Very good eye consultant, saw me and diagnosed a lesion on my eye that I would still be waiting on the NHS to be seen (the original referral was 2 years ago). Helpful, knowledgeable, if you’re looking for a private eye consultant who is the top of their field of expertise I would 100% recommend Hadi Zambarakji.
