Mr Price is very easy to talk too and reassuring and done excellent surgery on my upper eyelids
I hardly has to wait to be seen. The doctor was friendly and helpful
Kept fully informed of procedure & what was happening before, during & after. Mr Price was professional, affable, approachable, very easy to talk to & allayed my fears.
Just been to my one week post-op appointment to have stitches removed from my eyelids. Very smooth and quick procedure, very carefully done and no pain. Good advice given to aid recovery and get back to normal. Bruising is fading quickly and my eyes feel a lot more comfortable. I’m very happy with the results. Thank you.
I was seen on time, explained clearly what the issue is and what treatment options are available. Felt safe, listened to and well cared for throughout the appointment. Thank you!!!!
I took my 92 year Mother to see Mr Price in outpatients. He was charming, even pushed Mum in her wheelchair from the waiting room to the consulting room. He was brilliant with Mum, very clearly explaining everything and allowing us to ask questions. We didn’t feel rushed and Mum felt confident to go ahead with the procedures he offered. Overall a brilliant experience, Mum thought he was wonderful.
Very good. Mr Price professional friendly knowledgeable and informative.
Mr Price has performed surgery on me twice before and I have continued to be thrilled with the results and recommend him to close friends and family. He instills confidence and clarity into not only the consultation but the medical and follow up processes. I trust and value Mr Price’s professionalism integrity and amazing ability as a skilled talented surgeon.
The review of my Bell’s palsy was very informative. Visits continue to improve my understanding of my progress and made me feel supported, which is especially important given how challenging the condition can be to navigate.

Facial palsy is a much more difficult thing to navigate than people realise. The changes in facial appearance, the loss of ability to express yourself as you previously did, the communication difficulties… I take my hat off to everybody living with and working through facial palsy.
Richard is an extremely experienced and skill full surgeon. He has always been a great support to me.
