Mr B Roy Chaudhary 2017-10-19 Person 5 5 0

Referred to Mr Chaudhary following eight months of debilitating and excrutiating sciatica, where I was unable to stand upright due to pain. I was examined thoroughly and it was arranged for further scans to be performed. All the while, Mr Chaudhary explained his findings, and the possible procedures that could take place. It resulted in L5/S1 decompression and discectomy, performed by keyhole surgery. I arrived at the hospital at 6am, with my surgery performed later in the day. My aftercare was superb, and the following day was on my feet, standing more errect than I had in many months! The physiotherapist visited me pm to challenge me on several tasks, all which I carried out successfully. After assuring that I had a lift home, and that I wouldn't be on my own when I arrived there, I was discharged that day, some 26 hours after surgery! I cannot praise Mr Chaudhary enough. He is pleasant and not brusque. He explains in great detail the diagnosis, prognosis and even the possible problems that may occur. The keyhole procedure is innovative and, in my case, totally successful. This method of surgery reduces use of NHS resources by so much, taking bed usage from maybe a week to 36 hours, together with the nursing and aftercare. I think it is wonderful and am totally a fan.
