Went for ear check and wax clear, was managed by Aqsa who was personable, friendly but most importantly professional and competent. Aqsa showed me before and after on the screen to illustrate how intervention was certainly required. All done in no more than 20 mins, btw used suction method. Recommended

I visited the hearing centre yesterday. From being greeted to my exit of the store I found the staff to be alert, friendly and very eager to assist. The audiologist in particular was so professional, knowledgeable, friendly and accomodating. I cannot thank her enough for the assistance and advice that she provided. Im sure I will be returning for the products and will recommend her to friends and relatives. Thank you

Amazing service!! Went in store with an issue with my glasses ( not purchased from them) and they fixed them for me on the spot. So friendly, nothing too much trouble for them. Now looking into getting my next pair of glasses from them. X

Had a buildup of ear wax in both ears that was severely impacting my hearing, Aqsa at City specs sorted it for me, and my hearing is now back to normal. Great service and some good advise all in a friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend City Specs if you have hearing problems.

A first class experience from start to finish by Zeeshan at City Specs. Advice & support given, with choosing frames & lens options & discussed at length to ensure they met my needs, without any compulsion to purchase.
Measurements on my varifocals were spot on with my new prescription glasses, unlike most other opticians where I often have to revisit several times for amendments to the graduations.
Really love my Bvlgari day specs & Balenciaga sunglasses. There are designer brands to be found in their sale section :) which are fabulous bargain options. City Specs have a really an excellent selection of frames, different to others Ive seen elsewhere. I have no hesitation in recommending both City Specs & Zeeshan to others. Many thanks.

I had my ears cleaned. The booking website was easy to use and they had weekend appointments which is really good. The level of service I received at my appointment was really good and the treatment painless. Would definitely recommend.

My mother was experiencing degraded hearing issues which were interfering with her daily quality of life, so Aqsa was contacted to see if she could help.
Aqsa was very responsive to my communications and we were soon discussing options to look into the problem. It did not take long to organise an assessment, which was reassuring in itself. Once more Aqsa showed how professional and caring she is, clearly understanding the specific needs of my mother.
When the assessment took place Aqsa checked the hearing aids, which needed a little maintenance, and that was supplemented by additional hearing tests and adjustments to the overall setup. All of this was carried out in a professional, caring and friendly manner. At the end of the assessment my mother's overall hearing experience was improved, and she is most grateful for the care given, as am I. Great audiologist!

What a lifesaver
My granddaughter rang me on Tuesday and said that she needed her glasses sorting out before the start of college on Friday, but she wanted to keep her own frames, which are now discontinued. We went to her usual glasses provider and there was no way that they could help. It would be at least a week and a half for them to sort them out, and that would leave my granddaughter without glasses for the first week of college, and that couldnt happen.
Popped into City Specs on the off chance that they could help, and help they did.
I spoke to Wayne and Zee and they were fabulous. They gave my granddaughter an eye test immediately and said that if they had the lens in stock they could do it there and then. If not then they would order them in and put them into her frames for Thursday. I couldnt believe our luck. I have been back today and the new lens have been fitted into her frames and an anti-glare coating put on the new lens . I cannot thank CitySpecs enough, they are really professional and friendly and really good at what they do . Thank you Wayne and Zee and thee rest of the CitySpecs staff

Got my first ever pair of glasses from CitySpecs. From the comprehensive eye examination, the detailed results, given to me by the optician, and then choosing and fitting of frames, it was a faultless experience. Yong and Mel were kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend using them and will be going back again.

Superb service! The staff went above and beyond. From greeting me, Mel looked after me and booked me in with an Optometrist who had time to answer any questions I had. He explained every point of the testing process and really cared about my eye health. Mel then helped me to choose some frames that suited my face, which I highly appreciate as it's hard to tell which look best on yourself. The knowledge everyone has is outstanding.
Far beyond the high street chain opticians. If you're looking for excellent customer service then look no further! They also have an incredible selection of frames and lenses. I will definitely be returning. Thank you!
