Reviews
Mr subramanian showed great concern for my condition and was very clear about the benefits and risks of the planned surgery. In fact the outcome was (and is ) succesful thanks to his skill and his pioneering technique. I cannot fault my treatment and am very grateful to him.
Clear and consise throughout the entire process.
I felt that I was looked after very well and he came to see me the next morning and explained in detail , the operation performed.
I received prompt professional service and I am very pleased with the results.
Some suggestions are:
1). I was sometimes frustrated by being unable to add comment to pain values in responses to online British Spine Registry questionnaires. e.g. if I specify 7, say, I would like to have explained what I did. If I put 0 or 1 it may give the impression that I was fine yet I sat in a chair all day!
2). Further to 1), it may have been useful to inform the reader that concurrent with my L1/2 prolapse I had an untreated right inguinal hernia.
3). It may be unusual for a 76 year old to be keen to get back to exercising but I would find it very useful to be given guidance on what to do and what not to do, with a time scale. Even specifics e.g. are jogging, press-ups, planks, static bikes, light hand-weights, Zumba, rowing etc. etc. appropriate exercises for my condition? Personally these questions are important. I have to make my own judgement call and I do not want 'to get it wrong'.
I hope the above help in some way but in summary I repeat that I am very happy with the treatment and service I received - many thanks.

I was fortunate enough to be referred to Mr. Subramanian for a second opinion concerning my spinal problems. He was very helpful, thorough and informative. Unfortunately the surgery I had hoped for is not possible with my set of problems but I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him to anyone seeking expert and caring advice.
