My wife and I have been struggling with our eyesight that has deteriorated to a serious extend.
We are unfortunately not members of any medical aid and thus we were advised to contact the Modimolle Clinic.
With an uneasy attitude we ventured into the unknown. On arrival we were greeted with respect and told to complete the necessary forms.
After a lengthy waiting period at the clinic, we were ushered to the optometrist, Essie Mashela. She was really charming and attentive in a professional manner.
She conducted and completed our eye tests, and then advised us to see an eye specialist.
We thought this is where we are going to get stuck, but low and behold, she arranged a referral to consult eye specialist, Fritz Stegman, at the FH Odendaal Hospital.
We want to convey out heartfelt gratitude towards Essie Mashela. Your attentiveness and endearing attitude towards us had set our minds at ease.
You are truly professional and an asset to our country.
