VIEW ALLWhat Our Patients Say
At 65, I now have better vision than when I was 17. I was required to wear glasses for driving (driver eye test). I now have 20/20 vision at a time in my life when I would be expected to be getting reduced vision. This is all down to Mr. Behrooz Golchin's expert skill and care. I have had both my cataracts removed and a retinal tear repaired using laser surgery. Fantastic! Now, if I could find a Mr. Behrooz Golchin who specialised in weight management, I would be home and dry.. My sincere thank to Mr. Behrooz Golcin and his team. Keep up the good work!
