Mr Arif Gul

Mr Gul has always been amazing from when I first see him! Told me the pros and cons of what he was able to do for me and he never gave up trying to help me back to health again! He truly is an amazing man. He gave me back my life I thought I’d never get back because of the constant pain I was in

As always Mr Gul was very polite and friendly and helpful explained exactly what he had done clearly.

I had spinal decompression after two and a half years of leg weakness and a period of intense pain. I was really lucky to meet Mr. Gul. He had the answers and reassurance straight away. I had been seen by other doctors with varying levels of care and I had become almost resigned that I had lost all the strength in my legs in a very short space of time. I would squat 150kg regularly then all of a sudden I couldn't lift even the bar and I was struggling to get up the stairs. I was worried, anyone would be. For me, the nerves in the spine were being compressed and it was causing this weakness. I had a period of intense pain lasting a couple of weeks. I couldn't walk, I couldn't do anything; I've never been in pain like that. A&E had no idea what to and I was sent away with paracetamol and antibiotics. I left A&E almost on my hands and knees. I met Mr. Gul, some injections were successful but didn’t last, it was clear only surgery was going to fix it. My view on this kind of thing is that if you have a very positive attitude to getting near to as 100% fit as possible, if you have this attitude and you were fit and active before the surgery, you'll recover; quickly too. Mr. Gul sees this from the patients' perspective. He was involved in a car accident and had emergency surgery. His rehabilitation was scheduled for a year and he cut this time frame much shorter through the attitude I’m referring to. I would recommend reading his book which he wrote on this experience, it’ll also give you a measure of the character and quality of the man. Charlotte handles his office, she’l...

I cannot express my gratitude to Mr Arif Gul for the excellent treatment he carried out on my spine. He has a very pleasant manner and clearly explained the treatment and risks of the surgery in simple language which I understood. I would highly recommend Mr Arif Gul to anyone needing spinal surgery and am sincerely grateful to him.

I cannot fault the treatment I received from Mr Gul. He understood my symptoms and was totally transparent in my treatment plan. A true gentleman and cannot thank him enough.
