My surgeon for 20 years. Has taken care of my sad and sorry back for all these years. Gave me a liveable life. So sad to talk to him today and learn he is retiring. Will be greatly missed by all his patients I am sure.

Had spinal fusion surgery many years ago as a result of a car accident, but gradually over the years the back pain was getting unbearable, Dr McCombe recommended a PSO and 6 level fusion, a very complicated procedure, after a 12 hour operation due to complications from the previous surgery and a longer stay in hospital than expected I'm finally pain free for the first time in years. Thanks to Dr McCombe, he is an old school no nonsense surgeon but clearly very skilful at his trade, I would highly recommend him

I visited this Specialist 3 times; out “it’s complicated” sent for additional EOS scan: That was January 2020, I never heard from him again. He was recently asked by Physio @ RBH about my case; his response “I can’t remember the details” yes he has written records of my attendance. I wouldn’t let this man operate on anyone.

Excellent pre and post-surgery treatment and advice. Pleasant and straight to the point which I've appreciated every time I've been to see Dr McCombe for the 2 back and 1 neck surgeries he has performed on me. All 3 surgeries were successful due to his encouragement, knowledge and professional treatment and excellent personal attention. I cannot fault him nor his 'bedside manner'. His receptionist is also professional, no fuss, efficient and very helpful.

In 2004 I had a double disc replacement after 15 years of pain, time off work, being unable to engage in physical activity etc. I was back to work full time within six weeks and at six months I played 18 holes of golf without issue. I have never had time off work due to this issue since. However, I had an incident at work and hurt my back/hip and returned to Dr McCoombe. All investigations show after 9 years my discs are all in place and not the issue. He was also able to diagnose a compressed cluneal nerve. His expertise and years of dedication help to address an issue that may take others to diagnose a very long time if ever. Thank you Dr McCoombe.

This so called Doctor needs reminding that patients are people and not a slab of meat. Bedside manner is zilch. Do not recommend this Dr.
