What to Expect
What to expect when you choose Dr Arbabi
A warm welcome
You will be seen by our friendly receptionist who will introduce you to the other members of the team including our highly experienced opticians, nurses and other healthcare professionals. You will have many different tests as suggested by Dr. Arbabi. You will then have a very comprehensive assessment by Dr. Arbabi himself, who will recommend a personalised plan after taking into account all the examinations, the test results and most importantly your priorities. We make sure to maintain our highest integrity and standards, helping you to make a decision that best suits you. You will NEVER be pressurised to have vision correction surgery.
