Mr Dabke
Explained the whole procedure in great detail, and put me wholly at ease.
Mr Dabke fully explained the pros and cons of my spinal decompression surgery. I felt confident in him carrying out the surgery. The surgery has been a success.After 6 weeks I can walk 7 miles pain free which is such a relief as previously I could only walk a short distance before the pain set in.
I cannot thank Mr Dabke enough. In addition to his calm, empathetic and assured approach his surgical skills have changed my life. I am pain free for the first time in years and I feel so much better mentally as well as physically.
Mr H Dabke comes across as being very patient and listens to what you have to say, and you don’t feel in any rush, which in the Stone Age is very rare from a consultant or GP, he gave me a very clear and precise understanding of the procedure that I needed to have along with the up’s and the downside I fully appreciated him being so candid with me which gave me great confidence in his ability.
Thank you, Mr Dabke
Bearing in mind the seriousness of an injury to my thigh that I suffered in a horse-riding accident (Morei-Lavallee Lesion complicated by an infection), I consider myself incredibly lucky to have found myself under the care of Mr. Dabke.
What a very clever and likeable man.
I was particularly impressed when he had the decision to make on two possible courses of action, that he allowed and welcomed my input and invited my thoughts and feelings.
The NHS's current problems with resources are well documented and so I believe that it has never been more important than it is now for the NHS to keep hold of people of Mr. Dabke's caliber.
