Clinical Experience:

Dr. Kenshock completed four distinct clinical internships prior to moving to North Carolina.  The first was at the Martinelli Eye Clinic in Pittsburgh, PA where he obtained valuable clinical experience with family eye care including eye examinations for glasses and contact lenses.  He also participated in the management of glaucoma patients, cataract post-op care, and refractive surgery evaluations.  His second internship was also in Pittsburgh at Associates in Ophthalmology.  Here he observed LASIK eye surgery, glaucoma, cataract, and retinal specialists.  On an average day, he would encounter 50 patients with eye problems related to diabetes, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.  This was a unique and rewarding clinical rotation.  The third rotation was at the Lebanon VA Hospital in Lebanon, Pennsylvania.  This rotation enabled Dr. Kenshock to participate in the eye care of our nation’s veterans.  This rotation not only served to provide eye care experience, but reminded him of the sacrifice that the men and women in the armed forces make in their lives in order to provide us with our continued freedom.  The internships commenced with one additional rotation in Philadelphia at JFK Memorial Hospital and in the Pediatric Department at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry.  The Pediatric rotation provided eye exam experience for children of all ages.
