Calm and reassuring throughout the surgeon was approachable and and very welcoming. Mr Naqui was the ultimate professional carrying out my operation using the highest professional standards. In the words of Tina Turner ".Simply the BEST". My follow up visits to see the physio,s were extremely succesful as they took great care in showing me how to exercise my arthritic hand increasing it,s movement and overall mobility by 80%. Have no fear or worries as the team from booking in to being shown to and around my room to being taken to the operating theatre where everything was explained to me to having my operation was pain free. Followed by a nice rest in the recovery room and a laugh and a joke with the nurse who took me back to my room where a nice chicken salad waited for me.

I had a hand injury couple of months back and was referred to Dr Naqui. I am so glad to have been referred to such a brilliant specialist like him with so much experience in this field. Dr Naqui is one of the best hand specialists I have seen and he was so friendly and made me feel at ease at the appointment when I saw him for review. I would totally recommend Dr Naqui as he knows what he is talking about and he has years of knwoledge, but besides this he is a polite and calm doctor that would listen to his patients and do what is best for them!

The professionalism and skill shown my Mr Naqui was the best clinical care I have ever received. I had been in a severe motorcycle accident and had potentially life altering injuries. Mr Naqui explained clearly all the pros and cons of the different surgical operations and gave me great confidence in his ability. He has a very calming, relaxing manner and put my concerns at ease. The surgery was successful and I am thanks to Mr Naqui I can get my life back on track. He has changed my life for the better.
