  • Dr Nikhil Cascone performed cataract surgery on both of my 80-year-old mum’s eyes, and we are so grateful for his care. He made her feel completely at ease throughout the whole process, explaining everything clearly and reassuring her at every step. His kindness, patience and professionalism were outstanding. The results have been life-changing for her. We felt supported and confident in his expertise from start to finish. Truly one of the best doctors we have ever come across. Thank you Dr :-)
