Hi, I have just been on the Spinal Foundation. Is Mr Martin Knight good, did your operation work? The website looks really encouraging but don't want to get hopes up though. Thanks

Spinal foundation

Hi,
I've been suffering with progressive neck pain for years now and have not had any help from the NHS. I recently had steroid injections in my neck which has made things worse. All they can suggest now is pain killers which don't work anyway. I have been asking for a referral to the Spinal Foundation for years but my PCT refuses. I can't afford to pay privately as not working currently due to so much pain. I have contacted Spinal Foundation about costs but they can't give me a round about amount. Thing is, if i see him privately the NHS washes their hands off me in relation to getting a referral to to see them ever.
I don't know why but somehow i feel they may be able to help me with my awfully painful neck.
Can you tell me your experience please with Mr Knight.
Thanks Anna

i would advise to keep away from who you ask about, i am virtually crippled after surgery in 1996, if you do go and see him, think about it and take advise from someone else first before any procedure,

spinal operation

Please could we have some more info. on your experience of spinal op.
Was it done using the MISS (minimally invasive) technique?. I'd really appreciate some feedback.

Copy of other martin knight post

HiMr M Knight can u help me with some info?

My problem is in L4/5 area with spondylolisthesis grad 1 with sciatica going down right leg I've had it for five years now but first it was 24hrs a day 7 days a week after surgery it is now intermittent.

Hiya BIONIcuser.

I had an Endoscopic Laser Foraminoplasty and Decompression procedure to cure my 'L 4/5 sciatica' at the BMI Huddersfield in October 2008, performed by Mr. Knight himself.

MR KNIGHT'S (ELFD) PROCEDURE, DID WHAT IT SAID ON THE TIN!!

Or, in his case, the 'web site'.

Everything from the initial consultation to the hospital release, went as per his descriptions.

The consultation lasted just under of 2 hours, and he as was very thorough and considerate. He said things that I have never heard from any Surgeon, before or since. Those 2 hours cost me £200, the same my NHS Surgeon charged (privately), and he gave me just 15 mins.

The preparations, extra requirements and information before the surgery was 1st class. During the operation, I was able to tell him which nerves were pain producing and which were not, this is because of the aware state/ twighlight anaesthetic.

Due to complictaions, my op lasted 3 hours instead of one and a half, but I was able walk unaided 30 minutes after I came back from theatre.

I walked home the next day, using my legs, taxis and trains.

I had 'no' post op complications, scarring and only required a sterisrip plaster and one stitch. My GP said it was the 'most neat' thing he had ever seen!!

This is the most minimally invasive spinal surgery available in the UK if not the world today, but don't take my word for it, read his web site and compare with other surgeons who claim to use MISS techniques.

The truth is out there people, do your research!!

Best wishes
