Mr Modi is very knowledgeable, caring, efficient & professional at all times. He explains everything very clearly and is very patient orientated which is very much appreciated as my mum suffers from dementia so needs clear & concise information.
Mr Modi was my consultant and surgeon for glaucoma stent surgery and for cataract surgery on both eyes. He is very experienced in both of these areas and it shows. He was absolutely brilliant. I cannot thank him enough. Throughout the process, he explained procedures clearly, making sure that I understood what the next steps would be. He was patient and reassuring at all times from the pre-operative consultation right to the end of the recovery process. His attention to detail and his kindness were exemplary.
I felt completely comfortable with what would happen during my procedure and had every confidence in Mr Modi for a successful outcome.
The procedure was a fiddly one and the outcome could not be known until after a subsequent biopsy, so I was apprehensive. However I was properly supported by Dr Modi and his team at every stage, making sure I was fully informed and as prepared as possible. The procedure itself was as quiet, gentle and professional an experience as one could ever hope for.
Advice was clear and succinct Answered all my questions
As always I received an excellent professional care that you can expect from a knowledgeable specialist. As I am rather old and a bit hard of hearing, appreciated to be talk to a bit louder
Over the last 3 or 4 years I have seen Mr. Modi on many occasions and have always found him very professional, friendly and always willing to explain all test results and options in a way I can easily understand.
My recent appointment was first class & I much appreciate the care & dedication of Neil Modi & his team on my previous visits
Mr Modi is an excellent Ophthalmologist and well-liked by his patients and colleagues.
