Steph's Back Pain Journey: Finding Relief After More Than a Year | Fakeeh University Hospital

After suffering with back pain for over a year, Steph decided to explore her options and find out what was really causing it. In this testimonial, she shares her experience at Fakeeh University Hospital and her recovery, 12 weeks on.

Her story:

• More than a year of back pain that wasn't improving, despite seeing various specialists and trying physical therapy
• A decision to look into specialists in Dubai, which led her to Dr. Islam at Fakeeh University Hospital
• A consultation followed by an MRI scan, which confirmed a prolapsed disc and a degenerated disc in her lower back
• Two recommended procedures to address the problem, followed by a three-day hospital stay and recovery
• Now 12 weeks on, feeling well and glad she went ahead with the treatment

In her words:

"I had a very good experience here at Fakeeh University Hospital. The care was very good, the nurses were friendly and helpful, and the follow-up care was great. Twelve weeks post-surgery, I'm very happy with the outcome." Steph
