Having waited years for someone to make a decision as to what could be done to alleviate the deteriorating condition of my back/spine, it was indeed very refreshing to meet Mr Bassi on 31st August 2022. Having looked at my CT and MRI scans he explained what could be done to alleviate at least some of the problem and, upon my agreement to his suggestion, he offered me a date of 16th September 2022 for it to be carried out at the Harley St Clinic. He carried out the procedure on that date. I wish I'd met Mr Bassi some years ago!
