Reviews
Excellent treatment. Mr Ramesh Sivaraj explained what he was doing, asked if I was ok during the procedure. He couldn't have been more caring. Having had cataract surgery to both eyes I now have 20.20 vision in both eyes unbelievable.
I highly recommend Mr Sivaraj
Mr Sivaraj is a lovely man, very welcoming and he remembered me from my previous appointment when he removed cataracts from both eyes, this made me feel very confident. He made me feel at ease, explaining fully the procedure and what would happen during it. He answered my questions. He is very professional and courteous and I fully recommend him. I am very pleased with Midland Eye.
Very friendly and knowledgeable. During appointments and procedure Mr Ramish Sivaraj took time to explain in detail, never making us feel rushed. A positive outcome from the eye surgery performed.
Mr Sivaraj was courteous and friendly. He explained thoroughly the procedure, it's effects and any drawbacks. He listened to my questions and was very reassuring. He seemed to have good rapport with support staff. I am very pleased with the results
Mr Sivaraj is warm and caring, answered all my questions, gave me excellent advice and carried out my cataract surgery and follow-up appointments to the highest standard.
