Zahrah Haleem
Optometrist
Specsavers feels like a family. From weekends as an optical assistant to my pre-reg, their support has been constant. My director, supervisor and colleagues offered wisdom, advice and even chocolate! Their support is invaluable, shaping me into a better optometrist and person.
Karishma Patel

Working at Specsavers has given me the opportunity to enrol in the Pathway to Partnership programme, which is incredibly exciting. The prospect of having my own business feels very rewarding and motivates me to keep pushing forward.
Aman Patel

Specsavers feels like a second home. They supported me through my move, pre-reg and exams, which boosted my confidence. Even after qualifying, their continued support and funding for further studies make me feel really appreciated.
