Dr. Alan Downie, an experienced Ophthalmologist from Associated Eye Care. Dr. Downie will perform cataract surgery at our main campus in Baldwin. He will begin seeing patients on Friday, April 26, 2019.

Dr. Downie completed his undergraduate studies at Carleton College in Northfield, MN. He received his medical degree from The Ohio State University College of Medicine and remained there for ophthalmic residency. Dr. Downie completed fellowship training in vitreo-retinal surgery at the Charles Retina Institute in Memphis, TN. He joined Associated Eye Care in 1995. Other than cataract surgery, Dr. Downie’s practice emphasizes medical and surgical management of diseases of the retina and vitreous humor, including retinal detachments, macular degeneration and diabetes. Dr. Downie holds regular clinic at Associated Eye Care in Hugo, New Richmond, and Stillwater.

“As my patient, you can expect the same standard of care that I would desire for myself or provide for my family,” said Dr. Downie. “I take pride in helping people regain the ability to perform activities that poor vision may have compromised over time. Maintaining good vision can improve overall health and safety, reveal new opportunities, and reopen doors that may have seemed closed. Cataracts do not have to mean the end to great vision.”
