On the 21.01.2021 I was admitted to the Queen’s Hospital (Amber A ward) with broken right leg. After X-ray and CT scan had been done doctor Asif Parkar came to me to explain them in a way I understood. He told me that I have multiple fractures of tibia and fibula and the complexity of the fracture. He informed me that a surgery was necessary and a metal work will be done. On the 22nd of January 2021 I had the surgery, after over 3 hours surgery doctor Parkar put all the pieces of my bones together. The next day I was ready for discharge, but before I left the hospital doctor Parkar came to check up on me, we talked about surgery, my concerns and future rehabilitation. Since then, I meet doctor Parkar in the clinic where we discuss a progress I have made. Every time I go for the follow up appointment, he is friendly, patient, and answers all my questions. I have always been treated with respect, dignity and compassion. Thank you.

Dr Asif was very helpful and stayed on constant contact with my daughter and kept her updated during these covid times. I felt safe and secure in his hands.

I was transferred to Mr Parker for a total knee replacement due to the covid situation and theatre time. I was under Mr Ahmed Ali. I believe these 2 surgeons work together. My case was explained to Mr Parkar because of historical information. I was admitted on 5th November and had my surgery the same day. I was up and out of bed walking within an hour of returning to ward. I had a comfortable night and returned home that day. Apart from quite heavy bruising due to a tornicay on upper leg my pain was manageable with standard pain killers. I was completely happy with my treatment and would recommend him for this kind of surgery. I had minimal contact with Mr Parkar, but was very happy with my treatment. My recovery has gone well and I am now pain free.

My experience was very positive from beginning to end. Mr Parkar was very reassuring and explained everything in detail and my after care was second to none. Can’t thank Mr Patkar and his team enough.
