Naffis believes that not everyone needs to have an operation and can often be managed with treatments that are not invasive. He will see and assess you and ensure that he is able to understand what the problem is and explain this to you. Following discussions you should have a plan for you to improve and treat the problem that you have. He is skilled in a range of spinal treatments including minimally invasive procedures and can treat problems of trapped nerves, disc problems, trauma, worn joints, instability and sport related problems. He will be happy to discuss these in detail with you as he thinks it is important that you are always fully informed of your treatment and what other treatments are available.
Mr Naffis can see and consult on children of all ages. Whilst most young children can be managed without surgery, when it is required, he undertakes this at The Princess Margaret Hospital for children aged 3 and above.
