I first saw Dr Quraishi over 8 years ago and he administered an epidural into my spine afterIpersistent back ache from degenerated discs. I had over three years of relief from this and was very pleased with the results. Fast forward to this year i returned to see Dr Quraishi with tremendous pain in my left leg that was impacting every part of my life. I had several steroid injections through my local surgery and was at breaking point from the pain. I took my scans from Heath Lodge clinic and within minutes of meeting with Dr Quraishi he had diagnosed my pain. I had two buldging discs which were compressing my nerve. Dr Quaraishi talked me through my options really clearly and took time to listen to my anxieties about my pain. We agreed on a nerve block and my appointment was within a few weeks of my intial consultaton and on the day Dr Quraishi took time to discuss my pain and said that I could call his secratary at any point (before my next scheduled appoinmnet) if I felt it hadn't work. I felt Dr Quraishi understood how desperate I was and I felt confident in leaving the hospital that day. Sadly I had only two good days of relief and I called the hospital thankfully getting an appointment two days later. Dr Quraishi asked immediately how I was and took time to explain my next step which was surgery. I gratefully agreed and met up with him a few weeks later to consent. Fast forward to my surgery, Dr Quraishi came to see me in the morning and explained the procedure again, he assured me and made me feel completely safe in his care. The operation was successful and later that day Dr Quraishi came to see me to check on my progress and again the next day. Once discharged my aftercare has been brilliant and he has continued to check in on my progress. I truly feel that Dr Quraishi understood the severity of my pain and has done everything in his power to help me. I completely trust him and his judgement and appreciate everything he has done for me. I have never felt rushed or disregarded when I have seen him which I have felt with other doctors in the past when I have sought help for my back. I would, without a doubt, recommend Dr Quraishi, he has given me my life back when I was at breaking point and there is no gratitude in the world high enough for that.
