A big Thank you to Mr Ishaque, His lovely PA Linda and the Staff at BMI Priory for getting me back on the road of recovery so swiftly.

After suffering from a slip disc(disc herniation) on the lower spine almost 12 months ago, coming to Mr Ishaque was one of the best decisions I made.  To put it in simple terms my disc leaked out on both sides left and right causing pressure on the sciatic nerve and eventually ended up cramping my right leg. Being a typical bloke and busy with working life, it was about now I began to seek professional medical advice.

His experience, advice and professionalism was exemplary. We quickly set about a planning my treatment path, the initial consultation he booked me in for scans and xrays and also allowed a couple of weeks early on, while this process was rolling to see if exercise/natural remission would occur. Failing this the next steps were already pencilled in to undergo an ‘epidural’ type procedure once or twice if required before we decide upon any critical decisions like spinal surgery.

Over a period of nine months, I went through two ‘epidural’type procedures, each time I noticed an improvement.  The process was as described, seamless and remained highly professional between Mr Ishaque and BMI Priory Staff.

I am now just undergoing the final few sessions of Physio, but feeling much much better, no more painkillers and more importantly no more back pain.

All that remains is to say a big Thank you to Mr Ishaque, His lovely PA Linda and the Staff at BMI Priory for getting me back on the road of recovery so swiftly.
