Welcome to The Spinal Foundation,

how can we help?

“I felt I could have left an hour after the operation”

I had neck surgery Saturday 27/7/19 at 12.30pm in London carried out by Mr Martin Knight of the spinal foundation for a herniated disc between c6-c7 , normally this operation would leave a good 2 inch scar and also would have left me with a partial fusion of my neck ! Thanks to the techniques used by mr Knight that apparently aren’t possible in the neck (cervical) area (was told this by a supposed leading surgeon) I have avoided fusion, massive scaring and was on my way home 28/7/19 at 10am although I felt I could have left an hour after the operation !! back in work on Monday when the standard procedure for this type of injury would have left me off work for weeks, I have had no pain killers since leaving hospital either !! Please please please anyone with neck problems do not accept fusion or disc replacement as the only option , he’s removed the compression and saved my disc !!

The staff were so accommodating and friendly and the food was amazing.

Mr Theo Luck director of quality and clinical development absolutely pulled out all the stops to make this operation possible as did Mr Knight , cannot recommend this hospital team enough they really are second to none

Thank you - From the Spinal Foundation
