Karen Winchester, MD
Board Certified Ophthalmologist
Dr. Winchester earned her medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. She did her internship in Internal Medicine at Cornell University New York Hospital and completed her ophthalmology residency at the University of Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary in Chicago. Dr. Winchester then completed a fellowship in Cornea and External Disease at the University of Iowa.
She is a graduate of Amherst College, where she double majored in Philosophy and Language. After graduation, she became a foreign language teacher at a Manhattan private school. "In my free time, I volunteered in the Children's Ward of Sloan-Kettering Memorial Cancer Center and a light went on inside me. I had to become a doctor."
