I have been seen by Mr Spink on several occasions over the years and have always found him to be courteous, considerate and professional in every respect.

Had a very easy appointment over Zoom. Was able to explain the recent changes in my health and we discussed at length what my options for pain relief were. A subsequent appointment was quickly arranged by Mr Spink for me to see one of his colleagues for further pain management. Everything was dealt with quickly and efficiently by Mr Spink and his secretaries.

Its difficult to add to the positive comments of the many people Mr. Spink has treated. I first met him when I needed a spinal decompression a number of years ago. His easy manner at the first consultation put me at ease, and after surgery I made a full recovery and was pain free for over a year. Sadly, I grew a spur of bone at the operation site, which resulted in the return of the pain. Since then I have easily been able to contact him, and he has quickly arragned for Dr. Maliakal to carry out nerve blocks which have successfully stopped the pain for several months. A wonderful team. I have recently had a video consultation with Mr. Spink, to arrange my most recent nerve block. I am due to have a face to face consultation in the near future to discuss surgical removal of the spur of bone. My experience is such, I have faith in Mr. Spink to try to resolve my Chronic pain.

Mr Spink provided a comprehensive and understandable explanation of his findings in respect of my health condition and suggested that I accept his offer to make a referral on my behalf to a Neurologist. He made the referral promptly. Mr Spink’s professional manner gave me confidence in his abilities and I found him both likeable and easy to trust. I consider the charge fee to be reasonable and I would not hesitate to ask for his services again should the need arise. I am unable to make any suggestions for improvement in the service provided.
