I have visited this hospital more than once, the first time after a hospital admission for severe back pain.
I had tried acupuncture and physiotherapy with no success but then was sent to Leatherhead to see a member of my Consultant's team.
They had the MRI scan results and the xray results (done in EDH) and spotted that the problem was compression fractures of the vertebrae.
They said there was a chance that facet injections may control the pain and referred me.
I have had two lots of injections and they are magic.
I go for follow ups at Leatherhead and are then booked in for another session of injections.
I could not be more pleased.
I have also attended for a chest xray and received the results there and then.
They showed up fibrosis which entailed another stay at Epsom Hospital.
Reception staff lovely and I have never had to wait for more than 10 minutes.
Thank you everyone.
