Launching a retina subspecialty involved coordination between the ASC’s director of operations, nursing director and surgical technician, and vendor partners Alcon and Oculus Surgical.

Led by CEO Austin Cheng, Gramercy Surgery Center also has a location in Manhattan.

“We could not have asked for a smoother first day, and as our team said at the end of the day, ‘It’s like we’ve been operating together for years,'” Mr. Cheng wrote on LinkedIn.
