Affiliated Eye Surgeons was established in Phoenix, Arizona in 1944 by Virgil Toland, M.D. At that time, the population was less than 70,000. Dr. Paul McFarland joined Dr. Toland in 1948. Dr. E. Frederick Bloemker, Raymond J. Zimmerman, George M. Yanik, and James J. Koster have all joined the practice since 1971. As one of the oldest established Ophthalmology practices in Phoenix, Affiliated Eye Surgeons offers its patients a sense of security that only experience and longevity can provide. The doctors of Affiliated Eye Surgeons are extremely proud of the fact that since its inception in 1944, there has never been a malpractice judgment against us. This is a great indicator of the quality of surgical and medical care given to our patients.
