All very clear and surgery result beyond expectation

Mr Malik performed a Lumbar Decompression and Spinal Fusion operation about three weeks ago. Before the operation I could not walk for more than half a mile before suffering numbness in my feet and lower legs, necessitating an immediate stop and rest. The operation was a complete success. Sensitivity to my feet and legs returned immediately after the procedure. I can now walk for several miles without any sign of numbness or discomfort. I am now building up my strength before physiotherapy begins in two weeks' time. Throughout the whole process, pre- and post-operation, I found Mr Malik very willing to discuss the treatment and to answer the many questions which arose. He is very understanding and courteous, and I would commend him to anyone facing the same or similar operation.

I had my disk surgery with Dr. Irfan Mallik. From day 1 he knew what I was dealing with. Instead of straight surgery he tried all the option to avoid it. He took all the effort to provide me quick access to all the help I needed. The best part is he remembered how I was walking on the first day and how I easily walking after the surgery. I really appreciate and highly recommend Dr. Irfan Malik.

I had an online consultation with Mr Malik for my daughter's MRI findings of a pituitary microadenoma. He listened to me attentively and was very reassuring. He told me that no surgical intervention is required and she only needs medicines to take care of this. I found him to be very kind and compassionate. Highly recommend Mr Malik as a professional and great human being!

Mr Malik was very honest about my care. He explained everything in detail and allowed me to ask questions making sure that I understand what I about to go through. He came to see me before I was discharged home making sure that I was happy with the service I received.

He is absolutely brilliant in what he does. He got rid of the pain that I had been suffering from for 14 months. It took only about 2 months from our first appointment to the day of surgery.
