Mr B Roy Chaudhary

Mr Chaudhary explained fully to me my condition prior to my urgent operation. He took me by complete surprise when he told me and showed me what I had wrong and I had no previous idea how severe. And urgent surgery was required. He put me totally at ease over the surgery and I can honestly say that I have recovered very well from the surgery he performed and am glad to say I was discharged this week following my final consultation with him. His manner and how he explained the procedure and what the after effects would be and how long my recovery would be was very accurate ,and because of that knowledge my confidence in him grew. It was an absolute pleasure meeting him, despite the circumstances and procedures he was going to put me through, anyone else who ever needs his expertise will have no worries at all, truly excellent, thank you.

Mr Chaudhary spent quality time during my appointments and explained thoroughly what the situation was. Following an MRI he explained the results in a clear and concise manner without rushing, and this included some complexity due to previous surgery. I liked his approach to outcomes and he considered my case history, evidence and explained the risk and benefits of the options in front of me. Together we were able to agree next steps, which in my case is not to have further surgery at this stage. Instead I’m following up with neurology appointments having received his written summary that I was able to pass on. Many thanks.

Mr Chauhdary is a considerate, expertly skilful surgeon whose approach is always patient-centred. Unlike the stereotypical neurosurgeon, he has the rare quality of being a superb listener and communicator. He made me feel immediately comfortable and have confidence in him. He explained the procedure to me in details and the reasons he chose to do it. He has excellent communicative skills. I am delighted with the result of the surgery. It’s now two weeks post op, and I’m 90% symptom-free. I am confident that I’ll be fully recovered by the time of the review appointment at 6 weeks.

I haven't got enough words to say thank you for Mr B. Roy Chaudhary and his team for my cervical surgery in January 2024! I am 54 years old woman from Bulgaria, and I apologies for my not so good expression in English! I was diagnosed with sever myelopathy and cord signal change from C3-4 to C5-6 with multilevel canal stenosis and grade 1 spondylolisthesis. Mr Chaudhary and his team did a great job through the posterior instrumented fusion from C2 to C6, plus C4 and C5 laminectomy. When I first met Mr. Chaudhary, he explained to me in very kind, friendly and professional manner what to expect from the surgery, and the recovery process. He made me feel like I know him for long time. In my point of view, he is an amazing person! Before my surgery, my symptoms were : Severe arthritic neck pain and stiffness ; hands weaknesses, numbness and dropping objects. I couldn't twist my hands for washing my back in the bathroom. Also legs stiffness(specially knees, ankles and right hip) ;pain and weakness; difficulties to walk in distance; balance problems; difficulties of climb stairs;difficulties to make squats and stand up ;body tremor; bladder control issue. I have to mention, that I also have osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. Now, 16 months after my surgery, I am able to wash my back on my own. The arthritic neck pain that I had for years, is gone. Instead, I have some neck movement restrictions, but not so bad. For example, when I have to turn backwards, I need to use all of my body. Other good thing is, that my bladder function is almost normal now. I still lose balance when I walk, but I think, not as much as before. Unfortunately, the rest of my symptoms still remain. Because of being ignorant, and very afraid of spine surgery, I accepted the operation very late. Nevertheless, going through this operation was one of the best decisions in my life,and at least I won't be in the wheelchair. Therefore, I would like to advise everyone with the same problems. Go for a surgery as soon as possible! Don't be afraid! Because if you have a myelopathy, and your bones hurt your spine cord, an operation is the only solution. Think of this disease as an infrastructure problem. A new road needs to be built over your spine to make room for your compressed spinal cord. And if you can, go to Mr B. Roy Chaudhary! This doctor is very talented neurosurgeon with two golden hands! My God bless him! P. S. Thank you very much for Alison West for her help and support!

Polite, caring, explained everything in great detail, and made me feel totally at ease. Listened to my point of view regarding my complaint, explained the options available without trying to push his point of view, and together a way forward was decided upon. Should the problem get worse, then an alternative way forward was explained. Mr Chaudhary also commented on another problem I am currently experiencing, and his comments on this matter may certainly prove helpful in bringing about a conclusion. I can certainly say that Mr Chaudhary is one of the best consultants I have ever had dealings with.
