Mr Saif Ul Islam is professional and kind. He ensures patients understand their treatments. Patients gain much movement and lose pain after his work. Hip replacement is his main and highly valued work.
A lot of time waiting between x-ray and seeing the consultant but this is normal in a busy hospital. Mr Islam is very approachable in his manner and comes across as caring and interested in what you have to say. I've had a hip replacement and I'm very pleased with my results. I am very grateful to the NHS , Mr Islam and his team for making my life a lot more Enjoyable again . Thank you.
Mr. Islam is a brilliant surgeon. He is straight to the point when he has any discussions with you about your treatments and operation. He has a very polite professional manner but at the same time can share some humour, that helps when you are nervous about your op.
Everything about the op and later appointment were so good
First class professional and personal treatment throughout. I could not have asked for better and was totally confident about the outcome of my hip surgery. Mr. Islam’s high standards are maintained by his excellent team.
Lovely Consultant very informative kept me updated all along as I had a few complications prior to my surgery. Had a right hip replacement 7 weeks ago. With Mr Islam and it was very successful after being unable to walk without a zimmer frame I feel I have got my life back and no pain at all.
A reassuring visit. Everything was explained to me with regards to my operation and my recovery.
I was really pleased how I felt ie my mobility vastly improved after the arthrosamid injection
