He pursued much of his education in Virginia, completing his undergraduate studies at the University of Virginia, where he earned a degree in Neuroscience with distinction.

Dr. Siegel completed his Ophthalmology training at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas – one of the premier Ophthalmology Departments in the United States.
