- A most excellent consultant
- Professional doctor, I would recommend him to other patients
- Mr Almousa and team are very friendly. They looked after me from the minute I walked in. Mr Almousa was talking to me all the way through the precedure, so I wouldn’t get scared. And it was a harmless op, didn’t feel a thing. Excellent job. Thanks again.
- Really professional
- After a few teething problems with timed appointments that were rectified professionally I am very happy with how things have panned out and I would totally recommend Optimax and Mr Amousa.
- Very pleased and Mr A was very reassuring
- The doctor made everything about my surgery comfortable and eased my nerve which made all the difference to my anxiety. tEven in surgery he was comforting. Recommend 100% and the surgery he performed on me today was life changing! Super grateful
- I had Wavefront IntraLase LASIK with Mr Almousa at Optimax Manchester in Oct ‘21. He was professional and reassuring, and happy to answer my questions. The results of my surgery have been excellent and I would be happy to recommend Mr Almousa for LASIK.
- An excellent overall experience. In particular I liked being told by Mr Almousa exactly what he was doing as the operation went along. As I was feeling nervous this really helped me to relax.
- Mr Almousa made me feel completely at ease before and during my Lasik eye surgery. I cannot thank him and the team enough and I would highly recommend him to anyone considering eye surgery.
