Total Healthcare Clinic of the Year 2024

Winning the Total Healthcare Clinic of the Year at the Private HealthCare Awards 2024 is not just an honor; it's a testament to the hard work, focus, and the support of an incredible team dedicated to changing the lives of their patients every day.

The Private Healthcare Awards are a prestigious annual event which recognises Clinical and Operational excellence within Private Healthcare facilities throughout Ireland.

Recent Success

Leading on from recent successes and achieving JCI Accreditation in November 2023, Optilase was entered into the Private Healthcare Awards. The team was thrilled to be nominated in two categories; Total Healthcare Clinic of the Year and Healthcare Facility of the Year.

Private Healthcare Awards 2024

The Awards ceremony was held on 3rd October at the Crowne Plaza in Santry with a palpable atmosphere and excitement, only further heightened by the high caliber of shortlisted industry professionals. Not only was the ceremony an opportunity to showcase and discuss the achievements Optilase have made throughout recent years, contributing to their success, but also an opportunity to engage with peers and encourage a communal goal of providing safe, excellent healthcare to all of their patients.

Winning the category of “Healthcare Facility of the Year” is a testament to Optilase’s core commitment to not only sustaining clinical and operational excellence throughout their industry, but also maintaining the integrity and values engrained into the company ethos.

Joanna Melia (Quality & Patient Safety Manager) and Reid Gardiner (Clinic Manager) attended the ceremony and were honoured to accept the award on behalf of the entire team. Without the sustained efforts and dedication to each

and every patient displayed throughout all 11 Optilase locations, it would not have been possible to achieve such a prestigious award.

The History of Optilase

Over its 22 year long history, Optilase has grown into one of the most well-respected healthcare facilities in Ireland with a continuing commitment to providing safe, affordable and accessible care for patients seeking refractive solutions to their visual concerns. While winning a prestigious award such as “Healthcare Facility of the Year” is a testament to the last two decades of achievements in the industry, it does not detract from their continuous improvement plans. While you may only see them yearly accepting awards or broadcasting their accomplishments, the team work tirelessly to sustain the values of the business on a day-to-day basis.

I had LASIK done in Dublin after a consultation and follow up in Derry. From the very start, Elizabeth in Derry put me at ease with her approach. Such a warm, helpful way about her. Surgeon Mikhall Hernandez took the time to meet me in advance to explain the process. All the staff- Iwona, Julie, Jess, Robbie (from Donegal!) and Rachael, I really appreciated the way they supported me from start to finish

I had a great LASIK experience at Optilase Carrickmines and couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr. Tom Materman is incredibly kind, attentive, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him, as well as the whole Optilase team! I didn’t feel anything during the procedure, which was much easier than I expected. My recovery has also been going really well—I’m only on day two, and everything has been smooth so far. Thank you to everyone at Optilase for the excellent care!

Life changing. From the initial consultation to the aftercare, Optilase have been friendly, professional and caring every step of the way. No worry or concern was too small for a detailed discussion and helpful response. 3 months after my phakic lens surgery my vision is as good as it ever was with glasses without the hassle. Would recommend the Optilase Carrickmines team to anyone.
