Miss Poorna Abeysiri MRCS(Ed), M Med Ed, FRCOphth

Miss Poorna Abeysiri Is kind, thoughtful and listens to you She is an excellent Consultant and nothing is too much trouble. She will speak to you in and out of working hours to make sure you are ok. She is so dedicated and puts you at ease. I had an eye operation recently and because of the way she is she takes away any fears that you might have about operations. She was extremely kind and made sure I was ok before I left the hospital and even had a telephone conversation with me that evening checking to make sure Iwas alright this is someone who always goes the extra mile to look after her patients. I have had several Drs over the years who have all been bet nice caring good Drs but Miss Aneybeysiri is truly an exceptional Consultant and nothing is too much trouble. How lucky we are to have her at our hospitals.

Ms Abeysiri has been my consultant for a number of years and although l do not see her on every clinic visit, l am always glad when, after all the tests are done and the long wait to see a doctor starts, it is she who calls me in. She welcomes you cheerily into the room and is ready to answer any queries one might have. She performed my first cataract procedure and is vigilant regarding my glaucoma treatment. I’d like to extend this review to comment on all the staff at Queens opthalmology Team 2 for their caring, polite and warm manner under what mostly seems like enormous pressure of numbers of us patients. The long wait can be exhausting in the hot corridors and must also test the patience of all the staff. I’m not sure how to make a valuable suggestion on how to reduce this unless there could be a way to inform us of how far forward we are in the queue to see the consultant….maybe in a similar way to phone call these days……eg you are number Ten in the queue, etc. we mostly have mobiles these days….then at least we could go out to the toilet, coffee machine, stretch our legs without fear of missing our turn. With thanks

My second cataract operation was a great success in early June. Miss Abeysiri was charming and very competent and the procedure was carried out very smoothly. My follow-up appointment showed that I now have crystal-clear vision and only need mild readers for close work. I am delighted with the results and would thoroughly recommend this consultant and hospital.

Miss Abeysiri is informative, thorough and supportive. I feel lucky to see her as a consultant. (This has been the case in previous consultations too.)

Miss Abeysiri has looked after my glaucoma treatment for nearly twenty years and has always advised me correctly. She said I could have a specific test after telling me it would be definitive but I had the test and all was good

I have been in the care of this Consultant for managing my Glaucoma for about the last 14 or 15 years and have had nothing but excellent care. Her attention to detail and efficiency, combined with real empathy with the patient is faultless. I have undergone three surgical procedures by her and have nothing but admiration for her skills. The fact I still have good vision at my age, is testament enough!

Fantastic can't speak to highly for miss Poorna She performed two cataract operations for my Wife and they have helped her eyesight very well. Mis Poorna. She was so merticulas and she had several appointments before and after the operations whereby she checked her sight and made sure all is right and advised what my Wife should do after. prescribed 2 drops to be put in each eye 4 times a day for a month The service and attention was first class

I have always found Miss Abeysiri courteous, friendly and she clearly know her job I enjoy my visits to her at Hartswood Hospital in Brentwood.

I am very lucky to have her as my eye specialist,she is very caring and an exceptional eye doctor,I have been her patient for a few years now and I could not have got better care, I know she is a brilliant person and doctor to all her patient's, she is definitely one of the best there is

From the beginning of my diagnosis for glaucoma, follow up treatment,outpatient appointments, and post op care I have found Dr Abeysiri professional,personable,attentive and caring.. Initially I had been skeptical about NHS service however Dr Abeysiri's knowledge, expertise and professionalism and her manner in making you feel calm and not just number restores my faith that if you have the right Dr/Consultant you get the right service. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
