I can’t thank Dr Ali-Ani enough for the surgery he performed on my back. The results have been truly life-changing — I feel like I have my life back. His skill, care, and professionalism were exceptional from the day we met, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone considering treatment.

Mr Asef Al-Ani was very professional and approachable during my consultations. He listened to my history and provided a clear explanation of the tests he conducted and explanation of my MRI results. My results did not need further treatment by Mr Asef Al-Ani but he has referred me for further physiotherapy which I am happy is the right course of action.

Mr Al-Ani was welcoming and empathetic. I have been unfortunate with health of spine but extremely fortunate having him as my spinal consultant. This was my third meeting with Asef over a period of 3 years and each time he makes you feel valued as a Perón and is completely efficient organising investigations and taking the results forward to treatment if necessary. He is marvellous 🤩

Mr Al Ani is an amazing professional. He is very personable and so so experienced and knowledgeable. He explained what the medical condition of my back was and why it has occurred and what can be done to remediate the pain. I feel so much better following my injections and all the attention given by the medical staff on the day of my procedure. Mr Al-Ani’s PA, Anoushka has been great too.

Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews.
