From start to finish Mr Petrarca has been excellent in every way. My wife was referred to Mr Petrarca after suffering pressure problems in her eyes that could have caused a glaucoma attack. He saw her the day after calling and carried out laser treatment immediately to release the pressure. He then recommended cataract treatment in both eyes as the long term solution. My wife has always been very nervous regarding her eyes but Mr Petrarca was patient and explained exactly what was happening and going to happen in a very clear and reassuring way. Both cataract operations have now been carried out successfully and as well as solving the pressure problem have given my wife nearly 2020 vision for the first time in her life and she is able to read and drive without glasses (although she is likely to need them for extended reading and night driving. At every stage Mr Petrarca has shown empathy and great care including phoning up on the evenings of the operations to check that my wife was fine and didn't have any questions or concerns. His secretary then phoned up the day afterwards to check again. I can thoroughly recommend Mr Petrarca without a single doubt.
