Overall the experience was great, I was cared for with excellent professionalism, all procedures and reasons for them explained very clearly. Good opportunity to ask any questions if I needed to.
From my initial appointment to my final appointment today I have nothing but praise for Mr Casswell. Preop he explained everything clearly and the results of the surgery are unbelievable! I would encourage anyone with Cataract problems to book an appointment with Mr Casswell as soon as possible. You won't be disappointed with the outcome.
Mr Casswell has been absolutely amazing throughout what could have been such a frightening experience. I really thought I was going to lose the sight in my eye. He was very reassuring and his professionalism was exceptional. A really wonderful human being.
Always a pleasant experience with absolutely top class care / tests / treatments. Mr Casswell reviewed me today after Pressure Test, dilating drops and scans by the wonderful clinicians. Given the prolonged trouble I have experienced with my left eye, Mr Casswell performed Laser Treatment on my good eye as he was a little concerned with the retina. Mr Casswell has a great caring professional friendly nature, making patients feel totally at ease, together with his skill and outstanding qualifications in his field.
I was really pleased and happy with how I was treated and all the information given. Thank you Mr Ed Casswell.
I was initially apprehensive about my laser eye surgery. I was very reassured with the professionalism of Mr Caswell who explained in clear detail what to expect regarding the surgery and the after-care. I’m very pleased with the outcome which has made a significant difference to my life. many thanks, Mr. Caswell.
My cataract surgery exceeded my expectations as I am able to see clearly long distance and close up without any need for glasses. I did not feel any pain during the surgery and my recovery has been pain free with just a little discomfort in my right eye which drops have eased.
