I would absolutely recommend Mr Gnanalingham. He treated my wife following an accident, was excellent and when I developed a problem I sought his advice. He has a very nice manner and is very approachable. His secretary Vaani should also get a mention as she assists greatly in the process and oils the wheels. It is a real help to the patient to have someone you can readily contact in the event of any query, arranging scans, x-rays and dealing with any admin. She always responds promptly and efficiently. Investigations such as scans were conducted immediately without any difficulty. My MR provided clear diagnosis. Mr Gnanalingham explained things clearly, showing me the relevant sections on screen, from the scans and provided some reassurance as he put the findings in context, in respect of age and general condition of my spine. Advice in respect of activities and sports, which were suitable for my condition was very useful. In essence advice was practical and straightforward. I did not feel under any pressure to have further treatment. Indeed Mr Gnanalingham was in favour of managing the condition conservatively with physio. He assisted with a physio referral and this proved to be excellent also and most effective. As I write this I am pain free and whilst a cure is not possible I feel a different person to that prior to seeking help. I am more confident moving and performing day to day activities, which didn’t feel possible previously. Whilst I do not delude myself, I’m sure at some point I will have problems again, but I feel much better equipped to deal with and manage it and Mr Gnanalingham stressed I can return at any time to review my situation. Obviously I sincerely hope, in the nicest possible way, not to have see Mr Gnanalingham again! But if I require it, for further advice, management or medical intervention, I would definitely feel confident in doing so and indeed he would be my first port of call. So all in all a very positive experience.
