Mr Awad was first class in every aspect. His skills were of such a high standard that no one would know I had had surgery. He treated me with respect, kindness and compassion. I was always kept fully informed and I am extremely grateful for the high standard of care I have received from him.

A very busy day in Opthalmology. Had quite a long wait for my appointment. My appointment went extremely well. Mr Awad has a very polite and caring approach. Procedure to remove my stent was explained and subsequently carried out satisfactorily. Extremely good.

Overall it was a very good experience and I’m very happy with the result of my procedure. Mr Awad was very helpful in explaining the procedure & I noted how kind and professional he was with the staff helping him. I was very at ease throughout. The only slight downside was the appointments’ system as there was quite a wait for both the initial consultation & follow-up. The hot chocolate on offer helped! I would however, take up his services again, if needed.
