Patients often feel at ease and confident under her care, praising the excellent results. Some patients mention long waiting times before procedures, and her expertise is frequently highlighted across all eye care, particularly concerning cataract procedures.
I am so pleased with my treatment. It has been excellent. Mrs Prakash is a very caring person as well as an excellent surgeon. She explained things clearly and also listened so she is aware of circumstances which could affect the timing for treatment. Thank you.
From initial consultation to post op follow up everything was reassuringly professional. Miss Prakash's demeanor during the operation was very calming making any subsequent cataract operation less stressful to go through. The results for me were outstandingly good I am totally amazed at the difference it has made.
Mrs Prakash provides a first class service and explains clearly the diagnosis, treatment and after care.
I would have answered the phone if I had known it was Mrs Prakash but had no caller id so I didn’t pick it up My last visit in January was fine just a follow up after laser treatment to the right eye Since then my eyes have been fine and I think they have improved more, it may be physical don’t know
All the procedures were well explained and reassurance given. Very professional!
Mrs Prakash is a very caring person. She explained everything well and took her time to make sure we understood. Very professional .
I was initially disappointed that my surgery was cancelled on the planned day of the surgery. However, overall,I could not be more pleased with my hospital experience and the final surgery result. I am extremely grateful to Mrs Priya Prakash and her team.
