Explanation

Excellent care and very thorough in all aspects. Extremely personable and happy to answer any questions or concerns. She has a very good 'bedside manner' and the staff at the Nuffield spontaneously commented on how much they like working with her because of her sunny personality. I am extremely pleased with the end result and wouldn't hesitate in recommending her.

I did get a bit scared that I might have been a 1 in a 100 failure when my sight took 36 hours to clear rather than a few hours

Explanation

I was extremely impressed with Miss Krishnan. She spent time going through the details of my problem with care, she acted straight away, she made a number of really useful suggestions for future management and she provided a sample of an alternative eye drop product that has proved to be absolutely the correct call. I would have no hesitation in seeing her again or in recommending her to others.
