The care I recently received from Richard Mannion has been outstanding. He is a remarkably caring and highly skilled Consultant. I was fortunate to have been his patient in the treatment of a sizeable arachnoid cyst. From my first Consultation, Mr Mannion listened, was compassionate, courteous, calm and very well informed. He explained using scan images how my arachnoid cyst was indenting and displacing the medulla and cerebellum in my brain, making sense of the rather varied symptoms I was experiencing. A follow-on MRI provided scan evidence my cyst was rapidly growing and required neurosurgery. Mr Mannion explained with patience and clarity why surgery was required and discussed in detail how this would be performed. The surgical work Mr Mannion does to improve the lives of his patients is quite extraordinary, yet he is approachable and humble. It can be frightening and overwhelming to face brain surgery, yet I felt completely confident in Mr Mannion’s calm expertise and skill, and grateful that he would be my surgeon. My procedure was very successful, my symptoms having largely disappeared. I am so grateful to Mr Mannion and his team. I couldn’t have asked for better care.
