Dr Crosby’s approach
Dr Crosby sees patients not just from Singapore but also from all over South-East Asia, Australasia and Europe, including patients with complex problems referred to him by other ophthalmologists. He enjoys spending time with his patients in order to solve their problems, whether simple or complex.
His approach is to spend time carefully listening to the patient and conducting a thorough examination, supported by investigations and imaging technology. He strives to provide a friendly, tailored and evidence-based approach to patient care and prides himself on providing clear explanations and involving the patient fully in all decision making.
Since many of his patients are based internationally, he collaborates closely on the management of his patients with his extensive network of colleagues both locally and around the world to ensure that his patients receive continuity of care.
