Big toe arthritis (1st MTP joint arthritis) treated using minimally invasive surgery

"My wife was treated at Dr Malik's clinic for problems due to arthritis in her big toe. From the time of her first appointment to her final discharge she was treated with the utmost of care. Dr Malik explained in understandable language the operation (minimally invasive surgery - cheilectomy) and approximately how long the recovery time would be. Dr Malik put my wife completely at ease. On the day of her operation his staff were attentive and very understanding and on her return to the ward checks were carried out almost every five minutes. After fourteen days we returned to see Dr Malik for final discharge, again he was so pleasant and attentive. The operation has been a complete success. On behalf of myself and my wife I should like to thank you Dr Malik and all your staff Mr L D Edwards"

Lump between toes - benign tumour

"I had a lump appear between my toes on the left foot. It was ok to begin with then it started getting sore and restricting what shoes I wore. Dr Malik said that he would remove it but there was a risk I could lose feeling in that area. The op was successful, all of the lump was removed and I still have feeling in my toes. The lump came back as benign so alls well. Dr Malik has also treated my daughter with a funny bone growth in her big toe, she is all healed now. The whole team from start to finish were brilliant. Many, many thanks ..Scott"

Achilles tendon repair and Gastrocnemius release contralateral side

"I severed one Achilles tendon and damaged the other one. Mr Malik did a superb repair operation on the one and a gastroc release operation on the other. Both operations and recovery were very successful with full movement in both tendons now. Throughout the procedures Mr Malik and his team have been extremely professional and supportive and have also shown the amount of humour I needed to get me through what for me was a period of a very unnatural and frustrating sedentary lifestyle. Thank you"
