I attended an appointment for my eye today and It was great. The opthalmologist, Miss Shalala Sobti received me with a warm welcome. She was very respectful and treated me with dignity. She explained to me what the visit was about, the results of my eye test, and advised on the next course of action. She was very professional and good communicator. Thank you Shalaka, keep up the good work.

"I cannot thank [Dr Shalaka Sobti] enough! I struggled with my squint for years and was hesitant about surgery, but from the initial consultation to my post-op check-ups, the team was nothing short of amazing. The procedure itself was incredibly quick, and the discomfort was very minimal—just a few days of paracetamol. It has given me my confidence back, and I no longer hesitate to make eye contact. Once again I wish you all the best.
