Mr Thomas was a great consultant. He really reassured me and the surgery was no issue for him at all, in fact it took a lot less time than I expected and the results have been amazing. I would recommend him to anyone that needs spinal surgery, and will use him again in the future for any other further surgeries I need.

Our experience with Nick Thomas was exceptional from start to finish. He is an excellent Neurosurgeon - one of the best. However the communication from his PA was poor and no reflection on him.
