Kam Balaggan Ophthalmologist Ltd Arvostelua 549

Kam is extremely good at putting you at your ease and explains what he’s doing fully. He knows just what everyone of his patients needs are. As far as Ophthalmologists go I would not see anyone else only Kam

I've been lucky to have had wonderful opticians for many years; Colin Lee, in Lichfield. When they identified a problem as a retinal membrane on my right eye & development of cataracts in both, I was worried. I've been type 1 diabetic for over 50-years, but had been told there was nothing wrong by the NHS 3-years earlier. I tried to get them to look again, but after waiting 10-months was forced to ask for advice from Colin Lee's, who suggested Mr Balaggan, at Little Aston.
He saw me quickly & agreed that I needed help, booking my first operation in March & second in May. Now (in early June) my distance vision and colour perception has improved markedly, with only minor distortions in my right eye and I'm seeing a referred ophthalmologist for the in two days.
Under these circumstances, I'd always expect the specialist to be good, but in the case of Mr Balaggan's team it's "not only" the consultant, who has been as superb as his reputation that precedes him, "but also" the superb team that support him. Between them all, my experience has been exceptionally good and I'd like to thank everyone in Mr Balaggan's team who's looked after me in the last six-months.

I first met Mr Ballagan at New Cross Hospital, when he diagnosed a Epiretinol Membrane.
I next sought Mr Ballagans advice privately, when my eyesight began to fail over a very short period of time, and he diagnosed cataracts in both eyes.
Mr Ballagan is very attentive, and always thorough in his examinations and diagnostics. I have never felt rushed during appointments, even when he’s been running late.
Both surgeries at the Nuffield hospital were painless and stress free and the theatre team at the Nuffield were so caring and reassuring - big shout out to the anaesthetists who on both occasions, made a real effort to engage and chat, which was lovely of them!
Mr Ballagan was calm, reassuring and efficient.
The results are excellent in first eye, and as very recent, still improving daily in second eye.

A few days after the operation when my sight became clearer it felt like a miracle. I didn't realise how poor my eyesight was.
Many thanks to Mr Balaggan and the Team who are amazing.

A very worthwhile experience with an outstanding improvement in my vision. I am absolutely delighted with the result. Highly recommended.

After the way I was let down and poorly treated through the NHS for such a long time, meeting Dr Kam Balaggan was the turning point I desperately needed. I had been struggling badly with my left eye and felt ignored, frustrated, and honestly losing hope that anybody genuinely cared or would help me properly.

From the very beginning, Dr Balaggan treated me with kindness, respect, and compassion. He listened carefully, took my concerns seriously, and finally gave me the expert care I should have received a long time ago. His professionalism and skill are outstanding, but what meant the most to me was that he truly cared about helping me get my life back.

Thanks to Dr Balaggan, my left eye has been sorted and my quality of life has improved massively. I cannot put into words how grateful I am for everything he has done for me. After such a difficult experience beforehand, he restored not only my trust in medical care but also my confidence and hope again.

I will never forget what he has done for me, and I would recommend him to anybody without hesitation.

The care and attention I received from Mr. Balaggan, his team, the nurses, and the catering staff was outstanding. My vision is now fantastic after cataract surgery; I can see both near and far without glasses, which I never thought would be possible.

Because I was very anxious on the day, the staff went out of their way to put me at ease and reassure me. The procedure itself was quick and painless—I was back in my room before I knew it, enjoying tea and a delicious lunch (the food is outstanding!). Mr. Balaggan's secretary also followed up the day after both surgeries to check on my recovery and was incredibly helpful. I couldn't recommend them more highly

Excellent care from Kam. Superb result after the procedures. Would highly recommend

I have always been apprehensive about eye surgery, but having undergone double lens replacement surgery with Mr Balaggan two weeks ago, all I can say is that I wished I had done it many years ago. From the initial consultation through to the follow-up assessment, the whole experience has been incredible. Mr Balaggan explained everything clearly and concisely, including all the potential benefits and risks associated with the procedure. and any question, no matter how trivial, was answered with professionalism and courtesy. From being incredibly short-sighted, my sight improved immediately and is continuing to improve. I can read a book, work at a computer, watch television and drive, all without the aid of glasses. Mr Balaggan recommended the Clareon Vivity lens and the results have been amazing. It has been truly life-changing and l will be forever grateful. Thank you!

Professional care and consideration of patient with full explanation of procedures along the way make for a relaxed and confident patient

Having recently had cataract procedures in both eyes, Mr Balaggan ensured that the experience (on both occasions) was a positive one. Mr Balaggan explained every step with care and empathy, allaying any worries I had, and was reassuring from start to finish, including super aftercare too. My recovery from both procedures was seamless, vision in both eyes is now amazing, and I can drive confidently at night again!!! Thank you too to Debbie, his secretary, always at hand on the other end of the telephone or an email, and to his team of professionals.

After our local eye hospital saying my eye operation was problematic. Both had Cataracts but with other issues. I was recommended to Mr Balaggan who conducted eye surgery on both of my eyes one month apart and both operations were successful. I found him to be a very pleasant helpful person that put me at ease and gave me confidence in his ability to sort out my eye problem. I would recommend anyone with issues with their eyes to contact him for assistance. I now have good vision that I have not had for years.

The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. Mr Balaggan explained everything, and put me at ease with his friendly approachable manner. My procedure was painless and my sight was improved immediately and continues to improve as the days and weeks go by. I now have 20/20 vision, can read a newspaper and drive without glasses. I had trifocals lens implants which l can absolutely recommend, l am so pleased with the results. Thank you

Because of cataracts, my eyesight had deteriorated to the point where it was almost illegal for driving. I therefore resolved our cataract surgery and chose Mr Kam Balaggan as my surgeon. Because I have a lazy eye, I couldn't have trifocal lenses and had to have extended vision lenses. However, the results were remarkable and my eyesight is now almost fully recovered. I will only need glasses for close reading.

After reading previous patient reviews I chose Mr Kam Balaggan for my recent cataract eye surgery in both eyes. I found the treatment and care received to be first class from an extremely professional, caring, excellent surgeon, along with his secretary and the staff at Spires Eye Centre.
I was apprehensive about eye surgery but Mr Balaggan put me at ease from the initial appointment, through both ops and post op appointment where he explained fully every step of the way.
I am very pleased with the successful outcome and would highly recommend Mr Balaggan to anyone needing eye surgery. Thank you to all the team.

Fantastic service from start to finish from Kam and his team. The cataract procedure was completed without any problems and had exceptional sight within 48 hrs. and getting better. No complications thereafter. Everything was explained in detail and in advance.

It was a very happy visit to see you I had my scan quite quickly but unfortunately you were called away to an emergency ,but I saw you quite soon after.

Extra ordinary outcomes- expert treatment, very relaxed procedure, an absolutely no pain!

I can highly recommend Kam Balaggan and his secretary Debbie. I had cataract lens replacement surgery with toric lenses and I am very pleased with the results. My vision is now excellent with no need for glasses any longer. The procedure was smooth and the team was very professional throughout. Debbie was very helpful and professional at all times. I can highly recommend the whole team!

Mr Ballaggan and his secretary Debbie have gone above and beyond in providing excellent care during and after my cataract surgery. I cannot praise highly enough the service and the results they have provided.
I fully recommend anyone needing eye surgery to seek them out.
