What our patients say

"Mr Ross removed a cataract for me which was carried out very skilfully, confidently and with compassion. I was very fearful but he helped ally my fears with his professionalism and years of experience. It is really amazing how much sharper the world is again… even down to dust on skirting boards but also the shapes of leaves on the trees, faces from a distance and sign posts on longer journeys. Just brilliant! Thank you so much."

"I had cataract surgeries for my eyes with Mr Ross in August and September 2024. I have an excellent vision now. Mr Ross is a very professional and competent surgeon. His preoperative assessment and explanation are very comprehensive and his postoperative care is superb."

GoogleToe Lwin

"Mr Ross and his team gave me the most excellent service, put me at ease and explained everything that was going to happen, I would highly recommend his service."

GoogleShaun Pillinger

"Having lens replacement in both eyes was something I had been thinking about for many years. I have worn varifocal glasses for about 20 years. Due to the nature of my work and my high anxiety about anything to do with eyes I wanted both eyes done at the same time under general anaesthetic. I understand this was unusual but having explained everything, including the risks involved, to me Mr Ross agreed. Unfortunately I contracted Covid shortly before my procedure was due to take place. It was postponed with no issues. I have had my new lenses now for 12 days and haven’t worn glasses since the op. A follow up appointment was arranged which confirmed everything was fine. I would like to thank Mr Ross and all the team for excellent service and would highly recommend Mr Ross to anyone considering this procedure."

GoogleSusan Cameron

"I met with Mr Ross to discuss my surgery. He explained the whole process thoroughly and was happy to spend time answering questions I had. I immediately felt reassured that surgery was the right option for me. The whole process of selecting a date (of which I was offered several), pre op paperwork etc was dealt with smoothly by his Admin Team. On the day of the surgery I was looked after by an excellent team of ward staff, and was constantly kept informed of the surgery process. My surgery (on both eyes) has been extremely successful, life changing in fact. After care appointments were all organised to fit with my work diary, and you are encouraged to make contact if you have ANY concerns. I cannot recommend Mr Ross and his team highly enough."

"I had two eye cataract lense replacement surgeries done by Mr Ross. Both times the result was excellent. I chose multi-focal (PanOptix) lenses, giving me now distant, mid-range and near vision, no reading glasses required. Having worn glasses and contact lenses all my life this comes as a huge surprise to me, it truly is brilliant. Mr Ross is an expert in his field and it was a pleasure dealing with him. Nuffield hospital in Clifton, Bristol is a very welcoming and comfortable place, all appointments happened right on time. The surgeries were scheduled within a couple of weeks after my first consultation. All in all highly recommended."

GoogleAlois Mosmang

"Excellent care and outcome. Can see better following cataract surgery expertly administered than for at least 30b ears"

GoogleSimon Scott-Barrett

"I have recently had two cataracts removed under the care of Mr Ross. I was certainly an anxious patient, but Mr Ross took whatever time was needed to reassure me, and agreed to me having a general anaesthetic for the procedures. On the day of each of my operations, he visited prior to the surgery to reassure me once again and again following the surgery. I was a nurse many years ago and can honestly say that the care I received from Mr Ross is second to none."

GoogleDiane Dougall

"A professional, caring and friendly service with a fantastic outcome. From the first contact with his secretary, Anna, to the final follow up appointment, every element of the service received has been top class and painless. Having had cataract surgery on both eyes, the end result is unbelievable. After wearing glasses/contact lenses for the past 45 years, they are now no longer needed and my vision is perfect. Thank you ever so much. Steve."

GoogleSteve Dodds

"First class care throughout. Good welcome, clear explanations, accurate technical care, appropriate follow-up."

"Cant praise Adam more! Excellent explanation of procedure, lovely sympathetic attention during surgery and very attentive after care. Was able to contact him easily after with queries and responded quickly. Will highly recommend."

Doctify

"Mr Ross and his team have been absolutely marvellous. Everything has been explained thoroughly and clearly.

The operation itself was painless and quick and could see more clearly immediately after the procedure. I would highly recommend this procedure."
