Posted by: Florida Eye Microsurgical Institute in 2013-11 Issue

Florida Eye Microsurgical Institute, already a fixture in Wellington since 2005, has broken ground and started construction on its new free- standing comprehensive eye practice, located at 2575 State Road 7, in the Wellington Green Mall Complex, behind Whole Foods and directly next to the DCA. The 7,500 square foot building will have 3 waiting rooms, 14 exam rooms and 8 testing/treatment rooms. More importantly it will have physicians Lee Friedman, Randy Katz, Jason Gorscak and Barry Schechter delivering the same quality care and compassion Wellington residents have come to depend on.

The doctors are looking forward to watching their new home take shape. “We have simply outgrown our current space and we need to be able to accommodate our patients as well as make room for the eye care needs of the growing Wellington community,” said the Institute’s Macular Degeneration & Diabetic Retinopathy Specialist Dr. Randy Katz.

“We feel right at home in Wellington,” added Cataract, Glaucoma and Comprehensive Ophthalmologic Specialist Dr. Jason Gorscak. “We don’t just work here; we live here and have strong ties to the community.”

The Institute, under construction by Anderson Moore, is expected to open its doors late March 2014. Like the doctors, Florida Eye Administrator Jason Feuer is also excited about the building. “This undertaking is not only an investment in the Wellington community, but will also offer additional local employment opportunities.”
