Their services include everything from comprehensive eye exams and i-office lasers and procedures to cataract surgery, glaucoma management, diabetic eye care, and dry eye diseases.
Born and raised in New Jersey, Dr. Scott developed an early interest in ophthalmology, thanks to time spent at the office with her father.
With an impressive educational background, she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Public Health from the University of Maryland in College Park, and her Master of Science degree in Biomedical Science from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery, which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diseases, functions, and anatomy of the eye. Ophthalmologists are also surgeons. They repair traumatic injuries to the eye and may perform cataract, glaucoma, and corneal surgery.
