Dr. George A. Fournier
Comprehensive Ophthalmology
Glaucoma Management
Preventative Medicine
His passion for world travel, scuba diving and cycling, gives Dr. Fournier a well rounded and honest perspective on life. A father of three children in college, an avid movie goer and a student himself of foreign languages, including French and Russian, he is up to date and able to communicate with patients of all ages and interests.
He understands the importance of educating his patients about all available options and with that knowledge encourages his patients to take an active role in any decisions about their health.
There are few doctors who have the credentials of Dr. George Fournier, but even fewer who have the compassion, the commitment and ability to care for his patients the way Dr. Fournier does.

Dr. Cassandra B. Onofrey
Oculoplastic Surgeon
Originally drawn to South Florida for the educational opportunities, living in South Florida has given her the ability to enjoy her lifetime love of boating and outdoor activities with her 2 children - using the appropriate sunscreen and wide brimmed hats, of course.
Dr. Onofrey is one of the few ophthalmologists in South Florida who is trained in Oculoplastic surgery. Oculoplastics includes a wide variety of highly skilled and delicate surgical procedures around the orbit (eye socket), the eyelids, the tear ducts, and the face for both cosmetic and reconstructive purposes. Dr. Onofrey provides a variety of services to rejuvenate your appearance – surgical and nonsurgical options are available. Included in her areas of expertise are: Blepharoplasty (Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery), BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections, Periocular Skin Cancer Management, and Reconstructive Eyelid Surgery.
As a boater, Dr. Onofrey understands firsthand the effects of excessive sun exposure and believes patient education, prevention and early detection are critical in the management of periocular skin cancers. Open communication and patient education are the guiding principles of Dr. Onofrey’s practice, which benefits her patients and helps her enjoy providing oculoplastic services to the South Florida community.
Education & Training
Back packing in Europe, Costa Rica, Southeast Asia and Mexico must have contributed to Dr. Kalski being a pioneer in the use of specialty intraocular lenses such as the Restor, Acrysof Toric IOL and Crystalens. He was also performing Lasik procedures in Australia during his corneal and refractive surgery Fellowship before some of the methods were approved here in the United States.
With over 8,000 cataract surgeries and 5,000 LASIK procedures performed, his experience and commitment speak for themselves. This can only be matched by his commitment, when, as a student he funded his entire education himself by the same hard work ethic.
