About Ravali Gummi, M.D.

Dr. Gummi attended medical school at the University of Missouri, Kansas City School of Medicine, graduating summa cum laude. Subsequently, she completed her ophthalmology residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. As a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Medical Association, and Women in Ophthalmology, Dr. Gummi finds great interest in the human eye. “The complexity of the human eye and visual pathways are two factors that nudged me towards a career in ophthalmology. After embarking on my ophthalmic journey, I was able to see the impact that preserving and restoring vision can have on lives. I have been in awe ever since!” Dr. Gummi enjoys getting in touch with her roots through classical dance. Along with dancing, Dr. Gummi also loves painting, music, and spending time with her friends and family.

What our patients are saying...

My visit with Dr. Gummi and her assistants were awesome. She did a very thorough exam, and gave me a ball by ball details of what she was doing. I have been coming to this clinic for over ten years, but this visit with Dr. Gummi, was by far the best. She was gentle, friendly and show empathy. I felt secure and comfortable, I'll definitely ask for her on my next routine eye exam.

It was an exciting experience with Dr. Gummi, she was prompt, and explained the situation with my eyes clearly and and booked me in further examination after a month. I look forward to my next appointment believing to get a clean bill of health from the back of my eyes.

I’ve been a client of this clinic for years and always leave satisfied with the service I received. This years visit was top notch. Easy to sign in, short wait time, courteous front office service and Dr. Gummi was especially great. She explained what she was doing throughout the exam, taking time to make sure I was comfortable and patiently answering any questions I had. Highly recommend becoming a patient of theirs!
