About Us
Needing to consider eye surgery can be stressful. The team a Lakeside understand that successful results start with ensuring their patients feel safe and confident in their care.
Lakeside director, Dr. Justin Friebel, and the team take the time getting to know each of their patients and the issues affecting their eye health - creating a realistic treatment plan, and building a relationship of trust and confidence to ensure they approach surgery knowing they are in the best hands.
Lakeside offices in Albert Road, South Melbourne are easily accessible via car, bike/pedestrian paths and tram (with connecting trains from Melbourne).
Every care has been taken to provide patients a relaxing and calm environment, with the benefit of the latest information technology and medical equipment. Patients' comfort and care drives our approach at Lakeside.
