When I met Dr Nikolic I was desperate for treatment and very ill. I had been waiting for the best part of a year to be seen and the consultant at my local NHS hospital failed to do anything for me (despite my GP fighting my corner and referring me three times). I felt totally abandoned and hopeless. I was recommended Dr Nikolic by another healthcare provider and from the moment we were introduced I knew that I was in safe hands. He was absolutely familiar with my condition and had treated it on many occasions. Although I am not absolutely 100% yet, for what he has done I am immeasurably grateful. I could not live a life at all before I was treated by him and now I can manage to do so many more things. I am hopeful that with physiotherapy and other affiliated treatments, this will improve over time. Without the treatment I received from Dr Nikolic I do not know what would have happened to me.

Mr Aftab has the special and rare ability to treat you like a human, not just a patient, and that means the world to me. I feel immensely lucky to have found Mr Aftab. You can google any doctor, and if you search Mr Aftab’s accolades, it is obvious that he is one of the best orthopaedic surgeons not just in the UK, but in the world. I don’t have to specify that he is a master of his craft, it is all available online. But what those qualifications and articles don’t tell you is how compassionate he is, how much he cares for each and every case he reviews and treats, and how deeply it matters to him that the patient walks out with the best possible care they could’ve received. I have been under the care of Mr Aftab for over a year now, he has treated me with 3 nerve root injections. I am now just recovering and soon will have surgery (Microdiscectomy) performed by him. This is a decision we have made together, and not something I have been forced with or been made to decide by myself. Before any and every procedure, however big or small, Mr Aftab educates me on the benefits and risks and never pushes for an outcome. He truly believes that it is the patient that can make the best choices for themselves and gives me all of information and help I need so I can get the best outcome, whether it is pain management or surgery or just a consultation. Recently, while sorting out my insurance, I was briefly matched with another surgeon, who refused to accept my sudden rise pain concerns, and flat out refused to sign off on an MRI that I thought I needed, I was made to feel like I was at fault for being in so much pain even seeking that surgeon’s opinion. Thankfully, shortly afterwards my insurance was sorted and I immediately contacted Mr Aftab again. Even though he sees dozens of patients each week, he distinctly remembered the exact timeline and details of my case, and just based off my email, promptly signed off on an MRI without me even having to plead for one. It turned out that my condition had Infact progressed and the MRI made it clear that surgery was now an option I needed to consider seriously. Had I not received this care and that too so fast, I would’ve had to endure much more pain. He also offered me an epidural injection the very next day to try and alleviate the pain until my case is reviewed and approved for surgery, which I am confident will go well. I am an otherwise healthy athlete who has suffered an unfortunate accident that has led to a chronic condition. It is not just that I am in debilitating pain, but it is my mental health that has suffered so much, and also affects my partner too who is caring for me. So more than anything, it matters to me that Mr Aftab cares so much, answers all of my questions, and makes me aware of all possible treatment options. He truly treated me with respect and love, and showed me so much compassion. I am truly grateful for the treatment I have received. On a personal note, Mr Aftab is always positive, he is full of energy and really loves what he does - it fills me with confidence that I am in the best of hands under his care. I feel safe and comforted, there’s literally nothing more I can ask from a surgeon.

Mr Chatterjee is welcoming. He takes the time to listen to the problem and has a sympathetic and professional manner. His approach is very sensible.

Pleasure to meet him. Explained his concerns clearly and was easy to speak to

Mr Lee very clearly explained his diagnosis of my situation and the possible treatment options, setting out indicators for further surgery and potential benefits and risks. He was compassionate and friendly and, combined with his deep knowledge of the spine and associated neurology and mechanics, I received exactly what I had hoped for from the consultation - and more.

An outstanding specialist and professional in every way.Dr Ghei has excellent skills medically and her communication to me at all times about my health issues were superb.

Dr. Yeh is is very patient person and tried his best to explain to me what my problem was and what would be the best solution for me. Everything was very clear after my second visit. He was also very professional in terms of what tests need to be done to identify the real problem causing my backpain. After seeing the results, referred me to a very good specialist for physical therapy. He is following up with me on a regular basis to make sure that I am getting better and my treatment goes well. Thank you!

Very kind, caring, and knowledgeable. Able to answer my questions and provide alternative pathways of care.

Mr Bull inspires confidence. He explained the issues and options clearly and like a human being! I felt listened to and able to ask questions. I haven’t yet had the procedure he advised but I believe it is the right course of action at this stage.

Mr. Barazi has an excellent bedside manner. He really takes the time to understand by asking a lot of questions. Scan reports are thoroughly explained. He gives a lot of consideration when recommending a treatment and course of action. Mr. Barazi is a sincere and compassionate professional, an expert in his field and I highly recommend him.
