Dr. Heinze earned his medical degree from the University of Michigan Medical School, where he graduated with Distinction in Medical Education. His commendable work included developing and implementing programs to support students from communities traditionally underrepresented in medicine to pursue medical careers. He then went on to complete his ophthalmology residency at the University of Illinois Chicago – Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary (IEEI).

As a fellow, Dr. Heinze received the departmental Resident Education Award once again, along with the Fellow of the Year Award, in recognition of his continued dedication to resident and medical student education.
