The most effective spine injections in the UK

I can highly recommend the treatments offered by Mr Aylott at the UK Spine Centre. After suffering for several weeks with severe pain from a herniated disc, the one stop shop consultation/MRI scan and diagnosis was very useful and enabled me to book a spine injection the following week. This was handled very professionally and sympathetically by Mr Aylott and the team and I was comfortable throughout the procedure, needing only a local anaesthetic. The results were excellent and I had immediate relief which has continued to last for the last 6 weeks. I would have no hesitation in recommending this treatment to anyone suffering as I was with the pain of a herniated disc. I hope the benefits of the injection last until the disc naturally repairs itself.

My consultation with Mr Aylott was very informative and professional. My steroid injection for sciatica worked I am now pain free after 18 months When you are in pain you need the best. Hence why I went with Mr Aylott

Mr Aylott explained everything in detail to me very clearly. We looked at my MRI and I am now much clearer about my situation. He examined me and listened to my history. He recommended and administered spinal injections which have worked to a degree and they have allowed me to start gentle exercise which is slowly aiding my recovery. Most importantly, Mr Aylott answered all of my questions and reassured me about all of the things I was worried about. I did not feel rushed and I refer to the patient letter he wrote me regularly to refresh my knowledge of my back. If you're constantly reading worrying articles online and/or waiting for an NHS appointment, I recommend seeing Mr Aylott. Do not expect the NHS to help you. In addition, his staff was extremely helpful in setting up appointments. Thank you Mr Aylott and the team!

I had a consultation with Mr Aylott who took the time to listen and explain to me my most recent mri. He was informative but straight to the point which was appreciated. He also gave me reassurance as I had been suffering with back pain for months. I chose to have spinal injections under sedation to help me with my rehab. Both he and the other staff at the hospital were friendly and reassuring. Six weeks later my pain has been reduced dramatically so I am able to work on my rehab and get back to work. Thank you so much.

Rebecca B – Very knowledgeable, straight talking, and experienced Doctor. He makes you feel very confident in his expertise. I've had a really positive experience of the one day back appointment (two consultations sandwiched around an MRI) as well as a spinal injection in London. I will continue to use Mr Aylott for future back issues.

After four years of undiagnosed debilitating lower back, buttock and leg pain and numerous fruitless NHS and private appointments (including several injections targeting the wrong areas in my back), my husband persuaded me to visit the UK Spine Centre where I met Mr Caspar Aylott at his one-stop clinic. I had a consultation, MRI scan and diagnosis in one afternoon and a week later returned to the Harley Street Hospital for L5 nerve root block and caudal epidural. The pain relief was instant, and now, 8 weeks later I am at least 75% pain free and enjoying life again. Thank you so much Mr Aylott – I just wish I had found you sooner!

Had been suffering with herniated disc & severe sciatica for 6 months. Slow process with NHS so contacted Mr Aylott & within 2 weeks had a spinal injection so I could walk normally and enjoy my holiday while starting to heal naturally. He was straight to the point and clear with the options available. If you have been in pain for 3 months without any improvement I suggest you get in touch with Mr Aylott’s secretary, I wish I’d done it sooner.

My back pain had stopped me from competing my horses and was affecting every aspect of my life. After one visit to Mr Aylott I knew what was going on and made the trip to London to have steroid injections into my back. The relief was instant and 6 weeks on I'm back competing and enjoying life to the full.

I found Mr Aylott to be extremely professional and empathetic. I had seen a consultant elsewhere who I did not feel confident in, and came to Mr Aylott for a second opinion. I felt safe and trusted him with my procedure.

Mr. Caspar Aylott has been a lifesaver for me. His expertise in lower spinal treatment is remarkable, and I couldn't be more grateful for the care he provided. From our initial consultation to the conclusion of my treatment, Mr. Aylott's professionalism and deep understanding of spinal health shone through. He not only relieved my lower spinal issues but also took the time to explain everything clearly, making me feel empowered and informed throughout the process. His compassionate approach and commitment to his patients' well-being make him a standout healthcare provider. I highly recommend Mr. Aylott to anyone in need of top-quality lower spinal treatment.

I only have praise for Mr Aylott. He really takes the time to listen and after months of being rushed in and out of NHS appointments, I was left feeling very alone, unsupported and lacking in vital information. I was presented with a solution, that after meeting Mr Aylott, he suggested was a 'final resort'. I cannot stress enough, how that was a huge relief. It felt like a huge 'weight' was lifted from me and that I was back in control. Not only did he explain to me what was going on with my spine, he also assured me that I was not doing any further damage, which had been a huge fear of mine. Mr Aylott is thoroughly recommended. I felt that not only is he an expert in his field, he really does care about you as a patient, and only wants the best outcome for you, based on your needs and your situation. I no longer feel alone or unsupported.

