My personal experience was fantastic.All the staff and surgeon were very professional and made me very comfortable and relaxed.I know that I will have to have my other cataract done and hope to have it done here again. L A BLAIR

Very pleased with my eye surgery at Mr Panthagani's surgery. The treatment comprised an initial consultation, cataract surgery on both eyes separately and two follow-up checks post-op. Mr Panthagani is an excellent consultant, very clear about the problems and his approach to treatment with a very friendly and sympathetic approach. I would certainly recommend him to family and friends. The services provided at Glendon Wood Hospital were also excellent and worthy of recommendation

Over the last few years I have been building up the courage to have lens replacement surgery. I had age related issues with my sight which had started to impact on my sport (golf), driving and day to day life. My optician recommended Jesse Panthagani as a leader in his field so 5 weeks ago I decided to take the jump. The initial video consultation with his manager was extremely informative and from there I booked my consultation at Glendon Wood. I was still nervous as this was a lifestyle choice and not a medical need. Jesse was clearly very knowledgeable, and extremely personable. He reassured me and explained what he could do for me. Less than a week later I found myself on the operating table having my procedure in both eyes. The whole experience was amazing, no pain, plenty of reassurance and caring staff and within two hours I was on the train on my way home. I have had follow up calls from Jesse's team to check on me and a follow up appointment with him 7 days later . I am still on drops four time a day but so far so good and it has been money well spent. I now have 20-20 vision again! I would highly recommend Jesse to any of my friends or family

I am so pleased with my cataract surgery, I can't thank dr Panthagani enough, I can see so much better out of my right eye and things are a lot brighter,I can even watch the tv without my glasses,he put me at ease throughout the procedure, I hope for the same result from my other eye when it is done

Mr Panthagani was very nice, told me what was happening and I felt reassured. Every body was friendly and helpful and I felt very comfortable with everything that happened

All personnel involved were very pleasant and professional. Each step of the procedure was explained by Mr Panthagani as it happened throughout the operation. For someone who has an extreme eye phobia the cataract procedure was without any stress and it was all over before I knew it. The after care was superb. Thanks to all involved.

Mr Panthagani treatment to replace both my cataracts was exemplary. Everything was explained to me very thoroughly , I was put at ease and felt I was listened to when I explained my worries. Although I was very nervous the procedure was very quick and painless. I needn’t have worried. I would definitely recommend. From start to finish I felt looked after.

I have recently had cataract removal surgery on both of my eyes at Glendon Wood Hospital in Kettering.The services I received have been exemplary throughout.Great pre operative & Post operative,Excellent communication from all Staff & Dr Panthagani was wonderful & Really made me feel at ease throughout.The after care communication has been great with even a call from the consultant himself to check all was ok & That I was happy with the results. Excellent service & Experience.J Moss

I was given the best of attention and treatment throughout. From first being referred to now (one week after the procedure). The actual procedure was performed calmly and swiftly approximately 20mins. I was relaxed and felt no pain. Perhaps a little discomfort but nothing like one might expect. All good now and I look forward to the next few weeks when there will be more gradual improvement.

Having been referred to Jesse by my optician, I was unsure what would happen and what to expect. Jesse put me at ease straight away. He identified that not only did I have an issue with my cataracts, I also had astigmatism. I chose the toric multi focal lenses, so I would be able to see close up and distance. He also said he would do both eyes at the same time, which I hadn’t heard of before. The operation in Leicester went really well, with no issues from the minute I walked in the door, to now, one week on, following my follow up appointment. I was able to see very clearly within 24 hours of the operation and able to read number plates from a distance. I cannot express how grateful I am to Jesse for giving me my eye sight back! Thanks Jesse.

Two weeks today I was given a cataract operation and I am absolutely over the moon with the results. Right from my initial visit for a eye check which was done very thoroughly by Mr Panthageni and I was explained everything about the treatment, then going into Glendon Wood again first class treatment by everyone and I even got a nurse call after a week to see how I was doing then at 10 days Mr Panthagini called me himself. This could not have been better if I was a private patient.

Mr Panthagani is very professional, polite and puts you at ease. He answers any questions or queries you may have.

The environment and the staff couldn't be better. Everything was perfect. The procedure I had (cataract removal) was perfectly executed in comparison to a similar procedure at another hospital when it took longer, and I couldn't see for 3 days. Here, I could see so much better within minutes. I am absolutely thrilled to bits. It couldn't have gone better. 5 stars to the surgeon, Mr Panthagani, and all the staff. Thank you so much.

