Reviews
He was very polite and considered. He examined me carefully, questioned me about my condition and its effect on me then explained his reasoning clearly. My only concern was that having travelled from York for the appointment I arrived early as I did not want to risk being late due to traffic etc but was then quite late going into the consultation.
Everything was explained in easy to understand terms
Possible future treatment was discussed
The surgeon was very personable and inspired confidence
Totally honest with the pros and cons of the surgery.
Gave us confidence from the outset, from consultation through pre surgery and after surgery. highly recommend him.
Totally professional in all aspects and can not think of any way he could improve,
he was truly brilliant.
I had a disc in my neck removed and an artificial one replaced. Before I had the operation I was in was the worst pain i have ever known from a compressed ruptured nerve on my neck. It was the best feeling when I woke up from the operation not having the excruciating pain down my right arm. So when I have my post op appointment I am going to shake this man's hand.
Dr Arzoglou operated on our father to remove a spinal compression. The surgery took almost twice as long as had been expected and it was evident that the surgeons had worked hard to make the operation a success. Dr Arzoglou and his team were very happy with the outcome and our Dad was in good spirits just hours after coming round.
Dad developed sepsis in its most severe form and the wound somewhat struggled to heal however Dr Arzoglou continued to care for the wound and visited Dad at a different hospital to check on the wound. Within weeks the wound healed beautifully and the effects of the sepsis subsided.
Sadly Dad had an underlying condition and recently died but we were pleased that the compression was relieved because shortly before our father's death he was doing really well and was beginning to regain movement in his legs and awaiting physiotherapy. The success of the operation gave Dad the chance to hope; it slowed down the progression of the disease and gave him real quality time to enjoy being with his family again.
We are thankful to Dr Arzoglou and his team and know that our father also appreciated all that they did for him.
