Mark Kleinman, MD

It has been another exciting year for me in our great field of vitreoretinal disease. In May of 2018, I relocated to the Tri-cities, TN area and joined Southeastern Retina Associates after nearly 12 years at the University of Kentucky (almost 5 as a faculty member). The move was coupled with another amazing option to continue my basic science research program at East Tennessee State University where I am now Professor of Surgery and a member of the Center for Excellence in Inflammation Research. In the next few years, I will be building up my practice and research program while looking to bring clinical trials to the area for next generation therapeutics for AMD and DR.
