- Primary Care“When you leave the doctor’s office, sometimes, you are just not exactly sure what the doctor has told you. Dr. Crawford, after she examines me, she sits down with a piece of paper, writes down everything that has happened that day and then goes over it with me, the whole scenario, so we both understand what is going on. Then, she sends it off to my primary care doctor so he also knows what’s going on.”

Determined, Dr. Ginsburg accompanied his grandmother to Boston, where she met with one of the country’s best retina specialists at Harvard. He recommended cataract surgery, low vision aids, and visual rehabilitation to maximize her vision; but more importantly, he allayed her fear of blindness and educated her about her disease. Inspired, Dr. Ginsburg later went to Harvard and became a retina surgeon.
