Mr James Crinnion was very helpful with my diagnosis and explained the procedure brilliantly. My surgery was explained before hand what he would be doing. After surgery there were no complications at all and I was not in any pain at all.

Professor Brookes’s diagnosis of what my very unusual problem could be and explanation of what he intended to do about it, gave me full confidence in him, from the outset. He has a very sympathetic approach, which helps considerably. In the event, his diagnosis was correct- and his treatment of the issue has been successful. I am very pleased with the outcome.

For over two years I was tormented by Pulsatile Tinnitus. The noise was so loud it affected every part of my life. Along with the noise, I had constant headaches & dizzy spells. I was unable to sleep & depression was taking over. I was told time & time again. “Its Tinnitus, nothing can be done!” It felt completely hopeless. The surgery & work Dr Makalanda is doing, really is life changing, for so many people. After CT scans it was clear I had a blockage, in what I called my brain vein! Or Intercranial Venous Sinus. Yay, finally a diagnosis! When I met Dr Makalanda he gave me hope. Yes there were risks involved with surgery, but any surgery has risks, right? This surgery needs to be more widely available & GP’s educated that not all Tinnitus is the same! Dr Makalanda is a wonderful doctor, kind, caring & super clever! He explained the complicated surgery to me & throughout I felt in the safest hands. I will be forever grateful to him, for giving me my life. Silence now, really is golden.

Friendly and relaxed

Very approachable with the perfect blend of professionalism and friendly manner. Miles explained all the options, the associated risks and his advice was perfectly clear and very helpful. On the day of the procedure, we chatted through what was to happen beforehand, and he came and saw me before he went to other duties after I was fully conscious.

Dr Neil Rane was excellent, he was detailed, empathetic as he knew how anxious I was and made the experience as calm and as comfortable as possible for me. He was attentive, knowledgeable and clear in every aspect of my care and would highly recommend him.
