I had spent 3-4 months in severe debilitating pain in both my back and right leg. This has resulted in 2 weeks in an NHS hospital and various visits to A&E and medical clinics. The NHS had suggested 9-12 months of drugs and physio to resolve this problem. As my pain became more severe I consulted with Michael who infirmed me that I should look to proceed with surgery. Michael was fantastic from our first interaction, speaking in a way that was easy for me to understand, reassuring me of my benefits of surgery, but equally giving absolute clarity as to the risks. 2 weeks after our first consultation I proceeded with surgery with Michael, I am writing this report 5 days after. All my pain has gone with the exception of some soreness from surgery which is to be expected. In summary, I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Michael to any patient suffering with similar issues.

In my initial consultation, tests and follow up appointment and experience to date, I found Mr Michael Mokawem to be extremely helpful, professional, taking time out of hours to go through my results and course of action. Mr Mokawem was kind, helpful and reassuring and also extremely understanding and comprehensive in his review of my results and the explanation of them. I appreciated his calmness and empathy which were both excellent. I must also comment on Jeannette his manager who was exceptionally kind and extremely efficient. When you come across outstanding service and good people, it is nice to recognise and acknowledge them.

Mr Mokawem is very kind, patient and trustworthy. He always explained my Daughters procedures very clearly and in a way that we could both fully understand. He always had time to answer any questions and never seemed in a hurry or ever rushed his answers. My Daughter was in hospital for just over two weeks and Mr Mokawem saw my daughter regularly during her Hospital stay to see how her recovery was going. He is an excellent surgeon and did an amazing job with correcting my Daughters scoliosis, we are beyond happy with the result. We couldn't recommend him highly enough.

Is hard to explain in a few words what Doctor Mokawem did for me. He knew what I went through during this 5 years. Since day one he was very patient with me but immediately acted towards a solution. I had more than 10 operation in my life and this is one of the best. He is a top specialist not only from a technical point of view but also on the empathy and care he has. I couldn't be more happy about the treatment and care I received from him and from all the people at the Stanmore hospital and clinic. I would like to thank him and you all for this. Wish you the best and thank you. Alessandro Corona

Our son has complex needs and during the last 18 years, we have seen many medical professionals. The level of care provided by Mr Mokawem is the best we have experienced. As a surgeon, he is obviously very skilful as the correction of our son's spinal curvature is far better than we had hoped for. As a doctor, before and after the surgery, Mr Mokawem always showed empathy, and was willing to patiently answer our many questions.
