Also at Baylor, Dr. Chang completed his internal medicine internship, followed by ophthalmology residency at the Cullen Eye Institute, where he had the privilege of serving as Chief Resident. To offer more to his patients, Dr. Chang completed a fellowship in Cornea and External Diseases, and Refractive Surgery at the Duke University Eye Center.
