CSC Welcomes Back Dr. Nute

October 15, 2025

Earlier this summer, CSC was delighted to welcome back Dr. Chantanute, affectionately known as “Dr. Nute.” After leaving CSC in early 2022 to complete a specialty fellowship in retinal surgery, Dr. Nute has returned to bring his advanced skills to the patients of Cambodia. CSC was proud to support him throughout his training, with the shared goal of strengthening eye care services upon his return. Today, Dr. Nute provides expert treatment for cataracts, glaucoma, pterygium, strabismus, and retinal conditions, continuing CSC’s mission to restore sight and improve lives. When asked what he likes best about CSC, he shared, "I became a doctor to help people who have no other options. Seeing their gratitude reminds me why I returned to CSC.”

Our staff are our most valuable resource in providing high-quality surgical care, and everyone has a unique role to play. We are grateful that Dr. Nute has returned to support our Mission.
