About Kevin Heinze, M.D.
Dr. Heinze earned his medical degree from the University of Michigan Medical School, where he graduated with Distinction in Medical Education. His commendable work included developing and implementing programs to support students from communities traditionally underrepresented in medicine to pursue medical careers. He then went on to complete his ophthalmology residency at the University of Illinois Chicago – Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary (IEEI). During his residency he was selected to serve as chief resident and nominated by his peers to receive the departmental Resident Education Award. He further specialized with a two-year fellowship in oculoplastic surgery at IEEI, accredited by the prestigious American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. As a fellow, Dr. Heinze received the departmental Resident Education Award once again, along with the Fellow of the Year Award, in recognition of his continued dedication to resident and medical student education.
Dr. Heinze is author and co-author of a number of journal articles and book chapters. His areas of clinical and research interest include utilization of artificial intelligence to streamline clinical processes, resident surgical education, and the development and implementation of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts aimed at supporting learners of all levels to pursue careers in medicine and ophthalmology.
