Professor Faruque Ghanchi

Written by a patient at Yorkshire Clinic

I attended the Yorkshire Clinic and Professor Faruque for cataract operations on both of my eyes. I was very nervous but Professor Faruque explained everything very clearly to me. He was very patient and understanding and put me totally at ease. The procedure only took about ten minutes and at all times he took care to tell me what was happening and made sure I was comfortable. It is now four weeks after the second operation and the results have been marvellous. It has made a big difference to my life and I am enjoying seeing the world more clearly again and can appreciate all the wonderful colours around me. Professor Faruque is an extremely professional but also very kind and caring person. I would highly recommend him.

I am writing this on behalf of my sister who went to Prof Ghanchi with macular degeneration and a cataract in her right eye which had rendered her virtually blind in that eye. In her left eye she also had a cataract which had rapidly got worse over the last few months. Since she was going virtually blind anyway and under great mental stress she was more than willing to seek a second opinion from Prof Ghanchi. She was immediately put at ease by his friendly welcome and calm professional manner. When he said he was more than willing to remove the cataract on her left eye she was absolutely over the moon! He had given her hope of regaining some of her sight where non seemed to exist. He was extremely confident it would be a success and even jokingly suggested she should have a party! The operation duly went ahead with great success and she has regained her sight in that eye. The clouds had truly parted for her. She cannot praise Prof Ghanchi too highly for his competence, his caring attitude and advice. The mental side of dealing with eye defects of nearly blind patients is something which I think cannot be over estimated. I thought was something that Prof Ghanchi fully demonstrated and showed great empathy with my sister. At her operation review meeting she was quite emotional and finished her thanks with simply saying ""top man, top job you have made my day" to which Prof Ghanchi replied sincerely to say she had made his day as well!

Couldn't ask for better care. Totally puts you at ease and has a great sense of humour to boot - which adds to the positive experience. He operated on a cataract in my left eye something that a 30yr old wouldn't normally go through. Prof Ghanchi was brilliant from the very beginning and now I have even better vision than before my cataract - all thanks to him and his teams great work.

Professor Ghanchi is not only one of the best ophthalmologist, but one of the nicest doctors I have ever met! He is so kind and caring, and really looked after me. He knew I was nervous before surgery and he came to reassure me and calm me down before the operation. The results of the cataract removal are amazing, I feel like everything looks HD after months of cloudy, dull vision. I can’t recommend Professor Ghanchi and his team enough, thank you!
