Spinal Nerve Root Block Injection

"Spinal Nerve Root Block Injection"

About: Heavitree Hospital

I went into Heavitree Hospital today for a Spinal Nerve Root Block injection. After getting stressed and anxious for several days regarding the procedure, I can not thank the team that looked after me enough. Any questions were answered and explained in detail, I was put at ease by the calm and caring attitude of the staff. If anyone is due to have this procedure and are anxious, don't be, it was relatively painless and over with very quickly.
