Truely comfortable , informative with Mums issues, very grateful in everything!
This was my first appointment with Dr Ramakrishnan. She welcomed me and made me feel very comfortable explaining the results of the in-house eye tests competently. I left feeling I had nothing to worry about!
Dr was very professional and very easy to explain all about cataract surgery as well as preforming some tests on my eyes.
Wait times are what make it unbearable especially if you’re travelling long distances and then have to sit in the traffic on the way back.
Very professional and very happy to answer questions and listen.
I have had a long running issue with chronic inflammation in my right eye. Dr Ramakrishnan was as determined the last time I saw her as the first time to manage the issue for my best outcome.
An excellent doctor and fully explains everthing about my eyes.
