Dr. David Goldberger has been in practice in Broward County, Florida since 1977.  In his general ophthalmology practice he cares for a wide variety of problems including cataracts, glaucoma, diabetes, macular degeneration and eyes bothered by dryness and allergies.  Prior to coming to south Florida, Dr. Goldberger was schooled and lived in New York City.  He is cum laude graduate (B.S. chemistry) of the City College of New York and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.  He received his medical degree (M.D.) in 1973 from the New York University School of Medicine and was chosen outstanding Florida alumnus of that school for 1996.  While attending N.Y.U. he won one of only twenty-four New York State Regents Scholarships for medicine awarded to the thousands of medical students in New York City.  He completed a medical internship at Lenox Hill Hospital in 1974.  His ophthalmology training was obtained at the Long Island Jewish-Hillside Medical Center in 1977, where he also served as chief resident.

Dr. Goldberger is board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and is a fellow of the American Academy of Ophthalmology.  He is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons.  He is an active participant in several local ophthalmology societies and numerous other continuing education venues.

Dr. Goldberger has performed thousands of cataract extractions with intraocular lens implants in his thirty-three years of practice and has been performing the technically demanding small-incision type of surgery for more than twenty years.  He completed a mini-fellowship in LASIK and Refractive Surgery in Bogota, Columbia, the birthplace of refractive surgery under the auspices of ISRS and the world-renowned Barraquer Institute.  He has been involved in clinical research trials for pharmaceutical companies and intraocular lens implant manufacturers.  Dr. Goldberger was one of the first local ophthalmologists to perform ophthalmic surgery in an outpatient setting at one of the countries first ambulatory surgical facilities.
