1 year x rays

Feel perfect, and the xrays prove it.  Nothing more than a "looks great" from the spine surgeon who is reopening my late surgeon's clinic in another name.  My late surgeon's wife elected to close his spine clinic.  See below:

Many thanks for sending your images which i have taken time to review, apologies for the delay, but as im sure you will appreciate it has been chaos here with all that has gone on. Im pleased to here you feel wnoderful with full activity levels. Im pleased to report your xray show everything looks great with no cause for concern. Your next set of xrays will be due in a years time.

 

Please feel reassured i will continue to offer advice on international patients operated on by Nick. I will not be charging for this service as patients like youself have already paid out large sums of money and the agreement with the spine clinic was to review xrays at no additional cost. Although the spine clinic has closed, it is only the brand that has closed and im sure Mrs Boeree had her reasons for taking the course of action she has. Im absolutely certain it would not have been what Nick would have wanted. What he did want was a spinal service that could deliver spinal arthroplasty to international patients and i can reassure you that this will be maintained and Nicks legacy will be the surgical skills he engendered in me. The spine service offered by the Wessex nuffield hospital continues in my hands and goes from strength to strength. The clinic will now be called the Hampshire Spine Clinic and  the International Spine Clinic and the website should go live in the next few weeks with the same facility to upload images via google docs. If you would like me to review your images in the future then please liaise with Karen my PA.

 

I would be grateful if you could disseminate this information, perhaps through the ADR forum if you use this.

 

Kind regards

 

Chris
