Mr Greg Rudol

Written by a patient at Leeds General Infirmary

Whilst I was unfortunate enough to be admitted to hospital for the period 24/12/17 to 15/01/18, I was fortunate enough to be under the care of Mr Rudol. My illness required urgent spinal surgery in order to avoid paralysis. After being transferred to the LGI from St James’s, I and my family were met by Mr Rudol at 7.3am the next morning. In the meeting the seriousness of my condition was explained in full and the likely ‘draft’ plan for my treatment was discussed with us all. The meeting also included Mr Rudol’s colleagues Mr Gummerson and Dr Patankar. The team provided excellent care which was repeatedly explained to me as I went along the journey. The management was provided by Mr Rudol who also listened intently to my fears and concerns and explained why certain procedures were to take place and also the critical timing of them. This not only allayed my fears but also instilled total confidence in Mr Rudol. I and my family will be eternally grateful to Mr Rudol and his colleagues for the excellent healthcare they have provided.
