My private practice is now entirely based at Spire London East Hospital, Ilford. I have two clinics per week together having the facility to admit patients as required for specialist investigations and treatment. I also have access to first class neurophysiology and neuro-radiological support for MRI and other specialist investigations. My waiting list is invariably less than a week between referral and patient consultation.
