All staff were very kind and attentive towards me. my experience was made as well as it could have been.
Mr Malik did a great job on my spinal surgery. Replacement disc and fusion.
Everything was explained clearly in the lead up to the surgery. The surgery itself was smooth and I felt comfortable and in safe hands at all times. Following the surgery communication has been clear. I’d highly recommend Mr Irfan Malik to anyone experiencing disc related issues.
After suffering with sciatica for over 8 months, I finally found Mr Malik after researching the best spinal surgeons in London. From reading his reviews to meeting him at my first consultation, I felt confident I’d found the right surgeon. After two consultations, I went ahead with a microdiscectomy under Mr Malik’s care. One month on, I’m recovering well and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. If you’re struggling with a spinal condition, don’t delay seeking help like I did. Mr Malik is an exceptionally skilled, experienced and leading spinal neurosurgeon who made me feel confident every step of the way. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
Impeccable treatment and support throughout by everyone.

The surgery itself was a tremendous success, and I am truly grateful for the skill and precision that Dr. Malik and his team brought to my treatment. Equally impressive was the dedication and support provided by his entire team. Every member of staff treated me with kindness, respect, and genuine care, ensuring that I felt comfortable, informed, and supported at every stage of my recovery. Their commitment went far beyond medical treatment—they showed genuine concern for my wellbeing and recovery, making what could have been a very difficult experience much easier to navigate. The level of teamwork, professionalism, and compassion displayed by everyone involved was truly outstanding.

Read moreMr Malik was great during my recent procedure. Within a week of meeting Mr Malik I was in the operating theatre and my pain was gone after suffering for months. Throughout the process Mr Malik reassured me on what was best for me long term and made me feel better about any concerns I had. I could not recommend enough if you’re suffering with back pain
