MEET OUR FRIENDLY TEAM
Our Optometrists
Our optometrists are all highly skilled and registered with the General Optical Council. Several of them have been associated with this practice for many years, whilst others have joined us more recently to help address the increasing demand for our services. Working as a team we provide a full and comprehensive eyecare service.
Our dispensing opticians
We are a completely independently owned practice and whilst many of the large multiple optical outlets rely on unqualified supporting staff, all our dispensing opticians are fully qualified and registered with the General Optical Council. They have been trained not only in spectacle dispensing but also in the provision of aids for Low Vision and dispensing to children. They also provide contact lens instruction and are skilled in the repair of frames.
Our support staff
Our dedicated team of receptionists and dispensing assistants are always on hand to help you make appointments, answer queries and give you advice during your visit. They will assist you in the completion of forms so you derive maximum benefit from your NHS and other government entitlements.
