A true professional amongst professional's. Mr Spinks attitude and care towards his patients is outstanding. I recently underwent surgery for crippling back and sciatic pain that I had been suffering with for a couple of years, a double laminectomy, disc reshaping and cyst removal was completed in a couple of hours and I woke up with no pain!!!! Went home the next day walking upright.......still no pain to speak of, in fact I did not have to take any painkillers at all throughout my 6 week recovery. Amazing!!!! I now feel 100% back to normal and attribute it all to a very skilful surgeon. I would highly recommend and trust Mr George Spink for any matters that require the services of a Neurosurgeon.

I saw Mr Spink as an outpatient on two occasions and he preformed an Anterior Cervical Discectomy. On the first meeting he came across as a very polite and courteous professional, this trait didn't change in any of our other meetings. He explained what was wrong with me , the options I had to choose from without trying to baffle me with long medical terms or talking to me or try to dumb down the procedure. He then listened to me and answered my questions and fears about the operation in the same courteous polite manner. I was very apprehensive about the procedure and after the consultation with Mr Spink I was aware of what was to happen and all the possible out comes. Mr Spink is a thoroughly professional person who is polite and courteous and took time to talk to and listen to me. He is a credit to his profession and hospital

Mr Spink was very professional in his manner but was still able to put me at ease when I faced serious surgery. The operation was successful and I am very grateful for Mr Spink's skill in being able to relieve the pain I was experiencing. He took care to explain my MRI scan results to me and to describe what he would do during surgery. On the day of surgery he was able to calm my nerves with good humour. I therefore felt confident in trusting him and would have no problem in recommending Mr Spink to other patients.
