Explanation

Mr Walker took a great deal of care with my in my 3 consultations / procedures with him. He took the time to go into significant detail on my options and likely outcomes. The subsequent cataract surgery he undertook was virtually painless and I was made to feel calm and cared-for throughout the procedure. The subsequent after-care meeting was also undertaken with rigorous detail and I was left feeling I had been given the best possible attention and care. I cannot recommend Mr Walker highly enough.
