I had severe pain down my left hand side due to a disc in my neck bulging out and trapping a nerve. Dr Malik explained he would replace the disc releasing the nerve. After the surgery the relief was instant and I am now pain free. So very thankful for his skilled surgery!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Irfan Malik, Neurosurgeon, for the exceptional care and expertise he provided during my spinal surgery. Before the procedure, I was suffering from very severe back, hip, and leg pain (over a decade)that made daily life extremely difficult. I was in constant discomfort and struggling just to get through the day. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, Dr. Malik demonstrated not only outstanding professionalism but also genuine compassion and reassurance every step of the way. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answer all my questions, and help me feel confident moving forward with the surgery. I’m now on the path to recovery, finally free from the pain that had taken over my life. Dr. Malik’s calm demeanor, clear communication, and thorough approach gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the process. I truly feel fortunate to have had Dr. Malik as my Neurosurgeon. His work has made a profound difference in my life, and I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of spinal care. Thank you again, Dr. Malik, for giving me a new lease on life. I am forever grateful for your exceptional skill and compassion.

Before surgery, I was in severe pain caused by a large L4/L5 disc herniation. I cannot recommend Irfan Malik highly enough. From the initial consultation, I felt reassured that I was in expert hands. He clearly explained all treatment options and the likely outcomes, and in my case, surgery was the most appropriate path forward. Although the operation was already scheduled, I experienced a sudden and severe flare-up 3 days beforehand. I felt a “pop” in my back that left me barely able to stand or walk beyond the bathroom. I was admitted to hospital earlier than planned, and Mr Malik was willing to come in and operate late on a Friday evening if needed. This meant a great deal to me. Mr Malik performed an endoscopic discectomy and found that the nerve was severely compressed and inflamed. The result was immediate. I woke up with complete relief from the leg pain, and within days I was walking comfortably again. The only way I can describe it is like having a splinter removed. Waking up pain-free felt surreal, but it was real. My recovery has exceeded all expectations. Four weeks on, I feel completely back to normal and have started physiotherapy. Throughout the entire process, Mr Malik was calm, clear, and highly professional, which made a very difficult situation much easier for both me and my partner. I would also add that Fortius Clinic, where the procedure took place, was outstanding. The level of care and comfort was exceptional, more like a five-star hotel than a medical facility. I, along with many others, owe Mr Malik a debt of gratitude that is hard to put into words.

Mr Malik was wonderful, he has paid attention to my symptoms and explored through tests how he could best help me with a plan for every outcome. He identified the damaged nerves that had plagued the last 40 years of my life and used pioneering surgery to obliterate the nerve endings. Recovery began immediately…. And although I have a long way to go I know so am in safe hands

Could not recommend Mr Malik more. He has helped with all my pain and undertook a successful C7 disc replacement. Couteous, understanding and very professional.

Dr Malik was always extremely professional and thorough with his explanations when it came to my back and subsequent surgery. I was always able to see him promptly and when it was decided to have surgery the date available was not a long wait, which when in pain is always a relief! Now post surgery and my pain has greatly reduced.
