Alan Aker, MD
Dr. Alan Aker, Co-founder and Director of the Aker Kasten Eye Center, has been considered by his colleagues and patients alike to be one of the most skilled and compassionate cataract surgeons in the country. Always seeking the “higher mountain”, he has purposed to be the best in his field, employing the latest in technology and keeping the patient’s outcome, comfort and care as his primary focus. The staff at the center are more than familiar with Dr. Aker’s recurring statement and personal example, “We should never be content today with what we did yesterday…we need to constantly strive for perfection.” This relates both to maintaining the highest skills as a surgeon as well as personally treating his patients with dignity and value.
