Mamdouh Labib Nakla

I’m proud to be a part of Kaiser Permanente at South Bay, and I look forward to providing you with personalized, quality eye care.

I grew up in Hacienda Heights. I knew when I was in high school that I wanted to study medicine. I became fascinated with the study of the human eye while in medical school and decided to pursue a career in ophthalmology. After my ophthalmology residency in Philadelphia, I completed my glaucoma fellowship at the Jules Stein Eye Institute at UCLA. I am married and have three children.

I specialize in glaucoma and cataract surgery. It’s a great joy for me to witness my patients’ eyesight and quality of life improve after surgery. Glaucoma is a treatable condition, and it’s possible to prevent blindness from glaucoma through diligent care and follow-up. I pride myself on giving you personalized care that fits well with the care you receive from your other physicians to help keep your whole body healthy.

I stay well by keeping fit with regular exercise, and I enjoy spending quality time with my wife and kids.
