Excellent and made every effort to explain the procedure as it progressed. I think most people are somewhat nervous about their eyes and I found that very reassuring.

Explanation

Mr Sherafat explained what was to come clearly so that I had no fear on the operation day. During the operation he kept telling me what he was doing. I was completely relaxed. Since the operation I have driven and gone to the theatre without glasses. I enjoyed looking at the stars and the moon so clearly. An outstanding result. Thank you. The written background material and in particular the next day phone call check from Dorothy was reassuring and informative.

Explanation

Mr Sherafat was highly recommended to me by my local optometrist, as I required cataract surgery for my right eye in January 2022. I was quite apprehensive about the procedure but before and during surgery, Mr Sherafat was a calming and reassuring presence and the procedure itself was flawless and painless. When I required surgery for a cataract in my right eye in November 2023, I did not hesitate to ask Mr Sherafat to treat me - with the same results although this time, I was not at all apprehensive.
