The Venzara name has been a well known and respected one in the Brevard County medical community for parts of four decades, as his father Dr. Frank X. Venzara II, a board certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon since the mid 80s in the area, has a longstanding reputation for being talented, compassionate and caring.

STATE OF THE ART CLINIC FEATURING ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

After receiving extensive education and training, the younger Dr. Venzara has moved back to the Space Coast to open his medical practice.

He is Board Certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and a member of the American Society of Retina Specialists, American Academy of Ophthalmology, Florida Society of Ophthalmology, and the Christian Ophthalmology Society.
