After a referral from my local GP, I was given an appointment with Mr Naqui within three weeks.
On my first visit for my consultation with Mr Naqui he was extremely interested in my issues with my thumb, which I had been suffering with.
He recommended that I had a scan on my thumb and was able to proceed with the scan immediately on that day.
When I returned for the results of the scan, which again was very quick, it showed that I had broken a small bone in my thumb.
Mr Naqui then recommended a conservative form of treatment with a steroid injection. However if this procedure did not reduce the pain that I was feeling, he put a treatment plan in place for myself moving forward.
I received the most professional, speedy care and treatment under Mr Naqui.

I have just undergone Carpel Tunnel Release and 12 months aftercare from Mr. Naqui and his team. All in all it was a trouble free experience. Mr Naqui carried out the surgery on a Saturday morning. He did his best to re assure me about the process and to explain what was happening.
I didn't feel particularly nervous during the surgery as I couldn't feel anything other than pressure around my wrist.
I had follow up appointments with Mr Naqui and several physio appointments.
Today I have been discharged from the hospital. I am totally pain free and have full use and feeling back in my hand and fingers.
Thank you to Mr. Naqui and the team. Excellent job!

Seen Mr Naqui regarding my hands. He was professional and sent me for some tests. I didn’t have to wait long for either the test or a follow up appointment with Mr Naqui. Very pleased with the treatment received.

Mr Naqui was extremely clear and professional in our consultations and did a fantastic job in treating my injury surgically.
I had a very poor prognosis when I first approached Mr Naqui, but am happy with my recovery following surgery. Several medical professionals with whom I have subsequently met have remarked at the skill with which my operation was performed and have noted that I would likely have a considerably reduced range of movement in the affected joint had a less skilled surgeon undertaken the task.
I strongly recommend him.

Hands are taken for granted until an accident or old age ailments occur. Thank goodness there is a specialist such as Mr Naqui, he is a caring, empathic person who from the first consultation puts the patient at ease with his professionalism, explaining procedures with a combination of 'real world' terminology (and of course some medical jargon) helping the patient understand exactly what will happen and the outcome.
I am extremely grateful to Mr Naqui and his excellent team for a successful operation and wonderful aftercare, I shall wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who needs help. Thankyou to all concerned.
