After my local hospital advised they could not help with my chronic back problems I was referred to Guys Hospital. Initially I saw Pain Clinic but after months of working with them and no improvement the pain clinic doctor took my MRI to numerous surgeons and only Mr Fakouri was willing to take on my case as the damage was so severe and very near to a main artery and was potentially quite risky. I did have to lose a substantial amount of weight before he would carry out the surgery but this was to ensure the best possible outcome of the surgery which he explained to me in detail. He advised me of all possible side effects and in July 2021 he carried out ALIF and XLIF and 5 levels of spinal fusion. Although I currently have residual pain(having been in pain since 2004) I avoided all of the other possible side effects and my scarring is very minimal. I cannot thank My Fakouri enough for taking a chance on me and carrying out the surgery as I was in danger of becoming unable to walk,
