Mr Narendra Kumar Rath

Written by a patient at Walton Centre for Neurology and Neurosurgery

I was referred to Dr Rath by my GP as I had been suffering with serve leg pain due to displaced disks, I met Dr Rath at my appointment and decided on surgery being my best option, this surgery was performed by Dr Rath and his team November 2018. Dr Rath checked on me after my op and today at my 3 month check my wound was nice and neat and healed brilliantly with no infection, all in all great patient care before during and after.

I had a multi-level lumbar decompression operation on my spine by Mr Rath done on my birthday - what a present - I am now free of the terrible pain I had been suffering in my legs for a long time. I would recommend Mr Rath to everyone. He explained everything to me very clearly plus what could possibly go wrong. I was quite nervous about the operation but each time I had to see Mr Rath I felt more at ease. The treatment I received before and after the operation has been excellent. I was not very well the first night and the nurses were so kind to me, nothing was too much trouble. Mr Rath's secretary Maureen needs a special thank you as she too reassured me when I needed to ask her a question - or two!! I found all the leaflets and brochures given to me very helpful. The nurse doing the pre-op assessment was very efficient and it was nice to have my husband in the room with me. It was a lovely to surprise when Mr Rath came to the ward twice to see me to make sure I was progressing well. I have never had a follow-up visit from a surgeon before. I felt I could ask him anything as he was so approachable. I have mentioned to my GP that if any of his patients have similar problems to mine that Mr Rath and The Walton Hospital is the best to go to. I did appreciate that I could travel to the Countess of Chester Hospital for my final visit to see Mr Rath as it is a much easier journey for us. It is also good to know that, should I feel I need to speak to Mr Rath about my operation I could phone Maureen and she could help me to either speak to Mr Rath, or see him if necessary. Thank you very much for all that everyone in all the various departments has done for me at The Walton to make my operation such a success, especially Mr Rath.

From day one when I saw him in clinic at the Countess of Chester hospital, I had a good feeling about him, he listened to what I told him, and it went on from there! There were no cutting corners, he was there to help. I arrived home from hospital today,, after an an op, there was not one day he did not come to see me. I met a consultant that was caring and very attentive

This was the first doctor I felt actually listened to me and what I was saying about my symptoms. Left his surgery feeling better and also having a clearer understanding of my pain and whereabouts in my body.
