Miss Iona Collins Spinal Surgeon 2019-06-30 Person 5 5 0

The level of care and consideration given to me by this surgeon has been outstanding. She immediately identified the issue with my spine, recognizing the level of pain I was experiencing and explained the possibility of incontinence and even paralysis if it was not dealt with promptly. She was reassuring about the possibility of a complete recovery following surgery and ensured she got me onto her list asap. Miss Collins visited me in the ward first thing in the morning and again last thing in the evening after the operation. She was positive and reassuring whilst not neglecting to point out that there was still an element of risk as in all such procedures. Having been very debilitated and restricted with sciatica I found immediate relief following the procedure and have been able to resume my usual lifestyle within a couple of weeks. I am extremely grateful to her for all she has done and the urgency it was dealt with.
