I was recommended Mr White by another doctor. At the time, I was working away from home and so getting in to see him in Nottingham was tricky. Mr White was extremely flexible in conducting the initial consultation over the phone and reviewing my MRI films without my having to take time off work. Once agreed a decompression discectomy at left L5/S1 was needed, he booked booked me in for a pre-operative assessment and listed me for the day after the pre-op. All in all, the amounted to about 2/3 weeks from consultation to treatment. Mr White is a very charming man who seemed down to earth and straightforward in his approach to me. He explained the procedure and it's complications and risks well and enabled me to put the risks in some context and understand probabilities. After the pre-op I had nothing but confidence I was in the best possible hands and that I was afforded the best outcomes under his care. The procedure went without any complications. I was discharged the next day and have been without pain since. Excellent surgeon and a a great job!
