Explanation

Diagnosis was within 1 minute which had been missed by my optician and very efficient booking of operation. Operation went smoothly and I was impressed with the after care prior to discharge. Mr Dong Park took great care to explain everything and was very happy to answer all of my questions. All staff at Midlands Eye were faultless.

Mr Park thoroughly deserves 5 star ratings throughout. Mr Park fully explained the whole procedure, pars plana vitrectomy for floaters, both prior and post operation to myself and to my husband. He gave me great confidence with his professionalism and positivity, listening to my concerns as I was a nervous patient. He is such an approachable, gifted eye surgeon and was brilliant throughout my whole journey. I can't praise him enough and would always recommend Mr Park without any hesitation for his amazing professional skills.
