N.D. (Valley News Live)— North Dakota Eye Clinic (NDEC) announced today that it will begin offering in-office injections for retinal disease (intravitreal injections) locally starting in September, providing continuity of care for patients affected by the closure of eye services at Altru Health System
Based in Grand Forks, North Dakota Eye Clinic is a regional leader in ophthalmic care, and this new service is aimed at maintaining and improving access for patients throughout the region. The new clinic will be led by Amina Husain, MD, and supported by NDEC clinical staff already experienced in caring for retina patients
NDEC is also welcoming Dr. Erica Wiegandt, a long-time optometrist from Altru, who joins the practice in August — giving many transitioning patients a familiar, trusted face as part of their continued care
“We’re excited to bring this service to our patients throughout the region,” said Dr. Mark Sczepanski, owner and lead ophthalmologist at North Dakota Eye Clinic. “We’re especially glad to have Dr. Husain’s experience with this type of injection therapy, which will help patients transitioning from Altru move to NDEC smoothly and without interruption to their care.”
Patients currently receiving injection therapy elsewhere, or whose care has been affected by the Altru closure, can contact North Dakota Eye Clinic at 701-775-3151 or click here to schedule a consultation
