I recently consulted Mr. Malik for acute back pain. He was professional, thorough, and clearly very knowledgeable in his field. He took the time to explain the cause of my pain and discussed treatment options in a clear and reassuring manner. I felt well cared for throughout the consultation and would highly recommend him to all.

I had my disk surgery with Dr. Irfan Mallik. From day 1 he knew what I was dealing with. Instead of straight surgery he tried all the option to avoid it. He took all the effort to provide me quick access to all the help I needed. The best part is he remembered how I was walking on the first day and how I easily walking after the surgery. I really appreciate and highly recommend Dr. Irfan Malik.

What Patients Are Saying About Us
Clearly Very Knowledgeable!
Mark Buckley
I Am Now Pain Free!
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.

Thoroughly Recommend Mr Malik!
I would thoroughly recommend Mr Malik – he has been excellent during my post spinal fixation surgery. He listened to my concerns and was understanding during my recovery process, clearly explaining where my body was during the last 2.5 years.
