A kind, high experienced gentleman. He explained every step of the procedure and the after care was brilliant. At no point was I left unclear, when I had a worry it was explained. I would highly recommend anyone to consult him on any eye surgery.

I have recently had lens replacement on both eyes, this operation was carried out by Mr Samer Hamada, who I would and will recommend to anybody who is thinking of having LR. Mr Hamada's team (Harley Street) are very thorough and professional and make you feel at ease. I also felt in safe hands during the operation which lasts about 15 minutes. The following day I was able to see and read articles that in the past would have required glasses, and now 18 days later the results are excellent. I am glad I chose Mr Hamada.

Mr Hamada was such a comfort whilst going through the procedure I felt completely at ease.
Dr Hamada- He is a man who was born for this profession. As soon as we walked into the room you felt you had met a man who was gentle and kind. His demeana was of a man who new his trade. He speaks to you in a way you will understand. He explains exactly what is wrong and the way he will help fix it for you. We have a daughter with a very rare eye condition in children. She was 9 months when we met Dr Hamada - we were very frightened but this Dr took all the time and care to put us at ease. There was hope. With his care our daughter is managing a normal little life. An email or phone call and he is at the other end to make her comfortable. This Dr is in a league of his own and in this day and age they seem very few and far between. We can not thank him enough. The Brock family
