A true gentleman, skilful surgeon and so approachable. He listens and puts you at ease encouraging you to ask questions. He has a sense of humour which comforts you. I would most definitely recommend Mr Bowes and would not hesitate to contact him in the future.
My eye sight now brings me confidence to venture in to unfamiliar situations. Thank you Mr Bowes

I would definitely recommend Mr Oliver Bowes, he is very kind & friendly and explains things very clearly.
I have had cataract surgery on both eyes and it had made such a difference to my life, after being very short sighted & wearing contact lenses for almost 40 years I now only need glasses for reading/ close up.

I had both Cataracts done by Mr Bowes recently.
I cannot recommend him high enough for his care and expertise in his field.
Mr Bowes makes you feel at ease during the operations and follow up appointments.
Thankyou so much

I would certainly recommend Mr Oliver Bowes he had the most amazing calming manner. From the very first meeting he made me feel at ease and explained everything in way that I completely understood. He communicated all the time and said if I had any problems not to hesitate to contact him. I did have a few questions after the operation and he came back to me immediately and even arranged for me to be seen the very same day, I was so impressed. He even telephoned whilst on holiday to make sure I was OK. Mr Oliver Bowes was very caring and took on board all my fears.
