Dr. Schertzer is a glaucoma sub-specialized ophthalmologist with over 20 years of clinical experience. He returned to Vancouver in April 2018 providing care as a consultant on a permanent locum basis. From 2013-2018 he was on faculty at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth College and on active staff at the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center.
