Why industry asks for Barry S. Seibel, MD:
The demand for Dr. Seibel's technical advice is largely due to his ability
to bridge the disciplines of clinical medicine and engineering, marrying his
surgical experience with his background in math and physics (read more about
this in My Approach to Medicine ).
For Dr. Seibel, consulting is wonderfully synergistic with practicing medicine.
Being closely involved in the current state-of-the-art ophthalmic technology
allows him to utilize and evaluate this technology in light of what advances
he knows lie on the horizon. Dr. Seibel's involvement in consulting further strengthens
his experience and knowledge, which is then utilized in future consulting, thus
forming a continuous bond. While both Dr. Seibel and the companies for whom he
consults continue to gain further insights, the real beneficiary is you, the
patient!
