A small number of recent reviews raise serious concerns, including a report of a missed diagnosis (eye problem later identified elsewhere as entropion) and allegations of upselling/charging for services without consent; other reviewers, however, describe the clinic as good value compared with corporate chains and cite careful precautions around surgery.
