"Making service and outcomes of treatment for patients optimal"

After graduating from the University of Queensland Medical School, Dr Stephen Godfrey had seven years of invaluable and enjoyable general practice as a country Medical Superintendent working predominantly in the central west of Queensland.

After returning to Brisbane to complete his ophthalmologist specialist training under the Queensland Training Scheme, Dr Godfrey was very fortunate to gain the opportunity of working for 18 months at Taunton Hospital in Somerset, England. There, he completed his general ophthalmological training in all major sub-speciality areas.

Dr Godfrey joined The Eye Centre in 1999 and in May 2008 saw The Eye Centre change their name to Vision Eye Institute. He practices at Southport, Robina and Coolangatta. Dr Godfrey is involved in the Queensland training programme for registrars at The Gold Coast Hospital. Dr Godfrey is also involved with the Wuchopperen Aboriginal Eye Service in remote North Queensland. He has lectured both in Australia and overseas. Dr Godfrey specialises in cataract, refractive and ocular plastics.
