Every Confidence
Nick Maycock performed the cataract surgery on both my eyes, the first in January, the second in April.
On both occasions I was put completely at ease by Nick as he explained the procedure both prior to and during the surgery. I had every confidence in ability. I think it is also worth noting that the team supporting Nick on both occasions appeared relaxed and happy to be working with him.
Helpful Explanation
Mr Maycock explained the procedure carefully beforehand and allayed my concerns about taking a flight two weeks after the operation.
Mr Maycock helped me to direct my eye in a direction that made the operation simpler. The operation went very smoothly and I am pleased with the result.
Cataract surgery on both eyes.
Mr Maycock carried out my two cataract operations. On both occasions he was welcoming, very easy to talk to and very happy to answer questions both about the surgery and the recovery period. I felt very much at ease with him carrying out the surgery.
Before and during surgery he explained what was happening and showed every concern for my comfort. I am very pleased with how the surgery went, with the results and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.
Excellent surgical experience.
Having cataract surgery is an common, but scary prospect. Nick Maycock recently removed cataracts from both my eyes. I was impressed with his detailed explanations, concerning what I would experience in theatre, before the procedure. These and his comments during the surgery were very reassuring.
My experience
The whole experience was made better because I was told what was happening at all times and the operation was painless.
Un grand merci! Thank you!
I have had a cataract operation on both eyes. Both operations were performed by Mr Nick Maycock (18 January and 21 February). Mr Maycock was pleasant and approachable, as well as very patient in answering questions. He carefully explained the procedure beforehand and also explained, during the operation, what was happening. I was very anxious, but his explanations helped me to relax.
In fact, everyone at SpaMedica was very kind and friendly.
After each operation Mr Maycock said that "all had gone well", which was really reassuring.
Just two days after the second operation I can see so well - better than I have been able to do for many years! And the colours of everything seem so bright. The operations were totally painless and I have had no pain at all in my eyes.
I am very grateful to Mr Nick Maycock.

Nick Maycock…First Class. Shirley Davies
I had my first Cataract operation with Nick Maycock was in October 2022 and my second in February 2023.
I was very nervous before the first operation however Nick put me at ease, explained everything and I was very pleased. I have only just had the second operation but it appears to have gone well and I am happy to recommend Nick. Shirley Davies
Thank You.
Despite a long list Nick Maycock treated me as a patient, not a number and took time to explain everything in a calm, constructive manner. Throughout the procedure he explained what was happening and was most re-assuring. A professional surgeon with a good team . Thank you.

Cataracts surgery
I have had two cataract operations, both performed by Mr Maycock. I was very anxious about the operations beforehand but was immediately put at ease by his kind, re-assuring and professional manner prior to during and after the operations.
Both operations have proved to be very successful as I can now see very well and have had no complications or discomfort after the surgery.
I have no hesitation to thoroughly recommend Mr Maycock.
Had both cataracts done by Mr Maycock…
Had both cataracts done by Mr Maycock his calming and lovely manner talking you through the procedure made this reassuring for someone that has White Coat Syndrome. I am more than happy to recommend Mr Maycock and SpaMedica to anyone seeking cataract surgery 🙏
Cataract Surgery
Mr Maycock has now replaced the cataracts in both my eyes. He was, on each occasion, highly professional, extremely thorough and very approachable. I am a retired paediatrician, but it was very helpful that he carefully explained the procedure, encouraged questions about any concerns I might have and was kind and polite. He calmly commented and gently reassured me throughout the surgery.
I have waited until my second week after the second operation to see how my eye has progressed. All is going well. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Maycock to anyone wishing to have this operation.
Excellent
Nick did my second cataract yesterday and all went well, he was very calming and talked me through the surgery, cannot thank him enough as my eyesight is so good now.
Cataract surgery
I consider myself fortunate to have had Nick perform both my cataract operations. He took great care to keep me comfortable, calm and informed at every stage of the procedure. His expertise has given me a successful result and I can highly recommend him.
second cataract
At a time when the NHS is suffering from so many problems, I could not recommend Spamedica and Nick Maycock more highly. The system was efficient and faultless. Mr Maycock was gentle, calm and explained the procedure and answered questions kindly. While doing the procedure he explained what was happening and put me at ease. Altogether an excellent experience, thank you!
Cataract Operations
Had my second cataract operation with Nick Maycock today. Obviously, one feels a little apprehensive, but Nick has a very kind and professional approach that helps put you at ease. First eye transformed my vision, second eye still has shield on, but I can already see that all is good.
Amazing!
I have had two cataract operations with Nick. At all times I was treated with the utmost care and information. The results were truly amazing. Colours have never been so bright!
I have no reservation in recommending him, and urge anyone seeking this operation to let him attend them
Second time around
This is the second eye that Mr Maycock has performed cataract surgery on, at all times he was very kind and thoughtful of my comfort and only too happy to answer any questions. My whole experience has been very positive and I am very happy to recommend Mr Maycock and the SpaMedica team.
Totally happy with the procedure and result
Mr Maycock and the team were meticulous in ensuring that I understood what was happening at each stage in the procedure. All went well and at no time did I experience any discomfort. I recommend Mr Maycock and Spa Medica to anyone needing cataract treatment.
