Testimonials

“Having cataract surgery done by Dr. Shyam Makanjee was so much relief for so little effort from my side. My sight is as sharp as when I was young man; I can count the rocks on Hangklip from the Cape on a clear day. And the procedure was as painless as they say. Best thing to happen for quite a long time. Thank you!”

Isaak De Villiers

“I approached Dr. Makanjee because my eyesight was not good. The surgery was quick and painless. I will definitely recommend Dr. Makanjee to friend and family, he his very friendly and good at what he does.”

Juliana Rafferty

“I approached Dr. Makanjee, as the sight in my left eye was deteriorating. My optician recommanded him as an outstanding surgeon. The result was fantastic, and have now my both eyes treated. Dr. Makanjee and his team are highly professional and dedicated, caring and understanding – especially for somebody who has a phobia about any needles and operations. Without hesitation, I would recommend Dr. Makanjee and his team.”

Mark Gerarld Williams

“I was recommended by my optician. My physician suggested that I have my eyes checked. The results are excellent: better vision and everything appears clearer. I shall surely recommend Dr. Makanjee because he puts me at ease, he has got professional manners, he cares and he is concerned.”

Adele M Paulse

“My eyesight became blurry, especially the left eye, and reading became very difficult and rather irritating. Dr. Makanjee advised my lenses be replaced in both eyes and I thought it would be a difficult operation but the simplicity and ease and taking me through the operation all the time made me feel quite comfortable. I would recommend him with complete confidence. Thank you.”

Abdullah Cassiem Parker

“I was referred to Dr. Makanjee by my GP, Dr Ranchod, as he suspected cataracts on both my eyes.
Dr. Makanjee confirmed cataracts and recommended surgery which I subsequently underwent.
Dr. Makanjee’s pre- and post-surgery consultations were very reassuring and his bedside manners are impeccable. A very satisfied patient!! I have already recommended Dr. Makanjee to both family and friends.”

Deborah Baatjes

“In the year 2008, Dr. Makanjee discovered a tumour on my brain while examining me. Went for MRI scan and found the tumour. I found that he is excellent and the way he treats his patients amazing so much comfort and patience. And his team is very friendly and helpful; there is no doubt about that keep it up Doctor, you doing a great job.”

Marion Joan Bruyns

“I came to see Dr. Makanjee with cataracts. He operated on both my eyes and my vision is much better. I am very happy with the service that I received.”
