What our Patient says
Compassionate and intelligent
I have been bringing my mother to see Dr. Malik for quite some time, and I am very impressed with the level of service that he provides. He is always warm, compassionate, polite, respectful, courteous and caring. He seems to always be in a good mood, and even though his office is always packed with patients, we never feel rushed. My mom has been moving around a lot better ever since Dr. Malik began working on her. She actually looks forward to going to her office visits. He won’t let me come into the operating room while he is doing the injections on her, but I always feel totally comfortable leaving her in his care. She always comes out with a smile on her face, and she tells me that they don’t hurt too much.

Dr. Malik performed a left side sacroiliac joint stabilization. I feel great. Since the day I came home from surgery, I could get out of bed anytime of day or night without any pain. I could standup, and I was not scared I could fall. It has been at least 2 years since I could stand up without pain. Even the surgery center was great, they were able to get my IV in with basically zero discomfort. I cannot be happier with my experience! I would definitely recommend Dr. Malik and Melbourne Surgery Center to everyone!

Good experience
Office was clean, and wait time was minimal. Assistants and nurses were fast and efficient. Dr. Malik was courteous and professional. He was able to identify my problem and recommend treatment options after a brief discussion and examination. Only downside was a lot of paperwork before the visit, and that I have to wait a couple of weeks before I can get my injection.

Miracle epidural
I forgot what it was like to be without pain. I got emotional, because of how great I felt. I’ve had injections before, but none have helped like this. I felt so good, that I went and cleaned out my carport a few days after the injection. The doctor wasn’t to pleased about that, and he asked me to continue to take it easy, but I felt so good that it didn’t bother me at all! And I still feel great. Thanks doc!

I feel so much better!
Dr. Malik and his entire office took such great care of me. He explained my MRI to me in so much detail, he even explained which part of the body is affected by each nerve. He then showed me where my problem was, and recommended an injection. It has been a few months since my injection, and I feel so much better. Thank you Dr. Malik!! I tell all my friends about you.

Finally got some pain relief!!
Moved to Florida from out of state and found Dr. Malik at Global Neuro & Spine. After a few visits trying a couple things he decided to try a procedure called caudal lysis of adhesions. This has worked great and I’m finally able to function almost normally and enjoy the Florida living. Thanks to Dr. Malik, James and the office staff for helping me.

Finally 90% pain free
Dr Malik is a excellent pain management physician. I got my 1st epidural shot for LS back pain and sciatica with tingling and some numbness. Within the 1st few days I was getting relief from my constant pain. I would recommend Dr.Malik and the whole office staff. Everyone has been so kind and helpful and very knowledgeable in all aspects of this field. A+ Dr. & staff

EMG
Last week I had an EMG performed by Anna R. and Dr. Malik. Anna was amazing. She put me at ease and made the test much less intimidating than I imagined. She was very personable and professional. Dr. Malik was also polite, professional, personable, and efficient. Every medical office should have an Anna and a Dr. Malik!
