In Feb 2016 I was admitted under the care of Mr.Al-Mahfoudh with ascending paralysis due to a spinal sheath tumor.
I must admit I was scared. At 55, having been married for just five months and sealed a contract with a showjumper, and an avid horse rider,to me, my whole world had been swepted from under my feet.
When Mr.Al-Mahfoudh introduced himself as my surgeon, he asked me what I knew then went through everything with me.
He was totally honest, reassuring,and his words were kind coupled with soft tones.I know it sounds silly but he made me smile as I felt totally relaxed confident and at ease.
After the op, Mr. Al-Mahfoudh called my husband that night and came to see me first thing.The op went well and it was now 'my turn'.
I have made an excellent recovery although still recovering as nerves take a long time to recover.
I cannot thank Mr.Al-Mahfoudh enough, and also his team for saving my life, truely. And when ever I have a little low moment, I think of this wonderful man and what he has done.I am and will be eternally grateful.
