Spinal Surgery

    I have to elect to see a spinal specialist with a view to the potential need for surgery.

    Whilst I accept the rule of the forum that does not allow any comments regarding the individual specialist, can anyone suggest a source of information where someone as uninitiated as myself can find that information?

    Preferably none, but I need to have a consultation to be able to get the best advice and was looking to get a recommendation for a specialist to go and talk to.

    L4/L5 disc based problems.

    Patient.co.uk and uptodate.com have a good selection of resources for patients, mostly free.

    Very interesting, thank you but not quite what I am looking for. I am in-search of a recommended specialist in the Dublin area.
