Over the last several years, Dupuytren’s caused the little finger on my left hand to contract considerably, leading to discomfort and inconvenience in many areas, not least when playing the keyboards and piano. I live and work on an American Naval Station in Spain, where I was diagnosed, but no surgeons are qualified here to do the surgery. Rather than go to a Spanish hospital and face a language barrier, I chose to research consultants in England, and found much positive feedback and many recommendations for Mr. Naqui. From the outset, Mr. Naqui and Ms. Clark were incredibly helpful and accommodating. I was even able to consult with Mr. Naqui remotely before and after the surgery. The surgery itself went very smoothly. Mr. Naqui and the team at Spire were fantastic and quickly eased my apprehension. After the procedure I experienced no pain and minimal discomfort. After the procedure I traveled back to Spain, where I had the stitches removed. I then traveled to the States for several weeks, where I had several sessions with and occupational therapist. All the time Mr. Naqui and the team at Spire were there to answer questions and to consult virtually. I had the operation on July 8, 2022, and now, on September 7, I still cannot believe the results. The surgery was a real life-changing experience for me. It gave me back the dexterity and flexibility I was lacking. Most importantly for me, I was once more able to play music, my biggest passion. I can not thank Mr. Naqui and his team enough. I wholeheartedly recommend his services and have complete trust in his skill and expertise.

I was referred and later diagnosed with arthritis of the wrist and had steroid injections for this. The injections worked and I am currently pain free. The whole process ran very smoothly, and the communication was thorough and clear. Overall, a very professional experience

The whole process from a GP referral to a hand clinic through to operation was quick , pain free and straightforward. Mr.Naqui was professional and empathetic and provided me with all the details concerning my condition , rehabilitation as well as any future issues. I appreciate the intervention undertaken on my hand by Mr. Naqui and am extremely pleased with the outcome.

I was referred to Mr Naqui after waiting a significant amount of time on the NHS for a tendon rupture in my thumb. It was my first surgical procedure and very nervous however Mr Naqui was truly lovely and extremely patient. He very methodically explained the procedure and the recovery path, allaying any fears i had. I couldn't recommend him highly enough

Finger joint pain I suffered with an extremely painful finger joint. I would watch TV with a bag of frozen peas wrapped around the finger. A full night's sleep was impossible. My GP - whilst sympathetic- led me to believe that nothing could be done. Fortunately I was referred to Mr Naqui and his team. He suggested a knuckle replacement!! Post op - I'm completely pain free. Peas are for eating and a full night's sleep possible. There seems to be little awareness of this procedure so I feel very lucky that I met up with Mr Naqui and his professional caring team. Special thanks to Donna who was always at the end of the phone!
