Mr Sivaraj was considerate and had a caring manner. He kept me totally informed of the procedure during the operation. Would happily recommend him to other patients.

He was very reassuring and talked to me explaining every step as he performed the procedure,this made me relaxed and felt that I was in safe hands . The after care was explained very well and as someone who finds putting drops in my eyes I was reassured that I could manage and did . I enjoyed going back to see the surgeon he was very welcoming and pleased that my sight was so much better . To sum up I would highly recommend midland eye staff and especially DrSivaraj Ramesh and cannot praise them more highly
