About Benjamin
I am a very dedicated and down to earth optometrist with adroit and proficient clinical practice. Having attained my Bachelor of Optometry at the prestigious Makerere University, my love for Optometry has only grown ever since. The aim is now to grow in this field of eye care both academically and clinically. I am very passionate about what I do, providing comprehensive eye exams, and proper patient education and above all, patient satisfaction to everyone that walks in.
Patient care philosophy
Every patient is unique, so patient care must be individualized, as each patient has unique needs that must be met. Patient satisfaction is at the heart of everything I do, so my commitment is always driven to delivering optimal vision and promoting excellent eye health for every individual.
Personal interests
Away from clinical practice, I enjoy playing football, bike riding, good music and giving back to the community whenever I can. This includes attending outreach programs and camps organized by the community leadership and spreading awareness about eye health and eye care through radio talk shows and social media.
