The form how he explain to me what I have, the treatment, risk and possibilities to recover from the suggested treatment, help me to understand and take the right decision. I was all the time well assisted and informed.

Mr Spink was very understanding of my back issue, of which was giving me severe pain. I felt he did everything he could to get me in as quick as possible for an operation. He came to see me before and after the operation and also gave me his e-mail address to contact him after if I had any questions or worries, which I did and he responded within 10 minutes. Very professional, helpful and a very nice man.

I saw George on September 18th after starting to suffer from pain in the left hamstring, numbness in the left foot and low back pain. I had surgery two years ago when suffering the same symptoms and was receiving regular injections from the pain management team at Scunthorpe general hospital. Unfortunately these injections were not managing the pain any more. I discussed the situation with George and we agreed that further surgery was appropriate. The operation was arranged for 9th October and went very well. The pain down the left leg has now gone and the low back is getting better as time goes on, I am now nearly seven weeks post op. Throughout my stay I was kept comfortable,relaxed and well informed by george and his staff who were always concerned that I was not in pain or discomfort.George even took the time to go and speak to my wife as I was recovering from the anaesthetic and told her how I was doing and that I would be back in my room soon. We thought this was very nice as he was very busy.

Took the time to really listen and understand our situation, offered careful advice and kept us informed at all stage. Very capable and adept as a surgeon and as a consultant we cannot recommend MrSpink highly enoughand had complete trust in his abilities to help us smoothly reach a positive outcome.
