I consulted with Mr Al-Mahfoudh with chronic neck pain of duration at least 12 months. My pain was intensifying, becoming debilitating, and escalating doses of painkillers were not providing relief from pain. After a number of diagnostic scans, CT-SPECT identified the site of pain to be C1-C2. With that knowledge, fusion surgery was agreed after much discussion, and this was performed in September 2022. I am delighted with the outcome: at 2 months post-surgery, I have complete resolution of pain. My limitations in neck movement seem inconsequential given the outcome, and are no worse than that prior to surgery, when neck motion was limited due to pain. I highly recommend Mr Al-Mahfoudh, as I do fusion surgery for anyone in a similar situation to mine. Not only because of my outcome, but also because of the positive endorsements from many of his colleagues during my hospital visits, I am confident that Mr Al-Mahfoudh is a very talented surgeon.
