Mr Mifsud has cared for our son over the last 18 months during treatment for a femur cyst. From the first appointment to surgery, he has been kind, calm and incredibly professional. He has a wonderful way of reassuring young patients, and our son trusted him completely. As parents, placing your child in a surgeon’s hands is a big step, and we are so thankful it was Mr Mifsud. Truly outstanding care.

Mr Mifsud is the most wonderful surgeon / consultant and my son has received the most incredible care from him. He has bounced back from a complex meniscus tear and you would never know anything happened. His bedside manner and personal care is like being with a private hospital. Very grateful.

Absolutely fantastic consultant, very caring and considerate. Always takes his time to explain findings eg, showing xrays. Happy to answer all questions. No question is to small or insignificant. Will always work around you and your family and your needs. The care doesn't stop at the end of the appointment, is always happy to assist where needed.
