My consultation with Ms Mead at The Chiltern Hospital was a positive experience in every respect. The hospital was busy yet maintained a calm atmosphere. Ms Mead was exceedingly thorough, carefully explaining her diagnosis and the options thereon wards.

Ms Mead was very thorough in her examination of my eyes, took time to ask about my medical history, to explain my vision problems in straightforward terminology, and outline alternatives in moving things forwards. I left feeling I was in the most expert care.
