Uveitis Treatment
(inflammatory eye disorders)

In October 2001, I had an eye injury while living in Australia. The injury was a blunt trauma and since that time I’ve obviously seen many eye specialists in Australia and also in the United States & Canada when I had my first case of Herpes Simplex in that same eye. I came into your hospital and was seen by you on Thursday 25th of January for a check which was my first since October 2005, in Sydney, Australia. I would really like to thank you for your excellent professional service. You are well aware how important a condition like mine is to me and I really want to thank you for your patience and professional support you delivered to me. As it was over a few months since my last check up, I was a bit apprehensive & then a little disappointed I could not remember some of the technical jargon surrounding my eye parts and my condition. I am very thankful to you for taking the time to honestly answer my many (many) questions and help me understand my condition and future options. As I’ve mentioned previously I have seen countless specialist over the past 5 years. I really believe you are an asset to your hospital and profession. I cannot believe how busy you were that day, yet so proficient. Thank you again for your help and fantastic personal touch.

For Ms Ranjit Sandhu I was recently diagnosed with cataracts which necessitated surgery. Fortunately I contacted The consultancy practice of Ms Sandhu. I spoke with her practice secretary Phillips Bailey who subsequently coordinated my whole journey brilliantly, with care and attention to detail which made my experience seamless. From the very first time I met Ms Sandu I knew I was in the hands of a total professional from the pre operation consultantancy to the actual surgery and post surgery follow up. Ms Sandhu put me at ease, explained the procedure and expected outcomes very clearly. During the surgery Miss Sandhu really did reassure me during the whole procedure, this helped me to remain relaxed. The cataract surgery was a complete success and cannot thank Miss Sandhu enough for her amazing care and attention. I certainly highly recommend Ms Sandhu as an outstanding eye consultant for cataract procedures. Thank you. David R MEAGER Studham A very happy patient of Ms Sandhu.

I am 73 years old and have worn glasses for over 25 years. I became increasingly frustrated with my glasses misting over especially when entering a shop with a warmer temperature whilst wearing my mask. My optician had informed me that I had mild to medium cataracts and I had become increasingly aware of glare from oncoming headlights when driving at night. A friend recommended Ms Ranjit Sandhu. During the consultation which I arranged Ms Ranjit Sandhu fully explained the risks and the benefits of cataract surgery and how the procedure would be conducted. I was impressed with Ms Sandhu’s explanation, her honesty and ability to fully answer my questions which provided trust and confidence. It was mutually agreed that I would have both eye procedures undertaken at the same time and that I would have multifocal lens implants. On the day of my hospital appointment I was naturally a little nervous. Ms Sandhu and her team of nurses were extremely reassuring throughout my time in the operating theatre. Ms Sandhu gently explained each step that she was about to perform which encouraged and reassured me.

In August 2023, and September 2023, I had cataracts removed from Left and Right eyes. I am truly grateful to Ms Ranjit Sandhu: due to her skill and expertise – I can see so much better. Her skill and care is phenomenal and the result is amazing. I am also very grateful to Denise for organising all my appointments and making sure that everything was running smoothly – Thank you Denise. I was nervous about the procedure but I was made to feel welcome at Spire Hospital Harpenden by a professional team of nurses. Ms Ranjit Sandhu completed both operations for my cataracts and I could not recommend her more highly.

Gong through each stage of Cataract Surgeries for both eyes separated by two and a half weeks, I explain my experiences below. More time was needed to understand the different types of lenses available to me at my first consultation with Ms Sandhu as it all seemed a foreign language to me. So was then trying to understand the pros and cons of different types via emails with Ms Sandhu over the Christmas period. I also found it hard to find out the extra cost of lenses that are not the insurance covered standard lens. A table providing this information or guide lines would have been most helpful. My experience at both operations was excellent both with Ms Sandhu and the hospital and supporting staff. They were most efficient and caring experiences. I was grateful at both of the surgeries where Ms Sandhu was able to provide an anaesthetist although I had not requested an anaesthetic when arranging the surgeries. Having the anaesthetic took away my anxiety as to whether I could keep my eye from blinking or move in any other way and this was a great help to me. Ms Sandhu and her secretary were very quick in their responses to all my queries and concerns which was particularly helpful after the surgeries showing understanding of my worries and my keenness to get to new glasses.

I consulted Ms Ranjit Sandhu. MBBS MRCOphth MD FRXOphth Consultant Ophthalmic Surgeon (Ms Sandhu) with regard to a cataract on my left eye. I have Macular (AMD) in both eyes and the NHS consultant at the hospital had told me it would be a complete waste of time to have the cataract removed. Within five minutes of meeting Ms Sandhu, I decided that if she agreed to perform the procedure, I would have no hesitation in saying YES! The operation to remove the cataract on the left eye was a success and the additional light in the eye, although it will not improve the vision, has made a great difference. Miss Sandhu is a confident and skilful Ophthalmic surgeon who is very experienced in a range of Ophthalmic operations. I believe Ms Sandhu is ready to meet the challenges that future developments in eye procedures will bring to the world of Ophthalmology. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is enabling a library of eye scans to be amassed in the UK to improve early detection and treatment of eye disease. Stem cell implant research has resulted in the USA implanting stem cells in patients with Dry Macular disease. Current and future research and treatment of eye disease will mean the UK will need Ophthalmic surgeons of Ms Sandhu’s calibre to perform these pioneering operations.
