The Ophthalmology practice of Matthew E. Schmidt, M.D. and Associates, S.C., provides medical and surgical treatment of eye diseases as well as general eye care to patients of all ages. The practice was founded by esteemed physician, Paul J. Schmidt, M.D., who first practiced as an eye doctor in Chicago at 79th and Western Avenue, in the 1960's. Even today we continue to provide eye exams and glasses for some of our original patients. We have been serving the people of the Chicago land area, at our current location in Palos Heights, for over forty years.

“A doctor, like anyone else who has to deal with human beings,
each of them unique, cannot be a scientist; he is either, like the surgeon, a
craftsman, or, like the physician and the psychologist, an artist. This means
that in order to be a good doctor a man must also have a good character, that is
to say, whatever weaknesses and foibles he may have, he must love his fellow
human beings in the concrete and desire their good before his
own."
