Our Griffin offices will be Dr. Baumrind’s primary practice location. He is a surgical retina specialist, treating such conditions as diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears and detachment, macular degeneration, vein occlusions, hereditary retinal issues, and more. Dr. Baumrind has a clinical interest in the treatment and management of diabetic retinal issues and macular degeneration.
