I would live to say ut is all wonderful but I can't. Due to covid I have never met him only over phone, 2020. I am disabled and have massive back surgery 13 years In Oxford Nuffield..after waiting for over 3 years , told at first 9 months wait. Had to get mp involved.. as I was 32 and couldn't move.AMAZING .. Since then I've still been in constant pain, on morphine and many more pain and nerve medication. I have been saying for over q0 years pain inside my bum and gorin & hip. I was told then it was my hip but not bad enough to operate.. Then 2019 mri told me no it my nerve that is jammed, so Mr verghese was now going to help me ,, I had one phone call then I had to have a gel thing put into the place to see if it helped if did do op to release it .... 5 months after call from his secretary ask me some questions I tried to explain the best I could ,, but for first time I had a bit of strength back in right leg, for now 15 years , I use to run in gym 4 ti.es a week , hotel manager , now stuck at home every day, on disability.. I was so grateful finally this could be a game changer for me and my family ... To this day I have not heard one thing nothing I'm now in more pain then ever and I fo hospital, doctors all I get told and have done for years NOTHING ELSE WE CAN DO FOR YOU UNTILL YOU SEE MR VERGHESE, .. They stopped my tables that helped a bit cos now been taking them so long it affected my stomach.. that another story waiting magic eye .. for over a year ... I know covid has been so hard for nhs , but if I was paying it would of been done last year it seems cos everyone on his private seems to be thanking him on here .. When my surgeon from Oxford seen me the first time.e 15 years ago he was so shocked they way a 32 year old had been left for 3 years I got as far as reading phone call come back next day he doing op day after 9 half op .. cos he couldn't leave me any lo get, he did his bit shame swansea nhs have let me down yet again ... I can't get in touch with anyone to help me find out his he doing the op , how long is waiting list , how long am I looking at again with my life on Hold .. Many thanks CYRELLE EDGECOMBE