Such was the excellent service I received recently from Dr. Aylott at the UK Spine Centre I felt compelled to send the below feedback to his medical secretary: Thank you very much for the excellent and very detailed report from Dr. Aylott which is both reassuring and a valuable summary of my low back condition. I would kindly appreciate if you could pass on my sincere thanks to Dr. Aylott for his professional advice, informative consultation and report, and above all else his empathetic approach in reassuring me that its thankfully not yet time to hang up my various sporting attire which for me is a huge relief… thank you indeed! Wishing Dr. Aylott, his team and of course yourself a wonderful Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year…

I just wanted to let you know that making the decision to come and see you was the best thing has happened. I have been messed about and sent to see so many different people via the NHS and in the end was just let down so badly. My husband couldn't stand seeing me in so much pain anymore that he contacted the Spine Clinic and I was seen by them within a couple of days. Yes, it costs a bit of money, but it has saved me months of waiting for an appointment, months of being in pain and months of being on the wrong medication. I had my appointment, was given an MRI Scan, which the NHS do not like giving out and I had a face to face conversation which is also something that you have to also wait months to get now. 3 hours in the Clinic, everything was done, there and then and it has completely changed my life. I am no longer taking medication that I don't need, I have been given detailed information about what is actually wrong and a plan to go forward. I have been given the correct advice and all the information that I need. All I can say is Thank You, you have changed everything for me and my family. I am now looking forward to the future and I highly recommended doing this, its peace of mind and you don't have to wait. Louise Hill

I saw Mr. Aylott after eight months of being unable to sit down due to severe sciatic pain with no hope of resolution on the NHS. He talked me through my treatment options and two weeks after phoning up to make my first appointment I had a successful microdiscetomy. The process from start to finish was professional and respectful. I now have my life back and am looking forward to regaining my previous levels of activity after the recovery period. Many thanks to the whole team involved in my care.

I had been suffering with Sciatica for several months but in January my disc herniated so badly that I couldn’t walk, stand or sit without extreme pain. I was taking a lot of strong medication and so I booked an appointment to see Caspar Aylott. It was the best thing I could have done-we discussed the scan results and explored the options thoroughly including risks v benefits and I opted for surgery as I was unable to work or do anything at all due to the pain. Mr Aylott performed a L5/S1 microdiscectomy and within a few hours I walked pain-free and unaided from the HSH. It really was miraculous and I was off my post op pain meds just a few days later. Six weeks on I have seen Mr Aylott in clinic for a follow up and I was delighted to be able to thank him for his care and expertise . I have zero pain and fantastic mobility and back to work as a teacher in a busy reception class. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Aylott to anyone suffering with back problems and my only wish is that I had acted sooner. I can’t thank him and his team enough.

I had decompression and stabilisation surgery on 14/06/23 performed by Mr Aylott and found Mr Aylott to be an excellent surgeon, kind, patient and able to explain my symptoms and subsequent treatment in a clear and concise manner. The whole process from diagnosis to surgery was easy and straight forward and I am now pain free after 6 terrible months. I highly recommend Mr Aylott, he is a first rate spinal surgeon and thank him from the bottom of my heart for giving me my life back.

After suffering with debilitating sciatic leg pain for 8 months I contacted Mr Aylott. I had a 3 in 1 appointment at the UK Spine centre .After my initial consultation any apprehension I felt regarding back surgery was dispelled by Mr Aylott’s professionalism and confidence that the procedure he outlined would be of considerable benefit.He explained all aspects of his diagnosis and proposed treatment with clarity that made my decision making process very easy . After decompression surgery I was able to leave the hospital later that day and within days I was able to stop taking all painkillers apart from an occasional paracetamol.The relief since the operation has been remarkable ,I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Aylott for any spinal issues

Severe lower back pain diagnosed by Mr Aylott as fracture of T12 vertebrae and there was presumed osteoporosis. It was explained that the fracture would heal over time but the pain could be relieved by an operation involving cement augmentation (balloon kyphoplasty). No pressure whatsoever to have an operation but opted to do so. Pain relieved practically immediately after op at The Harley Street Hospital in London. Mr Aylott was very thorough, considerate and professional as were his team, the MRI scan staff, the staff at Spa Private Medical in Cheltenham and at the Harley Street Hospital. Also used the local recommended taxi service from home to the hospital. Whole process was made very easy and I would recommend visiting Mr Aylott if you have any spinal condition that requires treatment.

I was aware, almost straightaway, of the benefits of the surgery, skilfully performed by Mr Aylott. The gnawing pain I was experiencing when walking had gone. I had had what he described as a very tight spinal stenosis, which, over the last few years, had made walking increasingly difficult. Now I can walk in the country lanes near where I live without looking, desperately, for somewhere to sit down. It is quite amazing what a difference the surgery has made. It is all due to Mr Aylott's skill, (he is a genius), and to the kind and attentive staff at the Harley Street Hospital, who looked after me so well. His secretarial staff too are knowledgable, kind and helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Aylott and The UK Spine Centre to anyone suffering spinal problems. I shall always be grateful to them. Stuart Pickford

Mr Aylott identified my problem, explained the options I had clearly, identifying the pros and cons of each one. I decided on surgery which he carried out without any fuss, ending well above my expectations. Dealing with Mr Aylott has been a pleasure. He is down to earth, approachable and listens to the patients concerns explaining complex issues in understandable language. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Aylott.

I went round in circles for over 7 yrs with the NHS and in that time in a great deal of pain, and getting nowhere. I went to see Mr Aylott, who was very approachable and pleasant, and put me completely at ease. He took the time to explain my problems in detail in a way I fully understood, being very honest as to what could be done to help me, pointing out the pros and cons of my condition. Consultation and procedures were very quick indeed. I would recommend anyone with spinal problems to see this wonderful man, he has transformed my life, and it was worth every penny. I cannot thank Mr. Aylott enough
