Spine Surgery

I am writing to provide a review of my experience with spine surgery in the UK. I had two failed surgeries in my hometown, and I was very scared to undergo surgery again. However, after extensive research, I found Dr. Jan Herzog at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital. I was immediately relieved after reading about his experience and qualifications.

When I met Dr. Herzog, I was immediately impressed by his knowledge and understanding of my situation. He explained the surgical procedure in detail and answered all of my questions patiently. I felt confident that he was the best person to perform my surgery (complex 2-staged L4/5 fusion).

Excellent care

The surgery itself was a major one, but I was confident in Dr. Herzog’s skills and the expertise of the staff at the Hospital. I am grateful for the excellent care that I received from everyone involved in my surgery and recovery.

The staff at the hospital were all very helpful and cheerful. They were considerate of my situation and made me feel welcome and comfortable. I am so pleased that I chose to have my surgery there.

Overall, I had a very positive experience with spine surgery in the UK. I am grateful for the expertise of Dr. Herzog and the staff at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital. I would highly recommend him and the hospital to anyone considering spine surgery.
