Had cataract surgery, from the receptionist on entering the clinic to when I was discharged all members of the team showed professionalism, where friendly respectful approachable. My brother who accompanied me commented on how the receptionist treated everyone with a smile and offer of tea or coffee. I found all clinical team members approachable did all they could to make me feel comfortable and I was in safe hands friendly smiling. Everything was explained clearly and out come discussed. I could not have had a better experience.

All the staff were very nice and the atmosphere was very calming. The surgeon explained everything in advance and the procedure was much quicker than I expected. After about 15 minutes or so I was sitting back in waiting room again. My cousin has recently been referred to Wrexham for bilateral cataract surgery and I told her that I would recommend referral on to Newmedica if she is given the choice. I was able to reassure her about the procedure and feel very comfortable about having surgery on my left eye in a few weeks time.
