Independent Review (ISCAS)
At EuroEyes, we aim to resolve all concerns quickly and fairly through our own internal complaints process. However, we know that sometimes a matter may not be resolved to your satisfaction, and you may wish to have an independent review.
As part of our commitment to excellent patient care and transparency, we are now a member of the Independent Sector Complaints Adjudication Service (ISCAS). ISCAS provides an independent final stage for complaints where our internal process has been completed but the issue remains unresolved.
How the Complaints Process Works
- Stage 1 – Local Resolution
You first raise your concern with the Assistant Manager, and we will work to resolve it promptly. - Stage 2 – Internal Review
If you are not satisfied with the initial response, you can request an internal appeal to the Vice President London Region. - Stage 3 – Independent Adjudication (ISCAS)
If you still remain unhappy after both Stage 1 and Stage 2, or if 8 weeks have passed since you first raised your complaint, you may take your complaint to ISCAS for an independent review.
What ISCAS Will Do
ISCAS will independently review your complaint and all documentation relating to it. They will then provide a formal written decision. This independent review is free of charge to you.
When You Can Contact ISCAS
You can contact ISCAS to request an independent review only after you have completed our internal complaints process (Stage 1 and Stage 2), or when 8 weeks have passed since your complaint was first made.
