March 2022



I had suffered with my back going for over twenty years and sought Professor Ishaque’s professional expertise following a particularly agonising flare up in August 2021. I also had constant pain and tingling in both legs, which I did not actually think was linked to the degeneration of the disc before my treatment, but which was becoming unbearable. The MRI detected a disc herniation and Professor Ishaque advised me to have a bilateral nerve-root injection under general anaesthetic, followed by some physiotherapy sessions.


I must admit, I was initially sceptical about both the injections and the physiotherapy and did not really expect to see much difference. However, I was astounded when I came round from the procedure to find that the tingling and pain in my legs had completely gone and that the effect was immediate. 3 months on and I am still pain free. The physiotherapy was also a pleasant surprise, and I will certainly continue with the exercises I have learnt to strengthen my core, back and legs now my treatment has finished. What a difference in such a short amount of time!


I was a keen runner before August last year and thought I would never run again, but I am now hopeful that I may be able to start again, even if the London Marathon is perhaps not on the list anymore!

  

I would like to thank Professor Ishaque for fixing my back and giving me back my life and my confidence. He has an amazing team around him, and I must thank his lovely Assistant Linda too for all her support and patience too, especially with sorting out administrative issues. I would have no hesitation recommending Professor Ishaque, who is not only an expert in his field, but also affable and puts you at complete ease throughout the process.


Many thanks to you and your  wonderful team!
