Deepak Raja, MD is a native of Englewood, FL. He attended Duke University in Durham, NC for his undergraduate studies and received a degree in biomedical and electrical engineering. He then attended the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Miami, FL where he received his medical degree. He stayed on to do his internship at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami and completed his ophthalmology residency at Vanderbilt Eye Institute in Nashville, TN. Following this, he did a cornea and external disease fellowship at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, MN before joining the University of Alabama-Birmingham as a Clinical Instructor for two years, where he helped teach residents. He was recently appointed as an Assistant Professor at the UCF College of Medicine. Besides being board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology, he is a member of the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, and the Cornea Society. He is also the current Department Chairman of Ophthalmology for Orlando Health and has been named one of Orlando’s Best Doctors since 2013! In his spare time, he enjoys public speaking, comedy, writing, woodworking, running, biking, yoga and being a dad. He is a passionate basketball fan and enjoys cheering on the Orlando Magic and Duke Blue Devils. One of my favorite phrases is ‘Be proactive, not reactive!’ For instance, if I see dry eyes in a preoperative exam, I’ll treat that first and foremost before doing their cataract surgery. Though it may be annoying for the patient to have to wait, I know that their visual outcome and comfort will the better for it, even if they never know it!

my goodness this office is perfection from the 1st personto last

My experience from phone contact, to the office appearance, to the first person who greets me to each precious tech that exams me to the amazing doctor who concludes my situation and clearly shares what the exact condition of my eyes are, what needs to be done and how, to the warm answering any questions and kindly wishing me a great day! Running sentence which you may clean up. I am so grateful for this office and all who are a part of it. Dr, Raja is a million dollar doctor. I leave here feeling so blessed. Thank you from my heart. Seriously LOVE you all.

thankful for your experience care and concern

My diabetic son required a referral to a specialist for profound cornea swelling/inflammation with complete vision loss in one eye. As a parent I was terrified, Dr. Raja's experience and concern for my son's well-being was extraordinary, going above and beyond and scheduling bloodwork to delve deeper into the cause of the inflammation. I am so thankful for his and his staffs' attention to detail and for making my son feel better almost immediately and continuing his care to resolve the issue.
