Very businesslike approach. Listens to patient comments. Clear follow up communication. Successfully treated my condition.
Mr Smith was fantastic, with my initial concern of having a cataract, he made me feel so at ease, the whole procedure has been a great success only down to Mr Smiths professionalism through out.
I found my experience on the day to be very positive. I’ve taken on board Mr Smith’s guidance and find my eyes are much more comfortable now. Mr Smith's comments and report have given me a much better understanding and will inform the decisions I make regarding any further treatment. Special mention also for Alison (Clinic Administrator)--very efficient and caring. Very much helped me put my mind at rest prior to my consultation.
Mr Smith has been excellent throughout the process, he clearly explained what outcome I should expect (the final result is even better !!), I found him to be extremely knowledgeable and thorough...I honestly couldn't fault anything about the Matrix Clinic.
Absolutely excellent. I felt very reassured by Mr Smith throughout the two cataract operations over the last three months.
I mentioned in the previous note how he responded in a clear way to any questions. His treatment was done with care and attention. The checks on the eye before and after seemed to be done with a lot of detail and the end result appears very good.
Mr. Guy Smith was kind, reassuring and totally professional. The best, and I highly recommend him.
Mr Smith is the consummate professional. He checked my eyes very carefully, took his time and told me that my eyesight was now 100% good. He has performed two cataract operations on me. He is very pleasant and friendly.
Mr Smith is an excellent all round ophthalmologist whom I would be delighted to recommend to patients and colleagues alike.
