Anca Marinescu General Ophthalmologist
Why consult a general ophthalmologist?
A good general ophthalmologist (eye doctor) offers comprehensive ophthalmic knowledge and deep experience.
I have a busy practice in a major NHS London eye hospital diagnosing and managing a wide range of eye conditions with the latest treatments.
Many patients are referred to me when their condition is unclear as I have more than 25 years experience as an ophthalmologist in the UK.
I offer comprehensive care for eye conditions ranging from blepharitis to complex neurological disorders.
I can sometimes see patients at short notice. My Harley Street practice has good public transport connections to Canary Wharf, and most of London via Bond Street and Oxford Circus stations.
So if you are not sure what is wrong with your eyes I'm the best person to consult. Many cases may turn out to be minor and I can offer treatment to resolve the problem before it becomes more serious.
If I identify the need for more specialised intervention I can refer you directly to some of the best consultant ophthalmologists, appropriate to your condition, so you save time accessing the highest quality treatment possible.
I'm a recognised consultant with many major health insurers including BUPA, AXA, AVIVA, WPA, CIGNA, Vitality, Healix, Ocuplan and Aetna Global.
