REVIEWS
Hear From Our Patients
Posted on Farhad KhanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Dr.Rayif for your excellent care; my father physical conditions have remarkably improved since the surgery" or "I am so pleased with the outcome and grateful for your expertisePosted on Ajmal NazirTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had been suffering from trigeminal neuralgia for 4 years while working in Riyadh. I visited several doctors in Saudi Arabia but found no relief. After consulting Dr. Rayif in Islamabad, I began his treatment and medicine, and Alhamdulillah, I felt significant relief from the pain. I highly recommend Dr. Rayif for his expertise and effective treatment.Posted on Hira ImtiazTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mother had a severe lower back pain and being a patient with history of TKR surgery, we were quite concerned about it as strong pain killers/muscle relaxants were making no difference and the pain was affecting her mobility. A colleague referred Dr. Rayif Rashid Kanth for consultation, being one of the best neurosurgeons in Pakistan. Dr. Rayif reviewed my mother's medical case in detail and suggested to go for Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (PLIF) procedure and assured that it will ease her lower back pain and will improve mobility. And without a doubt the surgery worked as a miracle for her. She started walking after 2 days of surgery with the help of walker and her surgical stitches also healed well in time. It's being a month now and her recovery is going really well, Alhamdolilah. She is not taking pain killers or muscle relaxants anymore and she can walk on her own without any external support and getting back to her routine life. Dr. Rayif is indeed an Exceptional Neurosurgeon with a very supportive medical team. Nowadays very few surgeons show concern about post op recovery and care for a patient, but Dr. Rayif kept a keen track on her recovery and guided us throughout even if we contacted him after work hours. His medical team was also really supportive in providing post op care and attending our queries, especially Kamran bhai. I would highly recommend Dr. Rayif Kanth 💯, to seek top-tier care and treatment for neurological or spinal conditions.Posted on Shahbano HassanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If I had an option of giving no star I would have. Been more than 6 months and despite physiotherapy my mother is still unable to sit by her self.Posted on Muhammad FaisalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