The kindest people with first class service and outstanding results

I had my left eye operated on at Glendon Wood Hospital on 24th September by Mr Jesse Panthagani,and it has really made a massive difference to my life. I am over the moon how well the operation went,and would have no hesitation in recommending this very caring,professional doctor and this clinic to everyone.

I recently had my right eye cataract removed by Dr Panthagani, a few months after the left cataract and I must thank him and his team for the flawless professionalism, care, compassion and empathy shown on both occasions. I would highly recommend Dr Panthagani as an excellent surgeon to anyone considering this surgery.

A totally satisfying and successful experience from start to finish. Following my cataract surgery I now have two newly re-furbished eyes with new lenses such that I do not need to wear glasses any longer. Wonderful! Many thanks to Mr Panthagani and his support team for making it all a stress free and pleasant process. Future patients will be in good hands.

Well what can , Mr Panthagani did my second cataract and the experience has been nothing but perfect, he has been helpful and accommodating all the way through. I know what lens I wanted before I went to see Mr Panthagani which was to be the same as my other eye and he agreed although he show me all me option beforehand. So the surgery was book for a few weeks later and on the day he clammed my nerves and reassured me all the way through the surgery and told me what was happening also all the staff were friendly and in the operating room it was a uplifting experience with music and happy vibe which just made everything a lot better. Now 1 week on I am pleased to say it was a success and have 20/20 version in the operated eye and I am over the moon. So if you are think of going private or nhs please don't give it another thought and book your appointment with Mr Panthagani . Thank you 😊 🙏

I would most defiantly highly recommend Mr Jesse Panthagani. After having both of my eyes successfully treated with new lenses, it is so fantastic to be able to see so clearly again, and to live life fully. I was extremely nervous and anxious about having this surgery, but right from the moment I had my first consultation. I felt that Mr Panthagani took time to listen to my concerns as a person and not as a statistic. I felt that I was safe and supported by him and all the staff on the day. and my follow up appointments. much Gratitude.

I am very pleased I followed up the advise to have my 2nd eye done even if I don't see much with it but in the end I am sure the vision I have now is better than it has been. and in the whole it has been an efficient experience. thank you

I had my 2nd eye cataract surgery on 21/08/25 and this was a very successful operation. This was a wonderful experience as the team at Glendon Hospital were simply superb from start to finish. They were very professional in their approach, explained the process well, were reassuring and put me at ease. The team ensured that I was well looked after during the procedure and afterwards. I was given adequate information and leaflets post the operation. I also received a phone call from a nurse and subsequently from the eye specialist consultant to address any concerns and to ensure that I was healing nicely. I couldn't have asked for anything better and I would say that I did feel very supported and privileged to have had such a fabulous experience. Thank you to such a brilliant team.

I am delighted with the results of my cataract operation and my wonderful vision with the new lenses. I had worn gas permeable contact lenses for 60 years and I always hated wearing glasses. I felt that it was vanity making me consider having premium cataract surgery and I was worried about the safety of it at the age of 81. Niamh persuaded me that the operation was very suitable for long term contact lens wearers and on meeting Mr Panthagani he quickly dispelled all my fears. He is so calm and careful in his explanations and I immediately felt I was in very capable hands. I was nervous on the day but all the staff involved were so kind and encouraging and now, four days later, my distance vision is perfect and my near sight is nearly perfect and I know it is getting better day by day. I can't thank Mr Panthagani enough and I shall certainly recommend him to friends and family.

If you’re thinking about have LASIK, go for it! After having it now I really wish I’d had it done sooner. I’ve been wearing contact lenses and glasses for 27 years and I still can’t believe that I won’t need those again! I’m writing this 4 days after my treatment and I’m still waking up everyday amazed that I can see without specs! I cannot fault the way that Jesse and his team have looked after me from my initial appointment to my post treatment care. Jesse and everyone that has spoken to me on the way has been extremely informative, thorough with pre examinations and at the end of the phone should I have any questions. On the day of the LASIK I was a little nervous but everyone was so kind and reassuring. Jesse spoke to me throughout the whole procedure and made the process calming and relaxing. I needn’t have been nervous because the whole thing was completely and utterly pain free and over in roughly 20mins! And as soon as I got off of the bed I could see - it was absolutely incredible! On my journey home I kept pointing out things to my husband and saying “oh wow I can read that!” Jesse saw me the next day to check how my eyes were and after reading out the letters on the screen he told me that my vision was better than 20/20! I’ve not experienced that in a long time. I can’t describe in words how much this has changed my life and how amazing it feels to be able to wake up in the morning and see without reaching for my specs. I’ve already recommended Jesse to my sister-in-law and my friend. It’s been the best decision I’ve ever made. Thank you all so much 🩷

