Professor Quraishi has performed two procedures on my back for two different issues over the past 5 years. Both issues were severely restricting to my day to day life and both were totally cleared by Nasir allowing me to go back to a normal life. I am now quite clearly biased but have 100% confidence in his abilities and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him.

Prof Quraishi first diagnosed that I had two bulging discs in my neck in early 2019 at BMI The Park hospital. From that point, he clearly explained the options that were open to me but never pushed me towards one more than the other - any treatment was totally my choice. After receiving a series of physiotherapy treatment, I was scanned again and reassessed where it was realised that the discs had not reduced and were now unlikely to improve further. I did still then go on to have two separate nerve-block injections, always discussed and supported by Prof Quraishi before I reached the point where I felt surgery was necessary. Prof Quraishi agreed and set the process in motion but still advising me that I could change my mind if I decided not to go ahead. When a provisional date for surgery at The Park was later discovered not to be possible, he transferred me to The Spire Nottingham where I underwent the procedure to remove the two discs in April 2022. By this point, I had moved away from the Nottingham area but because of the trust I had built with Prof Quraishi, my husband and I made the two hour journey so that I could have this surgery conducted by him.

I had three previous surgical procedures by other surgeons including two fusions one of which was not performed well and left me with worsened symptoms When my symptoms further worsened I was referred to Prof Quraishi for advice and treatment. Prof Quraishi quickly identified the problem and began firstly with conservative interventions, which had never been offered to me before. Unfortunately my symptoms worsened again and Prof Quraishi performed a spinal decompression which went smoothly and I was home the next day Prof Quraishi was the first surgeon to refer me for a course of physio therapy which was a revelation I’m please to say that I am now pain free and no longer need the co codamol or gabapentin that I used extensively for 7 years and life is normal Without question Prof Quraishi changed my life after a very depressingly long period of failed interventions by others I would have no hesitation in referring myself back to Prof Quraishi should the need arise and happily recommend him to others Thank you Prof Quraishi

Having experienced severe problems following prolapsed discs I met with Dr Quraishi for a fresh opinion on my needs. Following an MRI scan he identified the need for surgery which was carried out a short time later. The surgery undertaken has relieved my problem completely and I am absolutely delighted with the results of the surgery he carried out. I walk and move like a regular person again. Dr Quraishi and all the team at Park hospital were fantastic, should I experience any issues in the future there is only one place I will go. I totally recommend Dr Quraishi for his professionalism and skill in dealing with what had been a spinal issue that had severely impacted my quality of life.

Dear Mr Quraishi Thank you so very much for the incredible surgery you performed on my back. So far it is feeling fantastic. No pain sensations in my left leg and only a slight discomfort from my back. I have not had to take any pain killers since Monday morning having been discharged on the Sunday. Please pass on my heartfelt thanks to the rest of your team at the Spire. My very best wishes. Trevor Dodds July 2022
