He will see patients at our Statesville office and at our Mooresville location upon the completion of our new standalone office building in March.

Graduating from Wayne State University with a degree in biology, Dr. Rastogi received his medical degree from Wayne State University School of Medicine. After completing his internship at Oakwood Hospital in Dearborn, MI, and his residency at Kresge Eye Institute at Wayne State University, he completed his fellowship in glaucoma at University Eye Specialists in Chicago, Il. Prior to joining CEENTA, Dr. Rastogi spent seventeen years in Brooklyn, NY and applied his glaucoma expertise as the Director of Glaucoma at SUNY Downstate and in private practice.

Outside of the office, Dr. Rastogi enjoys spending his free time hanging out with his family and friends. He likes to cook, be outdoors, workout, and spoil his dog.

“I am blessed with a skill that can help change so many lives. It’s exciting to join a practice that has been around for a century,” Dr. Rastogi said. “After being in New York for almost 20 years, I look forward to getting to know the Tar Heel State!”
