NIXON and Shaw have been shortlisted for a national optician award in the Covid Heroes category.
They will find out if they have won on the 2nd of December at a gala event in London. The award has been established to recognise opticians that went the extra mile to put the well-being of patients, colleagues and the public uppermost during the Covid pandemic and after.
Martin Bull, one of the directors and optometrists at Nixon & Shaw said, “It is our mission to deliver the best possible patient experience and the last 18 months have challenged that.
“Our staff’s passion to deliver great customer service has been superb and they have excelled in every way to lots of changes and challenges. This is a great achievement for the team and fingers crossed, we scoop the award.
“Our optical technology, like our OCT machine, enabled us to offer many patients, old and new, a reassurance that if they had an eye care need during the lockdowns over the last 18 months, we were there for their needs.”
The national optician awards are run by Optician magazine and have been running for 25 years.
Nixon and Shaw are independent opticians based at 6 High Street, Melksham. Visit www.nixonshaw.co.uk or call 01225 703218; they also have practices in Bradford-on-Avon and Devizes.
