I was anxious beforehand and because of this I'd put off having my cataracts done for a long time. There was no need to be so anxious. Mr Deshmukh put me at ease and he and his team were excellent. I will be having my other eye done soon with Mr Deshmukh and he has made me feel so confident that I won't be anxious this time.

Mr Deshmukh did a great job with the cataract surgery on my right eye. I had issues with the eye that made the surgery more challenging than normal. The outcome appears to be excellent with an improvement in vision beyond expectations.
Thank you for your time writing a review. We are wishing you all the best! Mr Deshmukh's Practice

I recently underwent Cataract surgery performed by Mr Deshmukh. I admit - before surgery i was anxious, however, i had no reason to be, the whole experience was seamless. Mr Deshmukh and his team were so calm and reassuring that my concerns were greatly relieved. I am both astonished and delighted with my new clarity of vision, as a result i am once again confident to drive at night. Bless you Mr Deshmukh for performing this miracle.

An excellent experience. My bilateral cataract surgery was carried out by Mr Deshmukh 5 weeks ago. Not only is my vision extraordinarily good now but the entire experience could not have been improved upon. Mr Deshmukh has excellent clinical, as well as surgical, skills. At each interaction, he listened to my questions and concerns, and responded with appropriately detailed explanations and with kindness. I was also impressed by the efficiency and courtesy of the members of his team. I am already recommending him to friends. Date of experience: 11 January 2023

Required cataract surgery on my left eye due to an earlier Vitro- rectomy procedure I had earlier this year. I cannot fault the service and professionalism of Dr Deshmukh. He understood my condition and took into account my previous eye history of lasix.surgery I had done early in the 90's. The op itself was quick pain free and I'm very pleased with the outcome / vision correction with edof lense fitted to correct my prescription. I would not hesitate to use his services again.

Very prompt and very polite reception. He clearly explained what to expect on the operation front and yet the whole experience was relaxed and i felt treated as a person not as a statistic. The operation was a great success. Very impressed

I went to see Mr Rajesh Deshmukh on the 27th October 2022. For a challenging cataract operation. I could not see anything out of my right eye. I was very nervous but on meeting Mr Deshmukh he made me feel very relaxed calm and at ease. He kept me well informed of all aspects of the operation, and in my opinion he is a very fine professional and skilful surgeon. I am having another procedure on my left eye soon. I would totally recommend Mr Deshmukh to anyone that is going to undergo any eye surgery. You could not be in safer hands. He has given me my life back and I am so thankful for his skills and professionalism. I cannot thank him enough. Many thanks ###### ##### Folkestone Kent
