I went to Newark AE Friday night as I could not stand the back pain any longer. I was quickly loses feeling in my right leg while being unable to pass urine. I was diagnosed with sciatica by my GP in May. On arrival at Newark AE they quickly transferred me to Kings Mill Hospital where they carried out MRI scan and fitted a catheter. What a relief! Early hours Sunday morning the decided to transfer me to QMC, D8 ward. Very quickly I was seen by a fantastic consultant Eyal Berhrbalk. Mr Berhrbalk carried out a spinal fusion after discussing risks etc. I've finally got my life back after 6 months of agony. He is the most considerate skilled man I could have wished for. Also the staff including nurses, care workers and catering staff were second to none. I work in care and see how care workers are always mentioned for negative incidents. These people are angels! Thank Mr Berhrbalk! Thank you D8!
"Thanks to all staff on D8 west block"
