Today, we’re honoring two special 28-year anniversaries at Retina Specialty Institute!

Twenty-eight years ago, Dr. Gupta and his family founded our company with a vision of providing exceptional retinal care.

That vision continues today through expert patient care, ongoing innovation, and leadership in clinical trials that give patients access to leading-edge treatments.

We are proud to celebrate Dr. Gupta’s leadership, dedication, and lasting impact on the patients and communities we serve!

Later today, we’ll celebrate another member of our team who is also marking the same milestone.
