Mr Spink recently performed a corrective surgery on my L4/L5, which was done via a spinal fusion. My prior surgery had made my conditions worse, and when Mr Spink reviewed by various imaging scans, he revealed my previous surgery was not the correct procedure for this particular problem. He took great care to check his own diagnosis with via an MDT meeting, so that we could benefit from multiple perspectives on the issue before recommending any treatment. Mr Spink also arranged nerve conduction tests to understand the level of damage and stress on my nerves, to fully assess the situation. After years of pain for someone who was previously very fit and active, it was a big decision to have yet another surgery. Ultimately, Mr Spink gave me the confidence this was the right decision and so I went ahead and had the PLIF fusion. This has been one of the best decisions I have made, as my recovery since has been something just short of a miracle. A sincere thank you to Mr Spink, for finally helping to remove my constant pain and get back to living my life to the full.
