- I am extremely impressed with the care and effort given by Dr Mitchener. I saw her as a second opinion as I have been in severe pain, first Dr just brushed me off to pain management but Dr Mitchener listened and went out of her way to help. I will always be grateful and highly recommend her.
- I cannot recommend Mrs Mitchener highly enough! Everything from start to finish was friendly, efficient and extremely professional. Mrs Mitchener carried out complex anterior cervical disectomy and fusion surgery at levels C4-C5, C6-C7 and C6-C7 in June 2026 and I am delighted to report that this completely resolved all of my symptoms! A brilliant surgeon and a lovely person to deal with!
- I have been very impressed with Dr Anne Mitchener’s expertise and the care she has given me throughout my treatment for sciatica. She carried out my procedure without complications, and I felt in very capable hands. Alongside her technical skill, she is kind, attentive and approachable. She takes the time to listen to our concerns and explain things clearly, giving us reassurance about my recovery and the next steps. I am very grateful for her care and would highly recommend her.
- Appointment was slightly delayed. Otherwise, appointment was most helpful and professional.
- Dr Anne Mitchener is an amazing surgeon, really friendly and provided thorough advise on the treatment. Aftercare treatment has also been spot on! My recovery has been so good with all the help and advise recieved from her. She is an amazing surgeon!
- Fantastic clinic. Perfectly happy with the result of the surgery.
- Dr Mitchener got me sitting and walking for the first time in months. She and her team made every effort to perform the surgery as soon as possible, rushing round with short notice. Couldn't be happier with the results and her care!
- As soon as I met Mrs Mitchener, I knew I was in the best of hands. She put me at ease quickly and her attention to detail, throughout my journey, from the first appointment was the very best. She looked at me and said I’m going to fix you! And she has!!
- Mrs Mitchener was excellent all along, from my first consultation to my surgery and beyond.
