Spinal surgery in Surrey

If the nerves in your spine become compressed, this can create pain in your back, hips and legs. These compressed spinal nerves could also cause a tingling sensation or weakness in your legs, making it difficult to walk or perform your normal activities.  

At The Runnymede Hospital, our spinal procedures could restore your independence by removing the pressure on your nerves to relieve your symptoms. Book your appointment online or call a member our team on X to find out more.

At The Runnymede Hospital, your spinal treatment will be led by a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon. Together with a multidisciplinary team of experts, including Anaesthetists, Physiotherapists and Spinal Surgeons, they will investigate your symptoms to establish their cause and build a bespoke treatment programme.  

Treatment might consist of spinal injection therapy to reduce swelling or pain, or physiotherapy sessions to promote movement in your legs.  

But if your symptoms persist or are impacting your quality of life, spinal surgery might be your best option. At The Runnymede Hospital, we have a dedicated team of experts who specialise in this area. They offer a range of spinal procedures, including:  

Spinal fusion surgery starting from £6,270*

Spinal fusion surgery is when two or more of your vertebrae (the bones that form your spinal cord) are joined together with a bone graft. A bone graft is a piece of bone that is sourced from a donor or another area of your body and added to your spine.  

Lumbar spinal decompression starting from £8,451*

Lumbar spinal decompression is typically used to treat compressed nerves from spinal stenosis. This is a condition that causes a narrowing of your spinal canal (the space around your spinal cord). 

Your Surgeon will first create an incision in the middle of your lower back. The muscles in your back are then carefully lifted to provide access to your spine. Specialised surgical instruments are used to remove any tissue that could be putting pressure on your spinal cord and the surrounding nerves.  

Lumbar laminectomy starting from £8,879*

During lumbar laminectomy surgery, your surgeon will make an incision in the middle of your lower back to access your spine and remove the part of your vertebrae (spinal bones) that is putting pressures on your nerves.  

Lumbar microdiscectomy starting from £5,893*

A slipped disc (also known as a herniated or prolapsed disc) occurs when the coating of a disc (that sits between each of your vertebrae or spinal bones) becomes torn. As a result, the inside of this torn disc can spill outwards and press against your surrounding nerves. This can create pain in your lower back, neck, buttocks and legs. A lumbar microdiscectomy is a procedure to correct a slipped disc.
