Review titled Upsetting
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Mrs Nancy Walshaw - Posted on 14 July 2024
I had my 1st cataract op on 10 June 24 at Gateshead Team Valley. From the start to end everything was perfect. The surgeon and his team were wonderful, very caring with me as I have a back problem. However, on 9 July 24 I had my second eye surgery. A very upsetting experience as the surgeon had no patience with me regarding my back issue and I was most upset. The team again I could no fault.

Review titled Unhappy Experience
Rated 2 stars out of 5

I had cataract surgery today at Optegra Newcastle. All the staff were lovely and friendly except for the surgeon who was extremely rude to me. He talked down to me as if I was a child who wouldn’t do what they were told. I left the clinic extremely upset and am in a lot of pain.

Review titled Largely satisfactory experience
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 April 2023
I had a cataract operation today . Reception, pre and post operation staff were great The only downside of an otherwise very satisfactory experience was that throughout the operation the surgeon had an unbroken rant with his assistant about some logistical problem regarding the hospital including a threat to walk out and 'they can get someone else'. I assumed he didn't mean half way through my operation. Bearing in mind my position I resisted the temptation to ask. I realise it is an extremely routine procedure but found it unnerving that he did not appear fully focussed on the task in hand or felt the need to engage with me at all. I guess time will tell. So far I have not experienced the immediate benefit which followed a similar, although more comfortable, operation at Bishop Auckland. Early days.
