Dr. Fink is an Israeli Board Certified Eye Surgeon and Fellow of the Royal College of Opthalmologists (London), having trained both in England and in Israel at Tel Hashomer, Tel Aviv University Eye Department.
He receives patients with all types of eye and vision problems at his general clinic in Ra'anana, Israel working with the Meuchedet and Leumit Health Funds. He also receives patients privately both with general eye and vision problems, and for laser vision correction procedures.
Dr Fink worked in the specialist Corneal Clinic at Tel Hashomer Hosptial, and as such has an extended knowledge and special interest in solving dry eye and chronic inflammatory eye problems.
Dr. Fink is a senior laser surgeon with American Laser, one of the largest laser vision correction companies in Israel. In the past he was a senior surgeon with Optimax, the leading laser vision correction company in the UK. He has performed thousands of laser treatments over the last 10 years, with excellent results and enjoys the use of the most modern technology.
Between 1997-1999 Dr. Fink attended centres in Manchester and London, specialising in Laser Vision Correction and Cataract Surgery, and as such is one of the few laser surgeons in Israel to have 'super specialised' in the field of refractive surgery. He has published scientific research papers on vision correction and other topics.
Dr. Fink has trained and advised new laser surgeons both in Israel and abroad in Germany, The Netherlands, and the UK. He has also spent periods working in Gibraltar, Prince of Wales Eye Department in Sydney, Australia, and St John's Eye Hospital in Jerusalem.
Dr Fink qualified as a Family Doctor before specialising in Ophthalmology. He believes that most diagnoses can be made simply by listening to the patient and that a holistic approach is advantageous in many treatment situations.
