in delivering patient care. Notably, Dr. Ford is the first-ever resident to be chosen for this honor.
An exceptional UNC Ophthalmology senior resident and surgeon in training, Dr. Ford was commended for his exemplary qualities as a learner and team member, including his drive to learn two ophthalmic surgical devices (Constellation and Centurion Vision Systems) that improve patient outcomes by increasing surgical precision and efficiency.
