My back problem was a complaint that had progressed and got worse over the years.

Eventually, one day when leaning forward in a chair to plug in my computer, there was a loud crack followed by pain in the lower back and left leg. It was excruciating and I never again want to experience pain at that level.

Following referral to Mr Krishna and a full evaluation of the problem (a missing disc with the two discs above starting to deteriorate) I eventually arrived at surgery day. The procedure itself, whilst obviously not pleasant, went like a dream thanks to MR Krishna and his team. The surgery took approximately 4-5 hours, followed by 3 days recuperation in hospital and then a further 12 weeks resting at home.

I am a big guy at 6ft 5in and thought my back problem was with me for life, but I am now fully recovered and back at work. There is no pain and no more short temper.

Each time I now see Mr Krishna, he always says he loves to see my smiling face. That says it all for me!
