Mr Malek recommended a hip replacement for me after being in great pain for nearly three years. I could not wait any longer on the NHS waiting list. I had the surgery four weeks ago and I am now leading a normal life. He encouraged me to start Physio immediately and keep active. Crutches gone after two weeks, in the Gym after three, and now back to work. Amazing team, great care, and positivity through out.
So looking forward to a pain free Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year thanks to him and his team. Thank You so much.
I had hip surgery recently by Prof. Malek. What a lovely genuine caring surgeon, totally professional throughout consultation and treating process. Was made to feel very comfortable and kept informed by Roman and the team who were very welcoming.
Prof Malek skill second to none.
My recovery progressing well for which I am extremely grateful. Thank you.

I had a left hip replacement with Professor Malek at the end of March 2025 at the Spire hospital. What a lovely, genuine, caring surgeon he is, totally professional throughout the consultation and treatment process. Can totally recommend. Thank you Mr Malek.
We are ordinary people whose active retirement was threatened by both knee and hip problems. We used savings for the two operations, both performed by Prof. Malek and his team. It was worth every penny. First class medical expertise was given on both occasions. It was delivered with care, concern and commitment. Follow ups were thorough and very helpful. Care was taken at all times to ensure the best possible outcomes. Everyone was friendly at all times. We are very grateful.
I found Professor Malek to be friendly, jovial, enthusiastic and professional. He put me totally at ease after explaining the procedure (and the risks involved). After surgery He explained how my recovery would progress which gave me the confidence press on with my physio. I can only assume that Professor Malek's skill is second to none, as my recovery is progressing at a fast rate, and for that I am extremely grateful. Thank you.
