Share review of The Alexandra Hospital - part of Circle Health Group
I had been struggling with a rather severe pain going through my buttocks and into the ankles of both legs when I eventually decided to take action and sought out the help of Mr Kanna Gnanalingham.
I began my first consultation with some trepidation. However, I was immediately reassured by the professional and empathetic nature of Mr Gnanalingham, who had accessed an earlier MRI scan on my back I had previously taken three years ago on the NHS.
He carefully and methodically discussed a plan to deal with my spinal stenosis and I was extremely comfortable in putting my trust in Mr Gnanalingham.
Following another MRI scan, he suggested a initial plan of conservative treatment at a physiotherapist. Whilst this did help slightly the pain did not go any and he suggested an epidural which he carried out at the Alexandra Hospital in Cheadle.
My pain has to a large extent now gone but I am aware through his clear and concise follow up consultations that I may need further injections or even an operation.
His care and compassion has been outstanding and I have no hesitation at all in continuing my treatment under his superb care.
