Meet Maggie Cardonell, M.D.

Dr. Cardonell is a dedicated ophthalmologist committed to enhancing the quality of life for her patients through exceptional eye care. She brings a compassionate approach and unique global perspective to our practice, which are both enriched by her extensive travels. Specializing in cataract surgery, she welcomes patients to our Columbia (Nifong) location.

Originally from Kansas City, her professional journey includes medical and surgical work in Asia, Africa, Central and South America, and across the Midwest. This experience has not only shaped her empathetic approach to eye care but also fueled her ongoing passion for travel. When she’s not improving vision, she enjoys exploring, spending time at the lake, and creating memories with her husband, three children, and their dog Cookie.
