What a day. What a journey.
In October this year, we welcomed 22 Optometrists to our CPD event at VISIO Health.
At our launch event in October 2024, we only had 4.
That growth alone tells a story: the word is spreading.
Many Optoms told us they had no idea VISIO was here, and were genuinely impressed by the facilities, the atmosphere, and the heart behind what we’re building. That feedback means everything to us.
📚 12 CPD points were accredited and successfully claimed by all attendees.
This really does feel like just the beginning. One day, we hope to fill a room with 100 Optoms, all connecting with our family values and our deeply patient-led approach to care.
🙏 To the optometrists who have been referring patients since the event - thank you. Your patients have been exceptionally well looked after, and the feedback has been wonderful.
Some moments really stayed with us:
- Same-day YAG capsulotomies booked, avoiding NHS waits of up to 6 months. Restoring vision in 15 mins
- Cataract consultations followed by surgery just 6 days later
This is why we do what we do. Your health is our vision.
☕🍽️ And of course — great learning deserves great hospitality.
