About Veena V. Arun, MD
Helping people live a more full life is a privilege. Specifically, helping to restore and enhance vision is a tremendous opportunity that is very gratifying to me as a physician. I can directly make a difference for my patients and the community.

I came in as a self referral for glaucoma. Doctor was excellent at both doing the tests and explaining the tests.

Dr Arun also had no idea about my current conditions despite me emailing her which she never responded to. Did not remember who she's referred me to or what we discussed. There is incorrect information in my after visit summary about history and current condition. She stated she was a glaucoma specialist when we first met her and explained at the last visit that she is not. Very poor patient care and would like to know who to report this information too. Gave me a glaucoma diagnosis with no change in treatment. She did not advise me when to return for care if any complications but in the after care summary documented that she did. She simply sent me on my way after checking the pressure in my eyes.
