Mr Sameer Trikha is an internationally known Ophthalmic Surgeon based in London, United Kingdom. He is currently a substantive NHS Consultant at King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, and consults privately at 10 Harley Street and also 119 Harley Street, Marylebone London. He specialises in complex glaucoma care, and cataract, as well as consulting for general Ophthalmology.
Ophthalmology is not simply a job for me – it’s my passion. I feel incredibly privileged to have trained in both Medicine and specialised in Ophthalmic Surgery at some of the best institutions in the world, and now apply the most up-to-date techniques in the care for my patients. I like to work in a long term partnership with my patients, to provide world class quality of care, every time. I am passionate about surgical education, and have trained surgeons from Australia, Switzerland, France, India and South Africa – all of whom have gone on to obtain Consultant positions in their home countries.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my young family, as well as running, badminton and cricket.
