Mr George Spink

Written by a private patient at Spire Hull and East Riding Hospital

I have had an excellent experience with Mr Spink, he is professional knowledgeable and genuinely cared about my concerns, he took the time to listen and explained carefully my options, I was made to feel comfortable with the process. I had a PLIF operation and am very happy with the outcome.

I had been in severe back pain for a number of years and having gone down the route of various treatments including steroid injections and then Nerve ablation (which helped temporarily) the pain became so intense I knew I needed to look for a reputable surgeon. I identified Mr George Spink through my research and by speaking to people who had been treated by him as one of the best neurosurgeons. When I first met George Spink I liked him straight away. He was kind courteous and caring and he listened to my long list of questions which he answered professionally sympathetically and with understanding and he was very open and honest in his responses. After a few meetings with him I took the next step and decided to go ahead with the surgery which was carried out at The Spire in Anlaby. My treatment was impeccable by the Spire and its staff and of course by George Spink. The procedure was to fuse L4 & L5 of my spine and remove the disc and replace it with a titanium cage and screws. Also a large cyst was removed. He visited me prior to my surgery and after the surgery and held my hand while he explained everything had gone well. He also visited me the following morning before I left the hospital. I am now nerve pain free and am able to get on with my life again. I owe it to the care, consideration and skill of George Spink. He is a truly gifted surgeon and has given me my life back and I can dance again.. I would whole heartedly recommend George Spink to anyone considering treatment of this nature. Catherine Lewak

Good surgeon and very friendly, just shame about the care received whilst in private hospital,.was transferred to NHS under same surgeon and care was fantastic, Dr Spink sorted out appointments/procedures and I was seen very quickly every time. Although it took 8 operations to sort out my CSF leak due to being a complex patient Dr.Spink was very understanding and ended up on first name terms.
