Eye doctor joins Davie County Hospital
MOCKSVILLE ó Dr. Gregory Temas, founder and medical director at the Temas Eye Center in Winston-Salem, has joined the staff of Davie County Hospital to provide cataract surgery.
Temas is known for performing some of the most advanced cataract surgeries in the country and provides services at Davie County Hospital on Thursday mornings.
“Our mission in Davie County is to provide cataract surgery with advanced implant techniques,” Temas said. “Best of all, local residents don’t have to leave their hometown to take advantage of state-of-the-art surgery techniques.
“Although we will initially only offer cataract surgeries at Davie County Hospital, our goal is to make the hospital a one-stop shop for eye care with the same level of comprehensive eye care services that we now provide at the Temas Eye Center in Winston-Salem.”
Temas, who came to Winston-Salem in 1991, pioneered local use of many modern eye surgeries, including no-needle-no-stitch cataract surgery, radial keratotomy, implantable contacts, laser refractive surgery (LASIK) and multifocal lens implants.
He joined Davie County Hospital at the request of several physicians in the Mocksville area.
“For some time, we’ve seen a growing need to perform cataract surgery in Davie County,” said Dr. Steve Laymon, a Mocksville-based optometrist who led the effort to recruit Dr. Temas.
I’m excited to have Dr. Temas at Davie County Hospital. Having him here is a better way to locally serve the needs of our patients from Davie County.”
If demand is sufficient, Temas said he may add more days to his Thursday morning surgery schedule at Davie County Hospital.
In addition, Dr. Dan Gardner, who has 30 years experience working in satellite medical ophthalmology offices, will join the staff at Davie County Hospital in April.
Gardner will handle pre- and post-op visits and will offer second opinions in conjunction with Temas.
Temas received his medial training at Case Western University School of Medicine and completed residency in ophthalmology at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. He is a member of several professional medical societies, including the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons.
