LITTLETON, CO / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Colorado Eye Consultants announces that owner Dr. Robert Fish has been selected as a 5280 Magazine Top Doctor for 2025, earning recognition among the top 7% of practicing physicians across the United States. This esteemed honor, resulting from peer nominations and rigorous evaluation by Castle Connolly, acknowledges Dr. Fish's expertise in complex cataract surgery and advanced corneal transplantation techniques.
"Thank you! It's wonderful to be recognized as a 5280 Magazine Top Doctor. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire team," said Dr. Fish, emphasizing the collaborative excellence that defines Colorado Eye Consultants.
Dr. Fish brings exceptional skill to the most challenging cases in ophthalmology, specializing in routine and complex cataract surgery, particularly for patients with previous corneal transplantation and complications from refractive surgery procedures. His mastery of cutting-edge corneal transplantation techniques, including Descemet's Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK), Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK), Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty (DALK), and Penetrating Keratoplasty (PKP), positions Colorado Eye Consultants at the forefront of surgical innovation.
A native of Indianapolis, Indiana, Dr. Fish's journey to medical excellence began at Indiana University, where he completed both undergraduate and medical school training. After initial research in molecular biology, he discovered his calling in medicine and earned his medical degree from Indiana University School of Medicine in 2005, graduating with honors.
Dr. Fish completed his medical internship at St. Luke's Medical Center in Milwaukee before advancing to his ophthalmology residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin, where he distinguished himself by being elected Chief Resident. During this period, his commitment to advancing the field was evident through active research participation, presentations at national meetings, and publication of several scientific papers. His specialized training culminated with a fellowship in Cornea, Refractive and External Disease at the Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Institute in Aurora, Colorado, establishing the foundation for his current expertise in the region's most complex cases.
Dr. Fish's professional recognition extends well beyond clinical practice. He has been honored to participate in the American Board of Ophthalmology certification process, serving both as an oral board examiner and contributing to exam curriculum development. His leadership within the ophthalmology community includes extensive service on the board of Colorado Society of Eye Physicians and Surgeons, culminating in his role as President, and his election to the prestigious American Eye Study Club.
As a nationally recognized corneal specialist, Dr. Fish frequently serves as a thought leader in various aspects of the ophthalmology physician community, contributing to the advancement of surgical techniques and patient care standards. In addition to his corneal expertise, Dr. Fish performs minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) for patients with moderate to severe glaucoma.