From start to finish, absolutely AMAZING!! My initial consultation (due to cataracts) was put forward by my local optician. I was in consultation within 6 weeks. Then, following my consultation with (the very pleasant) Mr. Panthagani, I decided to go for the multi focal lens replacement. The procedure was private, rather than having a standard lens on the NHS. All sectors of the staff who aided me on my eye opening experience were incredible, they were polite, reassuring and very professional. I’m trying to keep this short, but would thoroughly recommend this clinic time and time again. BRAVO TO THE WHOLE TEAM!!!

The whole process was very efficient and pain free when my cataract was removed. No needles involved !

Mr Panthagani's kindly and professional manner and the ability to make me feel at ease, helped me such a lot when I first visited his clinic. I appreciated the thorough explanations of procedures, the care taken to answer all questions. I am absolutely delighted with the results of my treatment, my vision has improved greatly. My special thanks also extends to all the caring clinic staff.

It was a really scary thought that at 80 I was to have cateract surgery but having booked in at Glendon Wood Hospital with Mr Panthagani and his excellent team I was made to feel very much at ease . My recovery has been quick and really successful, now booking for my second eye.

The whole experience from my initial consultation with Mr Panthagani to the completion of my cataract surgery was totally positive. The team at Glendon Wood Hospital were friendly, professional and reassuring.

I had one eye (cataract & new lens) done in July, and the other one done in early August. Results fantastic--after 40 years I have thrown away my contact lenses, and only need readers for close work. Everything was done beautifully and I can't compliment the surgeon and his team too highly.

Tremendous care and attention given by every member of staff. Dr Panthagi was very clear in explaining every aspect of the procedure. He listened to my questions and explained everything clearly. He was reassuring throughout the surgery - I was awake during the procedure. The surgery went very well and I am making good progress during my recovery.

Pleasant surroundings. Friendly and efficient staff. Operation quick and efficient. Result of cataract removal is sight much improved in both eyes. Good follow up by nurse and surgeon. I would recommend this clinic.

I can totally recommend Mr Panthagani and the team at Glendon Wood hospital. I have now had cataract surgery to both my eyes and his calm, reassuring demeanour has been exemplary. He provided answers to all my questions and explained the procedure in detail both at the initial consultation and at the time of my surgery. Post operative care was explained fully and I’ve felt confident that if i had further concerns I could contact him and his team for advice.

After having to wear glasses all the time and my eyes slowly getting worse every year I decided to take a leap of faith and I just recently had a lens replacement in my eye by Jesse. Jesse was really nice and very professional throughout the whole procedure from start to finish and now I have great vision and most importantly I don't have to where glasses anymore. Thank you Jesse

I’d just like to start by saying I had been delaying an inevitable surgery on my eyes called Crosslinking for a couple of years through fear of (or lack of) aftercare. I initially met Mr Panthagani through Hinchingbrooke Hospital and found his private practice online following such a positive experience.. Understanding of my apprehension Mr Panthagani rang me and discussed the process in depth answering my particularly obscure questions with patience and showed a lot of compassion. His quiet confidence really put me at ease and I felt he was really looking at what would be best for my specific circumstances/eye disease. I’ve seen a few Opthalmic Consultants over the years and I really feel a select few were of such patient focused care. Throughout the procedure I felt really calm, each step explained (as per my preference) and patient care exceeded expectation. From point of enquiry right through into aftercare. Mr Panthagani and the team truly do go the extra mile. Special thanks to his Practice Manager Niamh who checked in on me before and following the operation (even over a weekend) and has been absolutely brilliant. Honestly I would recommend your team to anyone and if I need the right eye doing I know I will 100% return.

I recently had a cataract operation on both eyes by Mr Panthagani in Leicester. I wasn't particularly looking forward to the proceedure but throughout the operation I felt comfortable and I was advised at all times what was happening. This was very reassuring. Now it has been five weeks since the operation, I am extremely happy with the result. Very many thanks to the skill and care given. Robert.

