Re: Who is the best Surgeon for BPES both plastic and muscle related

[Guest guest]

It'd be pretty difficult to compare particular surgeons across the

world, and probably somewhat politically incorrect to name them.

However, there are what one might call 'centres of excellence' in this

type of surgery, where the surgeons' skills are in general very high.

For example, many people go to Moorfields hospital in London for their

BPES tinkering, and many surgeons from around the world go there to

study. I vaguely recall some other folks on this forum who live/d in the

Middle East (also Dubai maybe? Can't remember) went to Moorfields

relatively recently. And I know the folks at the Sydney Eye Hospital can

also do a good job. Some folks on this forum have mentioned that good

results can be obtained in Korea, but I'm not sure exactly where.

One thing I did recently was to do a Google search for recent ophthalmic

surgery-related conventions " nearby " , and look at the agenda, to see

which dudes are presenting papers in this field these days and

therefore, presumably, doing research at the top of their field. I did a

similar online search some years back, to see who was publishing related

papers in medical journals, and found an excellent local occuloplastic

dude (an Aussie who'd been at Moorfields as a matter o' fact).

I have been researching this question since my daughter was born

with \\\bleph 3 years ago and yes Moorfields eye hospital has an

excellent reputation for being the best in the world and the leading

eye surgeon there of 40 years + standing is Mr Collin he has

probably had the most experience and has written books on Bleph

surgery and trained most of the other leading plastic eye surgeons

in uk ie Mr Joshi

MR COLLIN STILL OPERATES AT MOORFIELDS BUT SINCE SINCE LAST YEAR

ONLY PRIVATELY . HIS PRIVATE OFFICE IS 67 HARLEY STREET

London and his fee is very reasonable
