What can I say about Dr Khalid Malik that hasn't been said already? I had my second total knee replacement on the 16th September 2024, lucky for me it was carried out by Dr Malik, again he talked me through what would happen in the operation, asked whether I had any questions about the operation, fears and his opinion how he saw the outcome going. After having the first operation I had know worries about the outcome as this surgeon is outstanding in his field. Friends who have had the same operation their by different surgeons always told me that the second operation would be worse than the first! More painful, longer to recover etc... I can honestly say that has not been the case for me, my recovery was quicker, pain was almost not there, I was even able to bend my knee by 90 degrees the day after my operation! in fact I was able to use the crutches the evening of my operation without any difficulty, that was down to Dr Malik's skills and his excellent team. I cannot thank him enough, he is simply the Best.

When I met Mr. Malik for our first consultancy session he immediately made me feel at ease and his enthusiasm that he could help shone through. Having had previous knee surgery in 2002 (Post a motorbike accident) I was unsure if further surgery was possible. He explained all the options thoroughly and having viewed a CT scan agreed to perform total knee replacement surgery. The procedure was explained to me in great detail and with the support of his team the surgery went completely to plan. Mr.Malik even came to check on me at 9pm in the evening post operation. All the pre and post op care has been of the highest standard and I cannot recommend Mr.Malik more highly. Matt Harding

I had my first total hip replacement at a relatively young age, at the Conquest under the care of Mr. Khalid Malik at the end of October 2023. He talked me through the procedure and answered any questions i had. I was admitted and settled in. I didn't have to wait long before going down for the operation. Once awake (after a spinal and sedation) i realised the arthritic pain had disappeared almost straight away and just left me with the healing discomfort. I was on my feet really quickly afterwards and by 6 weeks was walking unaided. It made such a difference to my daily life. So you can imagine how thrilled i was getting an appointment at 2 weeks notice for my other THR in June 2024 only 7 months after the first. This time it was at Sussex Premier Health. Again the care was fantastic from both Mr. Malik and the team. This time i felt so good afterwards that i was in work meetings via Teams from my hospital room. Within 2 weeks i was walking totally unaided and at 4 back at work and driving. Cheesy as it sounds, and this is what i told Mr. Malik today at my final appointment, this has been truly life changing. To do things and then suddenly stop and think 'wow i couldn't do this before' i have absolutely no pain and my range of movement is back to what it was before i was diagnosed. In the best possible way, i hope to not have to meet Mr. Malik again as he did the most outstanding job, however...... if i ever need new knees he will most definitely be the surgeon i would choose.

On the 9th April, 2024, I had a total knee replacement at the Nuffield Hospital in Woking, my Surgeon was Mr Khalid Malik. I cannot speak highly enough of Mr Malik. On the occasions pre surgery and post surgery when I saw Mr Malik he was very reassuring, leaving me in no doubt about procedures and what I should expect. He answered all my questions with patience and at no time did I feel that he was in a rush. As for my new knee - it is amazing, I had very little pain and at nine weeks I can move freely without the support of crutches, my leg is straight and at my last physio session I could bend it to a degree of 120% - my physiotherapist has been very impressed with the amount of movement in the joint. I can only say thank you Mr. Malik. Having anticipated a lengthy, painful few months I have had just the opposite and am now able to look forward to a pain free summer. Alison Davies