Brilliant experience, Mr Panthagani was very thorough and explained everything as we went along. He liaised with my Optician to ensure that the lenses I had put in were the correct prescription. The Op itself was painless if a little odd (to me) and the care I received second to none. My sight was restored the next morning and one week later is 20/20. I am absolutely delighted

Had 2 cataract surgeries by Mr Panthagani at glendonwood hospital. Initially i was anxious about having this surgery but i was put at ease after having a consultation with Mr Panthagani . His manner is calm and reassuring , he answered all my questions in a manner i could understand. He told me the predicated outcome of both surgeries and what to expect . The day of surgery went smoothly . I felt safe and cared for by the team . The environment was clean and friendly . I found the whole experience positive. After care was followed up by nurse and Mr Panthagani and contact numbers given for worries or concerns. I could not fault the care given to me by Mr Panthagani. I can now return to driving and reading thanks to the care provided by him and his excellent team . Lynda mccardie

I was very fortunate to be referred to Mr Panthagani.His friendly professional manner put me as ease immediately. He answered all my questions and explained every detail of the procedure. I felt so confident in Mr Panthagani's care that I decided to have both cataracts removed at the same time. It is now 12 days since my operation and I am delighted with the result and I would be happy to recommend Mr Panthagani and his team. They are a very caring group.

Two of my good friends recommended Mr Panthagani to me after they had cataract surgery. I was therefore pleased when I received an appointment with him for my cataract surgery. As soon as I met Mr Panthagani I knew I was in very safe hands. After very careful examination of my eyes he explained clearly and carefully what result I could realistically expect. My first cataract surgery was carried out three weeks ago and his whole team were all extremely professional. I look forward to having my eyes tested in a couple of weeks and also to my other cataract being dealt with. Thankyou to you and your team for your patience and kindness to me.

I have had both eyes treated by Mr Panthagani and his team and would like to say how very pleased I have been by the very kind and considerate and skilful treatment received Can’t thank Mr Panthagani enough

I was extreme happy with the cataract operations I had on both my eyes that Mr Panthagani performed. He kept me fully informed at all times, before, during the procedure and after. Easy to talk to, polite and reassuring at all times. Happy with the outcomes of both ops and the improvement to my sight.

Amazing! I cannot fault the care I have recieved from Mr Panthagani and his team. From the intial consultation, which provided all the information I needed to make an informed decision, through to the surgery and aftercare, the profesionalism, high quality service and care I recieved was truely excellent. Thankyou.

I would highly recommend Mr Panthagani and his team following my recent successful cataract surgery. From the first consultation I was treated with extreme care and professionalism. All options were explained thoroughly and extensive tests undertaken to achieve the best possible outcome for me.

Very good experience. Explained everything clearly, very professional. Very pleased with results of eye surgery.

I am writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional care I received from Dr. Panthagani during my cataract surgery experience. After conducting extensive research, I chose to approach Dr. Panthagani for cataract surgery in both of my eyes, and I am so grateful that I did. The consultation prior to my surgery in May was not only reassuring but incredibly detailed. Dr. Panthagani took the time to thoroughly explain my astigmatism and the various options available to me. I left that initial consultation feeling relaxed and confident, knowing that I was in the hands of an extremely professional surgeon who is also a genuinely caring and kind individual. His dedication to ensuring I understood the procedure and the post-operative healing process truly set my mind at ease. The surgeries themselves were remarkable—both completely pain-free and taking only about 20 minutes each. I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth and efficient the entire process was, with the second operation just a week later. I would also like to commend Dr. Panthagani’s outstanding team at Glendon Wood Hospital in Northampton. Their professionalism, kindness, and even a touch of humour helped to ease my nerves significantly and had a remarkable effect on lowering my blood pressure! It is evident that they share Dr. Panthagani’s commitment to providing compassionate care. My recovery has been flawless, with minimal discomfort—particularly in managing the eye drops four times a day, washing my eyes as instructed, and using the eye pads for sleep at night. During my final consultation with Dr. Panthagani on May 22nd, I was pleased to hear that my healing process is progressing well, and I was encouraged to continue seeing my optician. I feel incredibly fortunate to live in the UK, where we have access to some of the best surgeons and doctors in the world, who are highly trained and dedicated to their craft. What truly sets Dr. Panthagani and his team apart is their exceptional communication, reassurance, and genuine care for patients before, during, and after procedures. Their humanity, kindness, and unwavering commitment to excellence make a remarkable difference in the patient experience. In summary, Dr. Panthagani is not only a truly gifted surgeon but also a compassionate individual who embodies the very best of medical care. I cannot thank him enough for the positive impact he has had on my life. Joe Rainert

The treatment I received from Mr Panthagani was really exceptional He was caring, put me at ease he explained the procedure so I had nothing to worry about He is just simply the best Regards Gloria Patrick
