Testimonials

Hannan -------------

"Hello, I'm Hannan. I was involved in a highway accident on June 12, 2022, which resulted in a serious traumatic spinal injury. After receiving first aid and undergoing further examination at the hospital, my family and I decided to consult Dr. Saad Akhter for my spinal surgery. Following a period of observation and treatment, I was discharged from the hospital with a recommendation for six months of bed rest. However, I made an exceptional recovery within four months and was able to fly abroad for a new job. Alhamdulillah, I've been fortunate enough to not experience any significant hurdles or pain throughout my journey so far. I do take necessary precautions to protect my health and spinal well-being. I'd like to express my gratitude to Dr. Saad Akhter for his kindness, support, and expert care. I highly recommend him for any neurological or related treatments - 100%!"
