Reviews
Mr Mokawem, Michael is without doubt the best Consultant I have been treated by over many years and multiple previous surgeries. The procedure to rebuild my lower back has completely changed my life, taking away constant unbearable pain and whilst it is still early days he has given me hope for the future. He is kind, considerate and takes time to explain what is wrong and what needs to be done. He was willing to offer help when others would not.
My surgery was at the Royal National Orthopaedic hospital and the care there was excellent from start to finish with Michael involved and managing my care throughout.
Mr Mokawem was caring, understanding, professional and extremely knowledgable, diagnosing my back issue very quickly. I ended up needing a surgical procedure which he explained clearly and thoroughly and reassured me. The procedure was a huge success and I feel better than I have in years. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Mokawem he was an excellent consultant/ surgeon.
My daughter recently had spinal fusion surgery at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital under the care of Mr Mokawem.
Mr Mokawem was able to put my daughter and I at ease from the start by honestly and concisely explaining the entire procedure.
He is extremely professional, patient and caring towards his patients and ensures that any questions are fully answered and understood. The surgery was successful and my daughter is very happy with the results.
I would not hesitate in recommending Mr Mokawem and his team.
Without any hesitation I would recommend Mr Mokawem for his skill as a surgeon and his great caring attitude.
All explanation were very clear and readily understood , Mr Mokawem is extremely generous with his time
Our daughter developed adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and we chose Mr Mokawem after some research. On meeting with him, we were struck by his calm and informative manner, giving us as much detail. We loved the fact that he addressed our daughter mostly, trying to keep the language simple. He has a serene way about him which inspires confidence.
We are very pleased with the successful results of the spinal fusion, our daughter is making steady progress. While undoubtedly a lot of skill and training is required, we very much approved of his gentle approach to something that was quite unnerving for our family. Mr Mokawem was empathetic and measured in his dealings with us. Our daughter was discharged from the RNOH last week and we feel it's important that Mr Mokawem is recognised for his efforts. We absolutely made the right choice in choosing Mr Mokawem as the level of skill and care provided by him was outstanding.
