Mr Leach carried out a spinal operation at the Alexandra Hospital in Cheadle in August. The result has been quite remarkable. After years of increasing difficulty in walking, I am now walking with increased stride and strength with measurable improvements as the weeks go by. Life changing for me. I know it has been a team effort, so thanks go to everyone involved at the Alexandra including nurses, operating staff, follow up physiotherapists etc, as well as to Mr Leach. The condition is called stenosis, which apparently is a compression of the spine, caused by arthritis, which presses on the nerves within the spine. Anyone with a similar diagnosis would be well advised to seek the help of Mr Leach at the Alexandra. I am so glad I did. Re previous comments regarding “bedside manner” I found the consultations with him before and after the operation were completely reassuring, striking an ideal balance between professionalism and genuine concern for his patient.
