I had an appointment with Mr Harry Petrushkin. He put me at ease, was very professional, approachable and friendly. He explained my scans, my condition and treatment plan very well. I'm so happy I booked the appointment with him and would like to remain under his and Moorfields' care.
Mr. Petrushkin was not only exceptionally understanding; his knowledge of such a wide variety of treatment approaches was also impressive. I respect him for his ability to objectively talk me through all my options - many doctors struggle with this, which is a problem with my complex medical history.
There for a steroid injection into my eye. The consultant fully explained the procedure throughout - as did his assisting nurse
Mr Petrushkin was very helpful and tested my request for the operation in a open and honest way to make sure that I had taken into account advanatges/disadvantages and was at the right stage to go forward with the operation. I did not feel pressured to undertake the treatment, and he respected the choice I had made without trying to sell alternative lens treatments that I had already discussed with my optician.
After finding out last year that I had pulmonary sarcoidosis, I went to see Dr. Petrushkin for an eye check, since sarcoidosis can affect the eyes too. He was incredibly calm and reassuring, took his time to explain everything, and answered all of my questions.
As I said previously I was very impressed and Mr Petrushkin made me feel that I was in good hands
Mr Petrushkin is first class . A very professional consultant with an excellent patient manner and courtesy .
Harry was very professional, friendly, and explained things clearly.
First rate expert pinpointed my eye problem which the main NHS Moorfields Eye Hospital was not able to do.
Harry is a leading expert in the field of cataract surgery, uveitis and paediatric uveitis. He is great with patients, highly knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with.
