I came to Moorfields as they specialise in the treatment of eye care in general and are highly respected worldwide for their expertise. I researched Professor Gartry online and saw that he was very specialised within his field and do not believe I could have gone to anyone else in the UK who is as highly experienced to carry out my LASIK eye surgery as he is, this therefore made me feel much more confident to have my procedure carried out by him under the care of Moorfields than at a high street facility which can be more commercially driven. Any questions I asked to any of the staff at Moorfields whether a general enquiry or a specific question relating to me and my treatment was answered without hesitation. Follow up care was excellent and reassuring.

I experienced excellent service and support from Professor Gartry and all his staff – both clinicians and his office team. The nursing staff at Moorfields were also very good.

My only constructive piece of criticism is that I felt a bit ‘abandoned’ in the waiting room at Moorfields before I went through for surgery. There was quite a gap between my arrival and being seen – nearly an hour I think. I’m sure this is normal but it would have been helpful if one of the nurses or the receptionist had told me on arrival roughly how long I would be waiting. This would have managed my expectations and made me feel more relaxed, as it’s quite an anxious time and I felt I had to chase staff to find out what was happening.

However, this is a small point and my general experience has been hugely positive – and I’ve had an amazing result from the surgery. Thank you!

Arrived to get both eyes corrected for short distance, however Prof Gartry advised on,y getting one eye corrected (dominant) and the other can therefore continue coping with reading. I now have airforce vision (2 better than 20:20) and am pleased to be wearing normal sunglasses! Whole experience has been fantastic and I’m delighted!

Initially, I was worried about the mono vision technique, but I am quite happy, going on 4 months ! Thank you Professor Gartry !

I had my surgery done in September 2016 and it is the best decision I have made. David was brilliant and I would recommend and have done to my friends. I really liked the way he explained everything and answered all my concerning questions. He has a great understanding and he himself has had it done. I was not made to feel pressured into having it anything done and all the staff that work for David were really friendly and helpful. On the day everything was explained about the procedure and aftercare and surgery staff all made me feel relaxed. I really liked the way David talked me through what he was doing and what to expect, as this made me feel relaxed. The surgery itself was painless and I couldn’t believe that afterwards I could see. I had a strong prescription of -7.0 in both eyes and an astigmatism. On my check up after two days I had 20/20 vision and was driving after three days. I highly recommend David and his team. Thank you.
