“I consulted with Mr Patton previously in 2018 for floater removal with an excellent outcome and I received the same excellent standard of care and professionalism this recent occasion for AMD treatment in 2021. He fully explains the treatment and questions are welcomed and answered fully. He is also very ethical ensuring you are aware if treatment is available on the NHS. I travel some distance to consult with Mr Patton as you cannot put a price on your eye sight and I fully trust his diagnoses and treatments.“

I am an optometrist and as such had heard of Mr Patton’s expertise and I have now experienced it for myself. Not only are his clinical skills second to none but he also has excellent communication skills and bedside manner (sadly lacking in others). I had no worries at all whilst being under his care.
