Reviews
Doctor Quraishi listened intently and with great understanding when I spoke of my long term leg and back pain which had impacted on my ability to walk and undertake normal every day activities.
Doctor Quraishi made me aware of his thoughts as to the cause, action to reduce or iliminate my problem and possible risks of the procedure. He also inquired if I had any further questions or concerns.
I am very delighted to report that the investigation/confirmation of cause and remedial treatment suggested and undertaken by Doctor Quraishi was both timely and completely effective both from the physical and mental (worry and concern) viewpoints.
The service provided throughout was first class and I have no difficulty in recommending treatment by Doctor Quraishi should you have similar health problems.
Prof. Quraishi was really excellent, professional and friendly . I completely trusted his judgment at every step . He spent a lot of time in the consultation and took the time to explain every step of the operation and answer all of my questions and the questions of my very concerned family. He also answered each and every email we sent and was very supportive the whole time. He was truly concerned about my wellbeing and made sure that the conditions for the operation were optimum even if it meant having to postpone surgery. After surgery he saw me everyday even on weekends and made sure everything was perfect for me. He was very reassuring and made sure I was well taken care of. I feel truly lucky to be his patient, he is really an extraordinary person.
The service provided was excellent. All aspects of the surgery was explained and the procedure worked, massively improving my mobility.
I was extremely pleased with Prof. Quraishi's diagnosis and surgery, especially when he
agreed to examine extra vertebrae and operated when he discovered it was needed.
That is going above and beyond what's normally expected.
He has been polite, courteous and put me at ease.
Prof. Quraishi kept me well informed throughout the whole process, explaining things in layman terms if it sounded complicated.
I consider I had the most excellent of treatment which improved my life considerably, I had been in extreme pain for a considerable time and this was totally relieved by the spinal decompression operation. I can now walk distances without a frame and am tall and upright once more. Thank you Prof. Quraishi.
I like the way Dr Quraishi was open about the likely outcome following surgery and he was honest about potential side effects.
Following the surgery, I was reviewed as I had not recovered as quickly as hoped I was given a further appointment for review which I felt was helpful and reassuring.
