I had severe pain down my left hand side due to a disc in my neck bulging out and trapping a nerve. Dr Malik explained he would replace the disc releasing the nerve. After the surgery the relief was instant and I am now pain free. So very thankful for his skilled surgery!

Google Reviews
EXCELLENT Based on 71 reviews Ivanna C.2025-06-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t begin to praise Dr. Malik enough for what him and his staff did for me. When I slipped my disc I was completely incapacitated. I was physically unable to stand on my own. The NHS referred me for an MRI that was 6 weeks away which was just not an option. At the time I also had a 5 month old at home, staying in the state I was in just wasn’t an option. My husband did extensive research and came across Dr. Malik. He was able to see me the day after we contacted him, gave me an MRI that evening and was able to fit me in for a nerve block the following morning. Although everything went perfectly it provided minimal relief as the slip was so bad. (Which Dr. Malik informed me may happen) Unfortunately I had to have spinal surgery and I wouldn’t want anyone other than Dr. Malik to do it. His knowledge is beyond anything I could imagine. Not only is he an unbelievably talented surgeon and highly respected in his field but he made sure I understood each and every step he took to get me back on my feet. He also made sure to give me every option allowing me to make the most informed decision. I’m forever grateful for all that he’s done for me. Please, if you’re looking for a expert in this field, see Dr. Malik. You won’t regret it. Mark Buckley2025-05-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently consulted Mr. Malik for acute back pain. He was professional, thorough, and clearly very knowledgeable in his field. He took the time to explain the cause of my pain and discussed treatment options in a clear and reassuring manner. I felt well cared for throughout the consultation and would highly recommend him to all. arslan rehman2025-05-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Mr. Malik, Neurosurgeon, highly enough. He recently performed surgery on my mother to treat severely compressed nerves and a slipped disc, and the entire experience has been absolutely outstanding from start to finish. The surgery went smoothly, and Mr. Malik kept me fully informed throughout the process. He took the time to call me personally as soon as the procedure was over, which meant so much to me and my family. His approachable, friendly, and professional manner gave us complete confidence at every stage. Thanks to Mr. Malik’s skill and expertise, my mum is now feeling so much better. The difference in her comfort and mobility is remarkable. A big thank you also to Rebecca, Mr. Malik’s secretary, for her efficiency and support. She was on top of all the admin and communication, making the whole process seamless and stress-free. Overall, the care and service we received was exceptional. Mr. Malik and his team truly go above and beyond. Lindsay Crowther2025-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Gail LE Milliere2025-05-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Malik - he has been excellent during my post spinal fixation surgery. He listened to my concerns and was understanding during my recovery process, clearly explaining where my body was during the last 2.5 years. Jonathan Walk2025-04-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All the staff at the Clinic, were extremely helpful and kind whilst remaining diligent and professional. C C2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I saw irfan Malik couple of week ago beacause of my spine problem. He is the one of the best spinal surgeon in london. Charlotte D2025-03-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I hobbled into Mr Malik’s office for our initial appointment, and saw he was wearing Hoka’s, I knew I’d found my surgeon! I was seen on the Friday evening, and was added to his operating list for the following day. He made the arrangements with the anaesthetist there and then, and Rebecca, his practice manager was able to quickly arrange my admission for the following morning and details for my insurance provider. The whole experience was slick, I am so thankful for the speed at which everything was organised. The difference in Mr Malik and a previous surgeon I had seen about my sciatica was second to none. He listened and explained everything so thoroughly. When I woke up after the op, all my sciatic pain was gone immediately, and my recovery has been great so far! If I ever needed anything doing to my back again, I would definitely be coming back. From appointment to operation in less than 24hrs…. How fantastic! Anshaal Chawdhery2025-03-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had experiencing pain for a while and was seen by Mr Malik who treated me with the utmost professionalism and care. His expertise and knowledge put me at ease while he provided the best treatment I could have hoped for. I am beyond grateful to Mr Malik and his team for the experience and can’t recommend him highly enough! Thank you always Colette Barry2025-03-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After extensive research we are so happy we chose Mr Malik to operate on our daughter.
