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.
