Mr Rosen operated on my eyes in July and the results have been absolutely wonderful. His advice and ability to allay the worries I had and deal with the fact I was quite anxious were most helpful to me. Post-operatively I had a concern and he saw me the same day which being anxious was very much appreciated. I could not recommend him more highly.

Felt very comfortable from start to finish, everyone was very friendly and supportive but more importantly very professional. Delighted I took this step and very pleased with the outcome - no glasses for distance reading or any future cataract problems.
