Patients Success Stories
I had the privilege of being treated by Dr. Irfan Malik for my spinal surgery, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the initial consultation to post-operative care, he was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate.
I had back pain and later it went to my knees and whole leg. Dr Irfan was able to diagnose what issue I had. He detailed explained my issue and he had given me options to avoid surgery. I tried every alternative but nothing worked and I had to go for surgery. Dr. Irfan took good care of me and was very helpful and patience with my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Irfan for consulting if you have issues with back pain or any spinal issues.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I recently had a microdiscectomy at L5/S1 with Mr Malik and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. His professionalism, warmth, and expertise put me completely at ease throughout the process. I felt fully supported throughout and had absolute trust in him and his team. I’m very grateful for the care I received and would recommend Mr Malik without hesitation.
As a professional colleague of Mr Malik’s, I have watched him perform many flawless procedures in the past and now, I was fortunate enough to have Mr Malik perform my own very complex spinal procedure in January. He is, without a doubt, a phenomenally skilled and attentive surgeon. After my surgery, Mr Malik and his team followed my recovery closely and, thanks to their support, I was back on my feet much quicker than we had all expected.
When I hobbled into Mr Malik’s office for our initial appointment, and saw he was wearing Hoka’s, I knew I’d found my surgeon! I was seen on the Friday evening, and was added to his operating list for the following day. He made the arrangements with the anaesthetist there and then, and Rebecca, his practice manager was able to quickly arrange my admission for the following morning and details for my insurance provider. The whole experience was slick, I am so thankful for the speed at which everything was organised. The difference in Mr Malik and a previous surgeon I had seen about my sciatica was second to none. He listened and explained everything so thoroughly. When I woke up after the op, all my sciatic pain was gone immediately, and my recovery has been great so far! If I ever needed anything doing to my back again, I would definitely be coming back. From appointment to operation in less than 24hrs…. How fantastic!

Osteoarthritis of the spine can range from mild stiffness and discomfort to persistent pain and reduced mobility. In more severe cases, it may cause nerve compression, leading to numbness, tingling, or weakness. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help manage symptoms and maintain quality of life.
A full spine MRI typically takes 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the imaging protocol and whether contrast is required. The scan examines the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions of the spine to help identify conditions such as disc problems, spinal stenosis, and other abnormalities.
Yes, a lumbar spine MRI can detect suspicious abnormalities, including tumours in the vertebrae, spinal cord, or surrounding tissues. It can help identify possible primary or metastatic cancer, although further tests or a biopsy may be needed to confirm the diagnosis.
Living with spine pain can affect daily activities, mobility, and quality of life. Endoscopic spine surgery is a minimally invasive treatment option for suitable patients, using small incisions and specialised instruments to relieve nerve compression. It may help reduce pain, minimise tissue damage, and support a faster recovery compared with some traditional surgical approaches.
Sports spinal injuries can occur due to sudden impacts, falls, overuse, or improper techniques during physical activity. They may cause back pain, muscle strain, or nerve irritation.
