Mr Chaudhary was selected by the Neurosurgery Senior Review team to carry out my Left C6 / C7 open foramintomy and Left C7 nerve route decompression because of his immensely impressive skills and a reputation built in recent years of being an outstanding neurosurgeon. Mr Chaudhary is an outstanding communicator. I had a pre-op assessment and a supplementary meeting where he could not have been more clear and open about the operation itself, the likely outcome and the risks. He was extremely friendly and put me at ease throughout both meetings. His willingness to go into whatever detail I wished to discuss was so much appreciated and I was totally clear on every aspect of the procedure and likely outcome. The surgery took place on the 1st, December and my brief discussion with Mr Chaudhary on the day of the surgery was so reassuring as was the discussion with the anaesthetist. I could have been treated better. My treatment during my stay at The Nuffield was fine. Although I suffered sever pain for three weeks following the surgery I am pleased to say that there has been a noticeable improvement in my neck and shoulder areas. I was clearly advised that there would be significant pain postop. As of this week the postoperative pain has vanished completely. Today 27th, January 2021, I received a telephone call from Mr Chaudhary. He was extremely keen to understand how I was feeling and how I felt the operation had helped with my severe neck and shoulder pain. I explained that the scar was virtually impossible to see. He and I agreed that the surgery had been successful and once again his explanation and overview was outstanding. I cannot thank Mr Chaudhary enough for performing this surgery, also it is remarkable how quickly he made the decision to carry out the operation. Previously I had been waiting for almost three years for any action to be taken.
