- I had watched Mr Sherry’s video before booking and found him incredibly calming, listened, talk the time to explain and reassure. Even though my situation may not be as significant as others-I felt he was empathetic to my situation. Def recommend.
- 13th July 2024 Mr. Rohit Shetty – Consultant Spinal Surgeon and his team carried out major spinal surgery on me, due to cervical stenosis and myelopathy - C4/C5 on the 6th of June 2024 at Whittington Hospital, London (Cervical Spondylosis ). I am of course really frightened of major surgery due to my advanced age (76 Years) but Mr. Rohit Shetty carefully explained the whole procedure to me in detail so that I was totally confident to go ahead with the surgery without any hesitation. I was extremely impressed in the way the whole procedure was clearly explained to me. The whole procedure went extremely well and I am so thankful to Mr. Shetty. Mr. Rohit Shetty also carried out major Spinal Surgery (L4/L5 Posterior Decompression and Fusion) also at Whittington Hospital in November 2023 which went exactly as planned. I am now free of pain and any future complications which would have happened if the surgery was not done. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Rohit Shetty for anyone needing complex Spinal Surgery as I am totally satisfied with the complex surgeries he has carried out on me.
