Review titled Cataract Surgery (NHS)
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 18 February 2025
I was very impressed with the pre-booking of my OPA, as the appointment was worked around me and the ability to get there (as I live in Wales and under the Welsh NHS). Outpatient assessment was welcoming and very efficient. Everyone introduced themselves and explained the what was about to happen, before going to the next member of the MDT. They were all friendly and treated me with respect and dignity. The building seemed to have been newly built and was set up to work efficiently, with everything at hand. It was clean and welcoming. As it was a small unit, there were no large impersonal waiting areas, as in the NHS hospitals, which was much better. The day of surgery (yes, a Saturday which worked out better for me) was uneventful. The staff were again very welcoming and explained each step of the way. The discharge pack was informative and the follow up phone call excellent. It's a shame that the waiting list in Wales is so much longer than in England (by well over a year), as this operation is certainly life enhancing. I would certainly recommend this unit for anyone who was requiring cataract surgery (NHS or Private). I am only a few days post op and it has made a huge difference to my sight already.

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Dr Bruce Eden - Posted on 06 February 2025
Seen very quickly and both cataracts removed within 3 weeks of initial assessment. Assessment carried out by 4 different staff members culminating with Consultant who answered my questions. Both operation days also seamless and operation itself painless and quick. Explanations of what to expect and what to do post-op were comprehensive. Excellent result with left eye and right eye (24 hours after operation) pain free with no discharge. Expecting similar good result within next 2-3 days. Communications both by telephone (before and after surgery) and written helpful and clear. It’s impossible to make any adverse comments about such an excellent service and I can recommend Newmedica Shrewsbury without reservation.

Review titled Very professional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 31 January 2025
Had my first cataract operation here and was very impressed with the facility from the moment I walked through the door. The staff were welcoming and friendly and put you at ease. After various tests I saw a consultant who explained the procedure and the likely outcome. I was then offered surgery for 3 days later. This has now been completed and the vision in that eye is very improved. A follow-up call was made to me the day after and one day later I was offered an appointment for 4 weeks later for the second eye operation. I couldn’t rate Newmedica Shrewsbury higher.

Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gail Crewe - Posted on 23 January 2025
I had cataract surgery in Jan '25. I was feeling anxious prior to surgery. The team at NewMedica have been amazing from start to finish. I really couldn't thank them enough. Everything was explained and I was able to ask questions and gain the answers from professionals. I found being able to talk to others who had just been discharged from surgery whilst I was briefly in the waiting area really beneficial. The written information given before surgery and especially post surgery is clear and concise with everything you need to know. The eye drop timetable really helps. I would recommend NewMedica - 5 star service.

Review titled first class
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by iain macrae - Posted on 08 December 2024
The timegap between exam in specsavers to assessment at shrewsbury was 2 weeks and the date for the op was arranged at that assessment for 10 days later. Similar time scale as I had the second cataract done 5 weeks later. New medica is an efficient and skillful operation. Use them!!

Review titled First Class Clinic
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mrs Marian Bosman - Posted on 30 November 2024
Outstanding Service from the time of my first visit through to discharge after surgery. Prior to first visit I had a telephone call to check the date was still agreeable for me and I was then offered a date for surgery. No long waiting for that, I choose the day after first appointment. I was seen promptly on both my visits by pleasant informative and efficient staff. The information given both verbal & written was excellent especially "The Postoperative Eye Drop Timetable" chart which is so helpful clear and concise. The telephone call from a nurse on the following day was well appreciated especially the advice on how to contact the clinic out of hours. Wonderful service.

Review titled Life changing experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by John B - Posted on 12 February 2025
I had both my cataracts treated at Newmedica and couldn't be more impressed with the whole service and experience. The staff were all very friendly and the operations were quick (10 mins) and painless and I can honestly say the results are life-changing, I can now see perfectly. I would highly recommend Newmedica Shrewsbury.

Review titled Second cataract operation, same excellent experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mark Turner - Posted on 25 December 2024
I’ve had both cataracts treated this year and both times the treatment was excellent. The process itself is completely painless, the premises in Shrewsbury are new and the staff are both professional and friendly. Treatment was available promptly and when flooding prevented me getting to Shrewsbury for my second operation it was rearranged for two days later. Newmedica Shrewsbury is the epitome of how private practice providing NHS services should work.
