Mr Vasileios Arzoglou

Written by a patient at Hull Royal Infirmary

Mr Arzoglou is an extremely approachable and friendly person. My questions were answered in comprehensive terms without any air of superiority or use of confusing medical terminology. Dealing with different healthcare authorities has led to information being delayed or not received. However, Mr Arzoglou endeavoured to reassure and explain everything, to the best of his abilities, with the information he had relating to my case. A quietly confident and caring gentleman who's services I would recommend to anyone undergoing any neurosurgical procedure.

Generally, the time scale from seeing Mr Arzaglou in May and the operation in June has been excellent, Mr. Arzoglou carried out a thorough examination of my compressed nerve problem and agreed to carry out a Laminectomy. He also noted my hip problems and pain which seemed to be unrelated to the compressed nerve. This diagnosis is ongoing. At my pre-op in June I was told that a Physiotherapist would visit me after the operation, but this did not happen. An appointment was made at the Physiotherapy department on the 11th August 2016, where I also spoke to Mr Arzoglou, who spent some time talking to me. However no physiotherapy has been forthcoming. The operation has been a great success and has reduced my back pain considerably. After 5 years of being told nothing could be done, I can only thank Mr Arzoglou for his genius and expertise and his sympathetic manner. My only complaint is with the lack of consideration on the ward. I had constipation and water problems which were not considered when I was discharged, although this was pointed out to the nurses.

In my opinion I feel that Mr Arzoglou is a very caring and committed consultant, he is very happy to discuss all matters at length before arriving at the best solution. His attention to detail and care afterwards is first class. The results of my spinal surgery were top class, and as it was revision surgery I was expecting a longer period of recovery, however, within four weeks I was able to go away in our touring caravan and was able to walk between 2 to 3 miles per day, I think that speaks loudly for his methods and the resuts he obtains. In conclusion; this Consultant is the best I have had the pleasure of dealing with, his manner and attitude to me has given me great faith in his ability and he put my mind at rest which obviously leads to a better recovery. A top class man, well done to him!

I had a very good experience when visiting Mr Arzoglou. He put me at ease straight away. Listened to me. Explained everything clearly. Asked me if I wanted to ask him anything . He was on time with the appointment so I did not have to wait long. There was other staff around and they were pleasant too. This was my first totally good experience when having a hospital appointment as usually even though you have an appointment there is usually a long delay which makes people get stressed.
