“Having recently attended my 40th medical school reunion, celebrated 39 years of wedded bliss, and completed 33 years of rewarding, litigation-free general ophthalmology practice in Lynchburg, Virginia, I decided it was time to procrastinate no longer before contributing financially to the William H. Havener Eye Institute Fund. I realize that none of us can stand on the sidelines for very long without undermining the full potential of the OSU Department of Ophthalmology. Recognizing familiar Columbus physicians and many of my fellow residents from the early 1970’s on the donor list, reassures me that the current residency program remains strong and the leadership faithful to the core values and ongoing mission of the department. It is my hope that my gift to the Havener Fund will assist in the sustainability of ophthalmic education and quality eye care at Ohio State.”
