Our Story…
Dr. Mark Gordon, optometrist and managing partner of Barenburg Eye Associates, never dreamed that both his daughter and son would follow in his footsteps.
Dr. Gordon established his first practice in Taneytown, in Carroll County, in 1972. By the end of 1978, he added four locations in the greater Baltimore area. Purchasing the established, four-location Barenburg family practices in 1980, Dr. Gordon vowed to continue the same level of care and service that Baltimoreans had grown to know and trust for over 60 years.
In 1996, Dr. Gordon’s daughter, Shoshana Cohen, joined the practice, specializing in contact lenses, pediatrics, and glaucoma treatment and co-management. In 1999, Dr. Gordon’s son, Joshua joined the family practice specializing in the treatment of dry eye and ocular surface disease, as well as hard to fit contact lenses.
All three doctors graduated from the Pennsylvania College of Optometry in Philadelphia with citations in clinical excellence, and are members of the American and Maryland Optometric Associations with certification by the Maryland Board of Optometry and the National Board of Examiners in Optometry.
With locations in Downtown Baltimore, Dundalk, Ellicott City, Forest Park, and Pikesville, the practice has four additional optometrists and three ophthalmologists. Barenburg Eye Associates offers comprehensive eye care encompassing routine eye examinations, treatment and management of dry eye disease, as well as glaucoma, cataracts, and LASIK surgery.
Family eye care was Barenburg’s foundation, and although it has transformed into a multi-specialty practice, it will always be a family dedicated to serving other Maryland families.
WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
Family eye care was Barenburg’s foundation, and although it has transformed into a multi-specialty practice, it will always be a family dedicated to serving other Maryland families.
My husband, granddaughter and I have been patients of Dr. Joshua Gordon’s for at least 15 years. I would highly recommend Barenburg Eye Associates for anyone interested in state of the art eye care with a personal touch.
The team at Barenburg Eye is among the very best in the area. They take the time to assess your individual needs such as preference on contacts or glasses and provide a range of options that I have never seen with a competitor. There is simply no other professional that could ever compare!
My family and I have been going to Barenburg Eye Associates for over a decade. The staff is very attentive and takes the time to provide us with the best care, and to educate us about the examinations as well. I could not imagine going anywhere else!
