Physician advocating for patients' safety.
 

I am writing as a concerned citizen in the Commonwealth about non-surgeon performing eye surgeries.  I oppose suggested proposal.  

Please help uphold the highest standards for every surgical procedure by ensuring appropriate training, what is achieved through medical school training, residencies and fellowships. 

Very respectfully, 

Dr Beata Barreto
