Went to see Dr. Sadek as I have been suffering from neck pain for a few months. He immediately examined me thoroughly and requested imaging tests in order to provide me with the most informed diagnosis. He reassured me this pain is transitory and advised me on what I can do in terms of lifestyle changes to alleviate it. I highly recommend Dr. Sadek!

Mr Ahmed-Ramadan Sadek is everything you want in a doctor: knowledgeable, empathetic and efficient. After despairing for near 3 years with undiagnosed back pain, Mr Sadek gave me a preliminary diagnosis after being in his consultation room for under a minute - a diagnosis proved right when the following procedure worked! Genuinely life-changing, thank you so much!

Explanation

Mr Sadek was amazing with me. I was hospitalised whilst on holiday in France with a slipped disc in my lower back. When I got back to the UK the first consultant I saw immediately recommended an operation and wanted to book me in for surgery the following week. I was unsure as I was pretty much pain free by the time I met the first consultant so, upon the recommendation of a friend with a similar condition, I met Mr Sadek for a second opinion. Mr Sadek reviewed my MRI scan and examined me. He found that I had 5/5 leg strength with one test and 4/5 for the second and felt that an operation wasn't necessary or wanted at my age (I am 53). To confirm, Mr Sadek booked me in for a nerve conduction study with Dr David Ingram and this confirmed regeneration of my of my nerves. Mr Sadek recommended a course of physiotherapy and wished me all the best. Fantastic chap. Can't recommend him enough.

Mr Sadek has been amazing since I had my first telephone consultation with him. He listens very carefully and then advises you on the next step. He is very professional and always makes me understand the next step forward. I’m a very anxious person and he explained in detail my MRI report in order for me not to panic and assured me there is always a way. Thank you very much Mr Sadek. I cannot thank Maryam enough for handling my 100 phone calls a day. She is extremely helpful, listens to my requests and solves them. I was panicking after my MRI report and Maryam made sure I had a same day telephone call with Mr Sadek just to be calm. You have been a star. Thank you once again Maryam.
