I had been suffering with excruciating nerve pain running from my gluteal area right down both legs. It completely changed my way of life from being a regular gym user and not being able to walk at any pace without being in discomfort. At work I was sore whilst seated and was at my wits end. I had an MRI at kingsbridge hospital which identified a growth attached to my nerve roots called a Schwannoma. Mano spoke with me and identified the growth and scheduled me in for a consultation with surgery to follow. From the outset Mano’s calm and reassuring manner, his knowledge and bedside manner put me at ease and I knew I was in the best of hands. On the day of the operation Mano came to see me and once again reassured that everything was in hand. Following the procedure he visited me in whilst in recovery and also once again when I returned to the hospital ward. During my stay in hospital Mano was on time off and still kept in I touch with me by the Healee messaging app making sure my recovery was going ok. Today the results of my biopsy came through and he messaged me to make me aware the growth was benign. As each day passes I am feeling better and am able to do a little bit more. The discomfort from surgery is easing and I just have to keep an eye on the wound and make sure to do my physio exercises. I can’t thank Mano enough for his superb care.
