Very happy with my experience at new hall hospital, was made to feel very comfortable and very welcome, the hospital itself is very idyllic, strong old building, unique couldn’t of asked for more. Having tested positive for the old kung flu first time round I wasn’t to happy, but eventually the operation date arrived not to long after. I had a discussion with mr dabke beforehand about my options, and he explained and took me through the operation step by step. I could tell the man oozed experience and came across a very knowledgeable, and composed individual. I was fully aware that I was in a 10-20% bracket of people who’s S1 disc herniation doesn’t heal, as it was elective surgery, there was an element of me feeling as if I was an imposter at the hospital, especially in the run up to the operation, I just couldn’t shrug the pain off after 3 years I was really overthinking everything and at the crossroads of shall I just live with it and not have the operation. Mr dabke was quick to re-assure me I couldn’t of asked to be in better hands. One of the staff members said to me before hand “who is your surgeon” and my reply was “Mr Dabke” too which they replied “he is the best, very gentle” and I must say he lived up too it, I would probably pay to have a conversation with him about spinal care, discs, as all I have been doing for basically 3 years is researching discs, types of herniation spinal care, aftercare you name it, I’m on it! People like mr dabke, how? They do this work day in day out? How much of a composed individual must you be to perform these operations on a daily basis? A steady hand x10? Even days when your not feeling it, he still performs with such care and precision? God has its favourites most definitely, I mean it’s food for thought. The hospital is great, old school, unique didn’t smell like a hospital, it was like a building from ancient Tartaria, the food was sound I had a room with an en-suite which was a big tick, I was on the NHS so I really was blessed I really cannot complain as effectively I was at a private hospital for free. 8 weeks post operation and I am absolutely killing it! And after my follow up on the 12th of August mr dabke tells me I’ll be even better in 3 months, I’ve gone from walking like uncle Albert off only fools and horses for 3 years, now I’m walking like Conor mcgregor and everyone is commenting saying how much better I am! All the pain is gone from my face, no more dropfoot, no more pain when coughing and sneezing! Dont get me wrong I still have slight pain in lower back/buttock but i feel it’s pain that will soon go as I guess the discs itself is still recovering? I am now off all medication which I took recreationally knowing full well it was doing absolutely nothing to shift the pain, all it was doing was making care less about it, thank god I am off those mood and mind altering tablets! Hey ho all in all 10/10 experience so BIG shout out too Mr Harshad Dabke, the man, the ying and the yang! the alpha and the omega! Also BIG shout out too the hospital staff lehenrtha, Katie, Hannah, and anelesiza, please forgive me if I have spelt any names incorrectly. So hopefully I won’t be seeing you all again in the nicest possible way, was re-assured tho if any pain or problems further down the line to get in contact. Great experience overall was in and out efficiently just how I like it! would highly recommend to anyone. Again thank you. Yours sincerely Daniel Marshman.
