I returned to Malta to resettle in Gozo after 54 years in the UK. I am now recovering from a second cataract operation carried out by Franco Mercieca who works at weekends and performs about 60 eye operations.
Unfortunately, due to my advanced age I have had a number of hospital visits in my life but the work that Mercieca does is beyond the call of duty and is an example of generosity and benevolence to his fellow citizens.
As a doctor/politician, perhaps other elected members of Parliament from both parties should note and emulate Mercieca rather than criticise him and the nation would be a much better place in which to live.
