Testimonials

Our clients vary from local families, to large corporate businesses. We also attract many people from across the North of England and Southern Scotland for specialist services such as Orthokeratology and Keratoconus management.

Why would people travel so far to see us when they have an Optician or Optometrist so near to their homes already? The following testimonials will explain this better than we can:

John's level of expertise is second to none and he delivers this in a very relaxed yet professional setting. John is a family man and therefore can identify how to make an eye test fun and enjoyable for children.”

Clinical Care:

September 2009
"My sight was saved in 2004, during a routine eye examination at Querido & Davidson. I had no awareness or symptoms of a problem at all but a potentially blinding retinal detachment was picked up! My routine eye exam prevented a permanent vision loss in my left eye."
Jayne Davison, Walkergate

April 2010
"I have been attending Querido and Davidson for 5/6 years on recommendation and advice from my brother, who is a local GP. Most recently, I have been struggling with headaches and painful eyes and presumed it all related to a deterioration in my eye sight now I am in my 40's. John undertook a complete and thorough eye examination and I was relieved to find no associated eye problems. What particularly pleased me was the advice he did give, that I should be referred to a physio. He believed the headaches were the result of a sedentary computer-based role at work, and were caused by referred pain from my neck and back. Four weeks and a number of phyio appointments later, his advice seemed absolutely accurate, the physio is working and the headaches and pain behind my eyes is all but gone."
Adrian Kirk (Morpeth).
