Caspar Aylott is a medical breath of fresh air. He is friendly, personable, and most importantly, he is absolutely straight to the point and spells out any situation in exact, but easy to understand, details. I also found the staff to be polite and efficient. I am 100% satisfied.

After suffering intense and restricting sciatic pain for several months, which had severely restricted my mobility I contacted the Cheltenham Clinic. I had already had an MRI scan and unsuccessful cortisone injection arranged by another private provider in which I had lost all confidence because of their impersonal attitude. From my first contact with the Cheltenham Spine Clinic and my first consultation with Mr Aylott I felt reassured by the helpful and understanding attitude of everyone concerned (in marked contrast with my negative experience of the other provider). Mr Aylott performed a microdiscectomy at the Harley Street Clinic and 6 weeks later I am fully ambulant once more, pain free and well on the way back to the fitness level of previously. Today, at 81 years of age I am walking 2 -3 miles at a time and look forward to increasing that in the coming months. At all stages of my consultation and treatment by Mr Aylott and his team, I felt fully informed about the nature of my condition, the proposed treatment and likely outcomes. His secretarial/admin staff could not have been more helpful in organising the required tests and screening prior to my surgery. I am wholly satisfied with every aspect of my contact with the Clinic.

Two & half year ago I fell badly in our garden, dislocating my right shoulder & having a deep cut on my right shin. About two months later I started getting pain in my right hip & knee. In September 2022 I saw an orthopaedic consultant & had an MRI scan. Tendinopathy & acute Bursitis were diagnosed. Subsequently ,I decided to try & help myself & had various alternative treatments such as physio, acupuncture, laser treatment and others, none of which gave me much relief! After nearly two years I saw a second orthopaedic surgeon & had another MRI which still said Tendinopathy. I decided to tried cranial osteopathy but after several weeks & no improvement it was suggested I have an MRI of my lower spine. This took me at last to Casper Aylott. He immediately said he knew just what was wrong & that all the treatment I had tried were a waste of time & money! The next MRI of my lumber spine proved him absolutely right! I had Mild scoliosis with grade 1 degenerative spondylolisthesis L2/3 with disc herniation,moderate stenosis and right L3 compression. Mr Aylott explained various options for treatment ,and in May I went to his Harley Street Hospital & had Right L3 transforaminal injection, caudle epidural & facet joint injections . I am glad to say that the injections have eased the pain considerably & I no longer need pain killers. I go swimming ,play gentle table tennis & do gentle exercise. My energy levels have also increased. I would recommend Casper for all things Spinal. He certainly helped me. I just wish I had gone to him sooner! Paddy Grimshaw, aged 86 July 13th 2024
