Mr Sivaraj was extremely efficient and was very approachable and answered all my queries to alleviate any concerns I had. He talked me through the surgery and put me at my ease. He was very happy with the results of the surgery and his delight and enthusiasm for the results were palpable. I will have no worries about going for the second bout of surgery under his care.

Mr Sivaraj performed laser surgery on both my eyes. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He took great care to explain things and answer my questions clearly before and after the procedures; there was no pain or discomfort afterwards; and my eyesight is now amazing!
