Throughout my treatment Deepak has been very respectful, answered all my questions, and even asked about my family on several occasions. When I have come to him with a problem he's sorted it then and there which I really appreciate, and helped reassure me with my nerves around surgery.

I first met Mr Deepak Vayalambrone on the 1st October on a routine Diabetes check. Due to an ongoing issue with a bleed behind my eye and floating vitreous gel he decided the removal of my cataract would help. I had this removed by Deepak two weeks later. He was extremely caring and put me at ease throughout the procedure and on my follow up appointment on the 26th November he confirmed the eye surgery all went to plan and explained in full detail to my husband and myself with the on screen photographs of my eye and blood vessels and confirmed no swelling was present after the surgery. It was nice that Deepak spent time with us explaining it all. I consider Deepak to be a credit to his profession as well as to Ipswich Hospital eye department.

An excellent and patient explainer of the operation and all likely results of the procedure. The results of the two procedures were better than my wildest expectations.

I have received Surgery and regular consultations over a few years now and have grown to highly value and respect Mr Deepak Vayalambrone opinion and advice. He has always projected a caring and professional approach and addressed my medical issues in a manner that leaves me very confident after leaving each meeting/consultation with him. thankyou

Been seeing Mr Vayalambrone for 10 months and had 4 operations. His expertise and his ability to communicate exactly what was happening and what i could expect gave me utmost confidence and reassurance in him. He is kind, friendly, respectful, and always professional and I learned (over time) that he has an excellent professional reputation and is known as the “top man” in his field. Highly skilled - and nice with it, it can’t get better than that!
