Dr. Dudee got to present to the kids at Cub Scouts the other day about being an ophthalmologist! Everyone had a great time, Dr. Dudee included, and just maybe he convinced one of the kids to change their Halloween costumes to being an eye doctor 😉

Our Doctor

Jitander Dudee is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, Kentucky Medical Association and the Lexington Medical Society. He has received numerous awards, patents and professional distinctions.

Jitander Dudee was born in Ghasola, a village in northern India about 80 miles from the capital city of Delhi. His father was a schoolteacher and his parents moved to the UK when he was a toddler, where his younger brother was born.

Jitander grew up and went to school in London, attending Lionel Rd Primary School where he was mentored by many outstanding teachers including the late Brian Thompson, MBE . Mr. Thompson fostered a love of reading and writing in Jitander and encouraged him to collaborate on a book when he was just 8 years old. This resulted in “The Story of Prince Rama” a retelling of an ancient epic Jitander heard from his parents, as well as other poems.

He then attended Chiswick School in west London (pronounced “chiz-ick”) next to the grounds of Chiswick House . As well as by his teachers, Jitander was inspired by his parents- hard working immigrants who helped build a better life for their children. Living close to London’s river Thames, Jitander enjoyed Sea Scouts and rowing.

An especially memorable experience for Jitander was a trip with his family from England to France. They went to visit a memorial for Indian soldiers who died in the battle of Neuve-Chapelleduring the World War 1. The family laid flowers at the memorial where Jitander’s great-grandfather’s namewas inscribed – one of over four thousand who died in that battle and whose bodies were never recovered.

Jitander Dudee loved science and biology from an early age and decided to pursue a career in medicine. After taking competitive exams he was accepted for medical school at Cambridge University at the age of 17. During three years of pre-clinical studies at Magdalene College, Cambridge, Jitander visited India frequently for medical research projects. After graduating with honors, Jitander carried out three years of clinical rotations at St Thomas’s Hospital Medical school, right across the river from the famous Big Ben clocktower.

He returned to Cambridge for his final medical exams and went back to St Thomas’s Hospital (home of Florence Nightingale’s nursing school for his internship). Dr Dudee then continued his internship at the Royal Naval Hospital, Haslar in Portsmouth, and then obtained the prestigious Fellowship of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists by passing its examinations.

During his medical school rotations Jitander Dudee visited the US several times and was impressed by the country and its people. So, after additional training in ophthalmology at Whipps Cross University Hospital in London, Dr. Dudee crossed the Atlantic again, for specialist training at the Washington National Eye Center in Washington, D.C., one of the oldest ophthalmology training programs in the country.

After finishing his residency training in DC, Dr. Dudee decided to make the Bluegrass his home. In 1994 he bought the practice of retiring ophthalmologist Dr. Georges Birenbaum.

Dr. Dudee lives in Lexington with his wife and their two sons. They enjoy reading, hiking and volunteering in community events.
