"Mr Kashani is an excellent cataract surgeon who cares deeply for his patients. He is also a highly knowledgeable and skilled expert in disorders of the retina. As the former clinical lead of his trust he transformed the macular service to ensure an exceptional level of care was delivered. I would gladly recommend him to my friends and family."
