I had been in severe pain with a trapped sciatica nerve for months. I could not put up with it any longer whilst waiting for an appointment from NHS and decided to go private. I saw Mr Popa who suggested an MRI scan. After the scan it was decided to do a L5 nerve root injection which was done the day after. The morning after the injection I was able to put my weight down on my left leg and walk, something I had been unable to do for months. This has given me some quality of my life back and cannot thank Mr Popa enough.
I was referred to Mr Popa by Warrington Health Services.
I received excellent care and advice from Mr Popa regarding my medical condition.
He explained the operation procedure that was required in a clear and factual manner which I fully understood answering all my questions honestly and giving me full confidence in him.
Before Mr Popa operated on my spine I had great difficulty in walking.
After the operation I am now able to walk again pain free, this experience has left me in awe of his surgical skills.
I would like to thank Mr Popa, all of his team and nursing staff at Walton Centre Hospital for the wonderful care, kindness and dedication I received.
I found Mr Popa to be friendly and easy to talk to. Professional and knowledgeable about my condition which gave me confidence in the surgery that I was going to have. I would not hesitate in seeing him again, if necessary and also would highly recommend Mr Popa to other patients
Did a great job on my microdiscectomy operation. I found him to be very competent and knowledgeable with availability when I needed.
Straight and to the point so you know exactly were you stand. Clear explanations which help you to understand the problem and the possible options for relieving pain.
A big thank you to all those who were involved in relieving my pain. No improvements needed.
