John Flynn Opticians in Beeston

I visited John Flynn Opticians in Beeston today. I am a very anxious person and couldn’t of asked for a kinder and more helpful receptionist. She really did go above and beyond to help me. Dr Janjua took time to chat with me and make me feel at ease before starting the consultation and then after explained his findings to me in a way that I could understand and referred me to the relevant people to continue my care. He had extensive knowledge in the issues I face and I am so happy I chose to go with them! Thank you to all the team!

A great service

I recently had my first consultation at this pray and felt that it was thorough and professional. The optician and the rest of the team were all friendly and helpful. The examination was carefully conducted and my new varifocals are a big improvement on my previous ones. Follow up appointments for retinal scan and AMD risk screening were reassuring. I was given lots of information at every stage.

Dr Janjua is exceptional

Friendly caring staff and the optometrist, Dr Janjua is brilliant. He listens, takes all the time needed to find the exact prescription for your eyes and then talks you through the results, leaving you feeling confident your lenses will be perfect.

Excellent opticians, particularly for light therapy for AMD

All members of staff have been kind, caring and helpful during my courses of treatment for AMD. Eye examinations have been thorough and helpful advice always available. It has been worth battling through the traffic for an hour and a half to reach this opticians, offering treatment not available in many places. Many thanks to all.

Old fashioned service

Appointment on time
Gave me confidence with complicated eye problems and pointed me in the right direction for the right specialist to hopefully sort out my problems.
Will use as my optician from now.
Would recommend the practice of Flynns
