Your Hands, Your Life

Doctor Naqui and his team did an amazing job looking after me. Donna was a constant reassurance and kept on top of everything. As someone who depends on his hands for a living I’d highly recommend him for any serious injuries.

Dr Naqui was fantastic, his skill has allowed my hand to completely heal, within weeks of the procedure. Thank you so much. Kind regards

I had an excellent consultation with Mr Naqui. He diagnosed the 3 issues I have with my hands quickly and efficiently with a full explanation of the conditions in question. Fortunately no treatment is indicated yet but if this is required in the future I will undoubtedly be seeking his assistance.

I would highly recommend Mr Zaf Naqui. I went to see him with Carpel Tunnel issues which were causing me problems such as pain and numbness in my day to day life. I chose Mr Naqui as he is an experienced hand and wrist surgeon with an excellent reputation. He was very approachable and professional, and we agreed that the best solution for me would be to have decompression surgery.
Throughout the whole process I could not have wished for a better experience. The surgery has been a success and I now have complete relief of symptoms.
I would also like to thank his secretary Donna, whose efficiency and excellent communication skills helped with the smooth running of the whole process.

I went to Mr Naqui following having broken my wrist in 3 places. I had 2 different plaster casts over a 10 week period from the NHs and no physiotherapy follow up. I was in constant agony and couldn’t move my wrist at all. I was even waking in the night with pains shooting up to my shoulder from my wrist. Even after 10 weeks the wrist was very swollen as were my hand and fingers. My hand had also grown hairy and my skin was very mottled with poor circulation After seeing Mr Naqui he ordered X-Rays and an MRI scan. He diagnosed CRPS. He was very honest and said it is a difficult condition to treat and required a lot of physio and work. he referred me to a hand and wrist physio clinic under a lovely lady called Laura. Following nearly a year of a variety of treatments from hot wax, to massage, and extensive pysio and exercises on a daily basis(& even some acupuncture which definitely helped things along) I am glad to say I have a lot more movement and a lot less pain. Mr Naqui has assured me that this should continue further over the next 6-12 months and I should gain some more strength. He has assured me I can go back at any time if there are any problems but I am no longer taking painkillers or getting the shooting burning pains. I’m also thankful to say that the circulation is vastly improved and the “hairiness” has gone. Many thanks to Dr Naqui and Laura in physio!

I saw Mr Naqui twice regarding my broken wrist, the sessions were extremely relaxed and professional. He knew how to treat my condition and I was soon on my way to a full recovery within a few days. I would recommend Mr Naqui to anyone young or old.

I definitely would recommend Dr Naqui.

At the first consultation he perfectly described the problem and how he was going to address it…

On the day of the operation Dr Naqui and hit team were first class. The operation on my wrist was brilliant and is now perfect

The follow up appointment and check up was on again on point.

I had my carpel tunnel release surgery done. He has been very professional and efficient surgeon. Easy to access and get appointments as per need. Very clean surgery and good recovery. He listened to my concerns and try to resolve them as possible. A line about his secretary: very approachable and helpful person. Always proactive in listening and trying to resolve.

I was diagnosed with Dupuytrens contracture on my left hand by Dr Naqui, he carried out the operation to correct, I was in and out of hospital the same day, back at work within 2 weeks, incredible results, can hardly tell its been operated on and absolutely no pain which I thought was incredible, how now have full function and you could never tell, brilliant surgeon and very down to earth and with a fantastic and lovely team, superb.

Mr Naqui was fantastic from the moment I met him, very approachable and informative He put me at ease with his lovely manner and knowledge. When he looked at my x-ray’s he said it was no wonder I was in so much pain, as my joints had worn away. I was relieved as you feel that people think you are exaggerating how much pain you are in. I can honestly say it was one of the worse pain I have ever felt. Sometimes the pain was like electric shocks shooting up my thumb and into my arm other times it was like really bad pins & needles, but there was always a continual ache.

After suffering with Osteoarthritis for about 4 years, that was gradually getting worse, I had no grip and was finding everyday chores difficult, no strength and had difficulty with work due to pain and discomfort. I was constantly taking pain relief medication the strongest I could get.

I was then referred to Mr Naqui and he suggested I had both thumb joints replaced, he explained the procedure in full and I was nervous but also excited to hopefully get rid of this pain.

I had my first joint replacement at the Spire Manchester in June 2023 and and the procedure was carried out in the morning and when I returned to my room I had a little bit of pain following the surgery but can honestly say that the arthritic pain had gone, I couldn’t believe it after so long in continual pain it felt like a miracle (to me). I was discharged with pain relief but found I didn’t really need it. When I saw Mr Naqui post op I couldn’t wait for my second thumb to be done, we agreed we would give it a few months, but it felt so good I kept on and he eventually agreed to do my 2nd operation at the end of September, and I wasn’t disappointed once again I was arthritic pain free within hours. I even stopped a lady in the Trafford centre who had splints on both her thumbs and I asked if was arthritis, she said it was and I gave her Mr Naqui’s details and told her it was the best thing I ever had done.

Following my operations I saw Sarah Keogh who provided my physiotherapy and she was very knowledgeable and dealt mostly with hand patients she gave me loads of advise on how to strengthen my thumbs and different exercises I could do at home, I was discharged by Sarah 6 weeks following each operation and never looked back.

Donna Clark Mr Naqui’s secretary was lovely always answered any question I had and if she was unavailable when I called she would always return my call, she always put my mind at rest and I appreciated her friendly manner.

I think this procedure should be more available as until, I went to see Mr Naqui I had never heard that thumb joint replacement was a option.
