I wish I'd known about Mr Aylott and the Cheltenham Spine Clinic earlier because I could have saved myself from many months of excrutiating pain with sciatica. Having been unable to get any diagnosis or treatment through my GP, I arranged a private MRI scan which showed a spinal cyst. I had a consultation and a standing Xray in one afternoon at Cheltenham. Mr Aylott was very reassuring, answered all my questions, and gave me clear treatment options with the most definitive option being surgery with dynamic stabilization. Two weeks later I had the surgery at the Harley Street Hospital and walked out later that day pain free! My recovery has gone well, and now at 6 weeks I am pain free and able to go for long walks. My lower back also no longer aches as it did before and I am looking forward to returning to tennis at 3 months. For me the experience has been life changing!

I was very impressed with the care received by Dr Aylott. He took time to go through my scan with me detailing various issues. He followed up with a detailed letter of the problems and possible treatments. The actual procedure went very smoothly without pain or discomfort.

I cannot thank Mr Aylott and team enough for what I can really only describe as a 'Life changing procedure' - Followed with care and support'. Having had a multi level spinal decompression in the lower spine - I am now after years - PAIN FREE.
