I could not recommend Mr Mokawem enough after the treatment and care he has given me for my scoliosis. Every appointment we had, we are always approached with a reassuring and calm manner, and feeling fully informed on our possible options. We were meant to go ahead with surgery, yet after the Multi-Disciplinary Meeting took place, we were told that in my current position, they should not operate until further investigation had taken place. This just shows how incredible this team is, willing to postpone the surgery as something was not quite adding up. However, after thorough investigation, the surgery went ahead. He always left me choice throughout this process, listing all of the benefits and drawbacks of each stage. I was operated on at the RNOH, and almost every day, Mr Mokawem would come and see me. On around day 3, he came in and asked me if I wanted to stand and go for a short walk. I didn’t as this was one of the days I felt the most sore, but after some time chatting with him, he reassured me and supported me to push myself. I could not be more grateful for Mr Mokawem and his team’s care, and would highly recommend him to anyone! He has been hugely reassuring both to me and my parents.

I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Lee's exceptional care and expertise. From the moment I met him, it was evident that he approached my case (disc herniation in c6/c7) with the utmost seriousness and compassion, treating me as if I were his own family member. After enduring months of debilitating pain and feeling dismissed by other medical professionals who deemed my condition as 'minor,' Dr. Lee's thorough evaluation revealed the gravity of my situation. Unlike previous experiences, Dr. Lee took the time to meticulously examine my MRIs, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of my condition. His dedication extended beyond the initial consultation, as he frequently checked in to clarify treatment options, including the intricacies and potential risks associated with surgery. Navigating the intricacies of the medical system can be disheartening, particularly when the professionals you rely on for accurate guidance and empathetic care dismiss your experiences, leaving you to doubt your own pain and circumstances. Dr. Lee's unwavering commitment to his patients sets an extraordinary standard in an often impersonal environment. His thoroughness in pinpointing the root cause of my pain and presenting effective solutions has reignited my trust in medical care. While I hope to avoid further surgeries in the future, I take comfort in knowing that Dr. Lee will be my first choice if the need arises. For anyone grappling with back issues requiring surgical intervention, I wholeheartedly recommend entrusting their care to Dr. Lee. Thank you, Dr. Lee, for guiding me through this challenging journey. I eagerly anticipate reclaiming a life free from pain under your teams expert care!

Very thorough, helpful and explained everything in terms that I understood.

I had an excellent experience with Mr. Asef Al-Ani, the Spinal Specialist. His expertise and care were evident from the moment I stepped into his office. He took the time to listen to my concerns and thoroughly explained my treatment options. His professionalism and dedication to his patients truly make him stand out. I highly recommend Mr. Asef Al-Ani to anyone seeking top-notch spinal care.

Mr Sayal is an excellent communicator and takes the time and trouble not only to explain the medical condition clearly but to set out options and likely outcomes to enable the patient to make an informed decision. He is both professional and caring.

After a warning from the neurosurgeon & oncologist who had been monitoring the regrowth of my meningioma in September 2023 that it required surgery & as it was a second operation it was at high risk of stroke, bleeding, bone infection, going through old scar tissue, the tumour was pressing against a large vein. My daughter suggested I sought a second opinion, we chose Mr Shoakazemi who also specialises in my type of brain tumour.  He confirmed…the risks were very high indeed, the brain tumour had grown too big for fractionated radiotherapy and surgery through the old wound of some 20 + years ago was the only option. We found Mr Shoakazemi to be extremely approachable, professional, calm, warm & informative.  I feel incredibly lucky to have had the faith on a date said to be the unluckiest day in the yearly calendar …Friday 13th October to undergo surgery with such a gifted neurosurgeon. I am (thankfully to Mr Shoakazemi) walking straight, talking straight & feeling fully blessed.

Mr Shetty came highly recommended which is why I was under his care. I’ve had to see him 2 occasions for sciatica. Both times he listened to my complaint and talked me through my options. I felt very at ease with him all the time

An absolute pleasure in every respect. Kind, patient and meticulous in providing all necessary information. Managed to put together a team to operate on me on Good Friday. Totally impressed by his commitment and his empathy.
