Mr Douglas Newman
Consultant Ophthalmologist
MA, BM BCh, FRCOphth
I have extensive experience in all aspects of ophthalmology. I provide consultation facilities for private patients at Spire Cambridge Lea Hospital.
My clinical practice comprises general ophthalmology with sub-specialty interests in cataract surgery, vitreo-retinal surgery (including retinal detachment, vitreous haemorrhage and macular disorders), and medical retina disorders (including macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy).
I am a consultant ophthalmologist at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge.
I qualified from the University of Oxford Medical School. My specialist training in ophthalmology was undertaken at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Moorfields Eye Hospital and Manchester Royal Eye Hospital. My advanced sub-specialty training included a clinical fellowship in vitreo-retinal surgery and a clinical fellowship in medical retina disorders.
