Mr Naqui was very clear in explaining the nature and treatment for my condition (trigger finger) and also in what the follow up would be. Manchester Integrated Care should also be highly commended for the service they provide in assisting patients from GP referral to hospital / consultant appointment at a time and place which is prompt and accessible.

I fractured my scaphoid in October last year. After five weeks it was confirmed as none union fracture. At this point I booked an appointment with Mr Naqui. He explained that surgery would be required and booked me in for the next day. The surgery was carried out and was a complete success. I am now having physiotherapy with Laura. My whole experience with Mr Naqui and his team has been first class. I was given great advice and all has turned out well Many thanks.

Over the last 6 months i have been under the care of Mr Zaf Naqui for RH & LH Dupuytrens Contracture and LH Carpel Tunnel. The operations to control the conditions were all carried out professionally, successfully and with very little pain in the weeks after the operation. I would recommend Mr Naqui for his skill, knowledge and expertise.

Since being referred by my GP Dr Naf Naqui has dealt with my case. I have nothing but admiration for his professional surgeon skills. I presented myself with a very painful wrist injury after a fall at my place of work. It was a very painful and extremely disabling injury to my right wrist . I had sustained quite severe tears to the tendons in my wrist . The injury had kept me from returning to my employment which involves a lot of physical ,heavy manual work .As I am right handed the work was t heavy for me to return for over 9 months recovery. The recovery is all down to the diagnosis after an MRI Scan revealed quite severe trauma to my wrist tendons after my unfortunate accident at my place of work. Dr Zaf Naqui ,operated via keyhole surgery to repair quite extensive damage to my wrist tendons. I can only thank him for helping me to return to my employment at full capacity after only 2 months of his surgical procedure to repair the badly damaged tendons in my wrist . I would not hesitate to recommend him as your hand wrist surgeon ,My recovery after his procedures are outstanding. I have no pain ,full use f my wrist and hand functions ,and most importantly to myself ,I have returned to my employment at full capacity . Dr Zaf Naqui ,is not only a brilliant surgeon ,he is a caring ,professional and a fantastic person to have had the pleasure to meet . Lawton Berry
