Mr Michael Mokawem
Consultant Spinal Surgeon
MBChB, FRCS (Tr&Orth)
"Spire Bushey is a first class facility, extremely well situated, enabling me to provide an excellent standard of care to patients at both the outpatient diagnostic centre and the hospital."
Specialises in
- Complex and minimally invasive spinal surgery
- Back pain management
- Disc prolapse and sciatica
- Cervical stenosis and spinal deformity
- Sacrolliac joint pain
I specialise exclusively in spinal surgery with a special interest in minimally invasive surgery when appropriate. I treat back pain, sciatica, disc problems, deformity and fractures.
I specialise in all aspects of spinal surgery with a particular interest in complex adult and paediatric spinal surgery. I advise on non operative and operative management, allowing patients to make fully informed decisions. I use minimally invasive techniques, computer navigated surgery and traditional open techniques.
I completed two prestigious spinal surgery fellowships: The National Spine Fellowship at Leeds Teaching Hospitals as well as a Minimally Invasive and Complex Spine Surgery Fellowship at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore. These fellowships covered the whole spectrum of spinal surgery.
I am passionate about teaching and am a faculty member for the Royal College of Surgeons of England's Advanced Trauma Life Support and Training the Trainers courses.
