2nd opinion

[Bazzer65]

Hi

I am looking at getting a 2nd opinion privately to see what stage my glaucoma is at and also if I am having/ had the correct treatment

I have looked at Moorfields Hospital in London and wondered if this is the best hospital or has anyone got any recommendations/advice

thank you

I think it has very high reviews .. I took my dad using NHS there at city road but they have clinics everywhere now .. the treatment and care were outstanding ..

I am now being looked after by Moorfields private following poor treatment elsewhere and would recommend them .

[Bazzer65 in reply to pjhl]

I’ve booked with Moorfields in March as I have heard so many good reviews about them

Thank you for replying

Definitely recommend- there is a list of consultants on their website so you can choose a glaucoma specialist.

Hi Bazzer65, You will receive excellent care; Moorfields Eye Hospital is recognised as a world standard centre for all kinds of eye care. (I used to work there.)

which part of the country do you live ? As can thoroughly recommend my Consultant in the Portsmouth area. However if you are nearer to Moorfields sounds like very good treatment . Good luck .

Hi thank you for your reply I’m miles away from Portsmouth so opted for Moorfields in London

I’m in Portsmouth and thinking about a second opinion, main problems are glaucoma & cataracts. Who is the consultant you recommend please?

[Olivertwist24 in reply to Piggy-in-the-middle]

Sorry to hear that . Mr James Kirwan at Queen Alexander Hospital & Spire Hospital Havant . I am seeing him privately had my eye op at QA. But see him for consultations at the Spire. He did my trabulectomy operation successfully & about to have 2nd op. He has done lots of research into glaucoma and the type of operation I had. Good luck .

[Piggy-in-the-middle in reply to Olivertwist24]

Many thanks, he’s one of my consultants. Good to know you think so highly of him.

Hello Bazzer65, Whereabouts are you? If you are in the Midlands, I would definitely recommend my chap, who is based in the Birmingham area. Just ask if you’d like more details, etc.

[Bazzer65 in reply to Rainyday2024]

Thank you I appreciate that but I have now booked an appointment at Moorfields

Hope all goes well.

Hi. I went to Moorfields Eye Hospital for a 2nd opinion many years ago and have stayed under their care to present day. I do not live local to the hospital but happy to travel as the care you receive is excellent.

[Bazzer65 in reply to Mitziecat]

That’s good to hear as I thought I would need to stay under my local NHS

I’ve booked an appointment in March as I

Thank you
