Mr Haider Zaki practices at Newmedica Barlborough as Consultant Ophthalmologist and Clinical Partner, holding weekly clinics and day‑case surgery sessions at the Midland Place facility. He specialises in oculoplastic surgery, lacrimal and orbital procedures, and advanced cataract surgery, ensuring that every patient receives expert, consultant‑led care close to home.
