Bio

Dr. Siatkowski is a cornea, external disease, uveitis, cataract, conjunctival, and anterior segment ocular surgeon. After completing her medical degree at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University in New York, she completed her residency in ophthalmology and her cornea and external disease fellowship at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, University of Miami.

Dr. Siatkowski manages an extremely busy clinic and surgery schedule to help restore vision to her patients. Dr. Siatkowski’s  practice is focused on Fuch’s dystrophy, corneal transplant, endothelial transplant, keratoprothesis, dry eye, severe ocular surface disease, autoimmune diseases, Sjogren’s syndrome, chemical injury, and ocular surface cancers.

For Dr. Siatkowski, restoring vision is what it is all about. The combination of basic and clinical research at the Institute gives her the very latest tools to combat corneal diseases. Her access to such ground-breaking technology and procedures, and her experience, has helped Dr. Siatkowski make the cornea/external disease program at the Dean McGee Eye Institute (DMEI) one of the top-tier programs in the nation. Dr. Siatkowski is a mom of three and married to Dr. R. Michael Siatkowski, a pediatric and neuro-ophthalmologist also in practice at DMEI.

Patient Testimonials

Dr Rhea Siatkowski is great. She has been taking care of my husband since September 2017 when he got a fungal eye infection. After taking over 4 months to get rid of it was decided that a cornea transplant was needed. Dr Rhea Siatkowski preformed that surgery the end of March 2018. Due to the. amount of steroids eye drops my husband had to use to get rid of the infection, it caused a severe cataract in the affected eye. Eventually Dr Rhea Siatkowski will do cataract surgery on that eye. We have been more than pleased with the care that my husband has received. I would recommend the Dean McGee Eye Institute to anyone.
