I was initially introduced to Mr Laing via Dynamic Health (Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust) physio service, to which I was referred by my local GP after a rapid further deterioration in my condition during the pandemic. Prior to my first consultation with Mr Laing, I had an MRI at Addenbrookes Hospital on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus. Mr Laing was able to show me the results of my scan digitally during our Zoom call which was both impressive and incredibly useful. Using Zoom for a personal health consultation can be intimidating and sometimes feel impersonal but during lockdown this was the only practical option and it has worked well once you get used to it. I was put in a virtual waiting room for a few minutes before the call began. Mr Laing is a very direct, down to earth, practical, no nonsense and honest chap who may not always appreciate how a patient might need to describe their personal experience in non-clinical ways. Having said that, that matters little to me because as far as I am concerned he operates at the top of his profession, has a huge amount of experience and is absolutely the person you would want to operate on you if you ever need this intervention. My experience has been very positive so far and although I am in the early days of recuperation I am confident that Mr Laing is the best at what he does. He was recently profiled in a BBC series which is worth watching because it demonstrates his competence, commitment and humanity. I recommend him highly. In my case, his treatment has been timely and effective, enabling me to live with considerably less discomfort and greater mobility.
