Please has anyone had this back operation by Dr Sevil Arslan. Or any spine operation by her. She is a spine specialist at Kamiloglu Hospital. The operation will be at the Kolan in Nicosia.
Just really worried about this.
Thankyou.

You are so right to be worried. Always get a second opinion. .

I had damaged vertebrae L4/5 following an operation in the UK to remove a cyst on my spinal chord. This operation was carried out by a consultant specialist 12cyears ago! Unfortunately he didn't do anything with the broken facets of the vertebrae. I had mine repaired by Professor Halil Seker who is a top neurosurgeon here in Lefkosia. He was at the Suat Gunsel when I had the surgery 3 years ago. He rebuilt the missing facets with a bone graft within a cage and he also removed the broken off fragments that were left after my previous operation that were embedded in my sciatic nerve. He also strengthened the weakened vertebrae using 2 metal rods. I can most definitely recommend him 100%
