Dr. Joseph Kesselman, O.D.
Dr. Kesselman was born and raised in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. After high school, he attended the University of Central Florida where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Molecular Biology and Microbiology in 2010.
Dr. Kesselman continued his higher education and graduated in 2014 as a doctor of optometry (O.D.) after undergoing a rigorous four-year optometric education program at the University of the Incarnate Word’s Rosenberg School of Optometry in San Antonio, Texas. In-house clinic at school provided experience with vision therapy, pediatrics, and contact lenses, as well as exposure to ocular disease, especially complications with diabetes.
As a part of his education, Dr. Kesselman worked as an extern at a Veteran’s Administration outpatient clinic and in a private Opthalmology practice where he expanded his knowledge and experience with the diagnosis and management of ocular disease.
In order to practice, Dr. Kesselman underwent all three parts of the national board examinations and currently holds a license to practice in the state of Florida.
In 2016, Dr. Kesselman decided to undergo the ambitious project of opening a brand new luxury optometry practice in Sunny Isles Beach, Florida and maintained that store until soon after the COVID pandemic. He now runs his practice out of larger optical stores like Walmart Vision Center, Lenscrafters, and JCP Optical, where he can focus on patient care.
