Department of Ophthalmology
Scott Brodie, M.D., Ph.D.
Dr. Scott Brodie is Associate Professor of Ophthalmology specializing in Medical Retina and Clinical Electrophysiology, and since 1985 has been the Director of the Department's Electroretinography Laboratory. With backgrounds in mathematics, biophysics, and genetics, he brings a broad perspective to the study of inherited, metabolic, and degenerative diseases of the retina in his clinical practice and research. He has maintained a comprehensive state-of-the-art clinical and research electrophysiologic laboratory, performing whole-field, focal, and pattern electroretinography, evoked potentials, contrast sensitivity, color vision, and dark adaptometry studies. Dr. Brodie received his B.A. summa cum laude and an M.A. in Mathematics from Wesleyan University. He received his Ph.D. in biophysics from The Rockefeller University and his M.D. from Cornell University Medical College. After his residency at The New York Hospital, he completed his fellowship in medical retina at New York University Medical Center and was awarded the John Kluge Fellowship from the National Retinitis Pigmentosa Foundation. Dr. Brodie is a Diplomate of the American Board of Ophthalmology. Dr. Brodie has published more than 75 medical and scientific papers and abstracts. His publications include the study of the retina from the molecular level, genetics, neurologic, and psychophysical models, electrophysiologic models for early diagnosis of glaucoma, early identification of retinopathy in AIDS, and the study of Epidermolysis Bullosa. Dr. Brodie sees patients with inherited, metabolic, and degenerative disorders of the retina, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and epidermolysis bullosa, as well as general patients. He personally performs and interprets all electrophysiological studies. Scott Brodie, M.D. Tel: (212) 241-6240 To set up an appointment to see Dr. Brodie, please call (212) 241-6240.
