Mr Lascaratos has been looking after my me since early this year as I required a pressure reducing operation - following Glucoma in my left eye.
Each time I have met and seen Mr Lascaratos he has treated me with dignity, respect and reassuringly. I have always felt confident and admire his ability to administer his best practice not just to me but also to other patients I have met waiting to be seen in the clinic, even when walking through an OPD clinic corridor and will always smile and say hello and looks very calm.
I have received timely information about my ongoing care and the treatment which is explained well to me and have always felt involved when making decisions regarding my treatment in moving forward at each visit. Mr Lascaratos, is genuinely welcoming and interested in helping and answers all my questions and concerns professionally and in a consise manner, which makes me feel more confident and stree free. An excellent example to the NHS.
