I would like to book a private consultation following glaucoma diagnosis earlier this year, I’ve had 3 follow up appointments cancelled by the eye clinic after being told that I needed 3 monthly check ups until I was stable, the latest appointment will mean I’ve waited 6 months.
Can anyone recommend a private consultant in the Warwickshire/West Midlands area please?
Hello Sodalover,
Sorry to hear of the problems you’re been experiencing. I can thoroughly recommend my private consultant/surgeon - Mr Imran Masood. He’s a very nice chap and easy to talk to! I usually see him at his rooms in 38 Harborne Road, Edgbaston, Birmingham. Secretary - Yvette Young, 0121 605 1884. He also does NHS at the Birmingham and Midland Eye Centre - in face he did my eye operation there 18 weeks ago, although I went private. If you have health insurance, I’m pretty sure he works from several other clinics/hospitals but you’d have to do a Google search to find out which and where. Hope this helps! Regards, Gill
Thank you so much for your response, I’ll definitely look at seeing Mr Masood
I’m sure you’d find him very helpful. He trained at Moorfields in London and has several articles on YouTube which you might find interesting/useful.
I have also been treated by Mr Masood both within the NHS and privately. He is a brilliant surgeon and I trust him absolutely with the care of my eyes.
Hello Sodalover, I hope you are keeping well. I was reading through some of the older posts and came across yours, asking about consultants in the West Midlands/Warwickshire area. Did you manage to see someone? If so, I hope all went well.
