Mr James Casha 2022-12-01 Person 1 5 0

I saw this individual after having had an MRI at the Willam Harvey Hospital. It took months to get in to see him, and when i did he was more interested in how I made scrambled eggs. He said I would probably benefit from the steroid injection rather than an operation. I was told to phone his surgery to see if i had been short listed, which I had. A month later was telephoned by his practice and asked if I still wanted the injection so I said yes, a month later was phoned again and told asked if Cashas' assistant could give the injection, I again said yes. In October 2017 I was in such pain I could not walk, so after numerous phone calls spoke to a receptionist, and after telling her I was unable to walk at all, was told to "get your practice to write a letter, to arrange "urgent" treatment"! What she didn't understand in my saying that I was unable to walk, i still don't know! Two days later, still unable to walk without crutches, I went to the William Harvey Hospital, was admitted, had another MRI, and while on the ward it was found my bladder would not empty. I was taken to Kings College Hospital where I underwent an emergency Laminectomy, the surgeon there broke the bone saw on my spine, as he said, "your bones are as hard as Ivory, and I broke the saw on your back!" So now I can't walk properly, have no feeling below my knees, have drop foot in my right foot. When I had recovered sufficiently, and started walking with crutches, Casha's surgery phoned me as they had received a letter from the New Dover Road Surgery in Canterbury a month after undergoing surgery! I would NOT recommend this individual, or his surgery, rather get hold of the Kings College Hospital!
