Testimonials Osteopath Burnley MyMSK
Amir was fantastic scanning my plantar fascia underlining the problems I had and the solutions I need to overcome my injury.Great service
So glad I found this clinic. I can highly recommend the pain relief treatment I received. Dr. Akhtar listens and is very patient, particularly with nervous patients like myself.
Finally somebody who actually listened to me and had the equipment to investigate my problem there and then. Reasonably priced and money well spent as I now have a proper report from somebody who is an expert in this field. The whole team were extremely kind and professional from the moment I made my first enquiry. Very happy to recommend.
Quite franky this service potentially has saved my wife Louise life ! Having gone to see the doctor for the swelling and pain behind the left knee of my wife Louise which we thought may be a bakers cyst. Upon examination it turned out to far more troubesome.This was confirmed in the hospital blood test result of the D-Dimer of 5000 which Louise recieved several hours later from the hospital urgent care centre as Dr Akhtar had written an urgent letter for Louise to take straight after her first consultation.Dr Akhtar is quite clearly not only a very competent professional given his intial diagnosis at the first appointment of Louise of a potential blood clot (dvt)of the left leg of Louise he is also a very considerate & conscientious doctor who quite clearly puts the best interests of his patients above anything else. Thankyou Dr Akhtar you are a credit to yourself and your family and when the blood clot treatment has finished we will be back for further advice and treatment for the original problem.In the meantime we would highly recommend your service. Thanks again from Louise & Paul
Received a fantastic service from Dr Akhtar, he was so friendly, very professional and explained every step of the way. Viewed the ultrasound and there was never any pressure to get anything done. I would definitely go back again if ever I need to. Lovely experience. L Williams
Due to the long wait on the NHS and after suffering many weeks of pain I decided to pay private for assessment and steroid injection to my cervical spine.I am so pleased I came across my MSK Burnley. Lovely clinic nice ambiance.Dr Akhtar is a true professional and a credit to his profession.He is very approachable and went through my MRI scan results with me highlighting where the issues are.He fully explained the procedure, gave me time to ask questions he even showed me on a dummy what he was going to do.The procedure was very though and apart and from a mild discomfort from the local injection I did not feel the steroid injection.Unfortunately for me this has not worked but he did say that it might not. He has sent a copy of my report to my GP and myself.Following our conversation this morning he has sent me further details of other treatment options which I will discuss with the surgeon next week.If you are thinking of going private for this type of treatment please look on there website, check out the reviews, you will not be disappointed with the care and treatment you receive.I would have no hesitation in using this clinic again and will certainly be in touch for me or my family if treatments needed in the future.Thank you Dr Akthar and team for your kindness professionalism and expertise.Julie Robinson
Dr Akhtar checked carefully my MRI scans and advised me of the best treatment for me despite it not being lucrative for him. I respected that honesty and took his advise which has lead me on to different path forward for my pain. I would recommend his thoroughness and honesty to anyone.
I went to “My MSK” having been referred for Plantar fasciitis. Following an ultrasound scan of my Heel I was given an injection into the area. The problem is now much improved and I am not in pain when walking now. Highly recommend 👍
I can not thank Dr Akhtar enough, I highly recommend him, I had an issue with sciatica which he sorted out within 2 weeks. He is highly qualified, passionate about his work and really listened to me. Thankyou much appreciated.
Dr Akhtar was completely thorough in his consultation and refreshing when it came to his prognosis and treatment plan... He is very down to earth and everything he explained to us made sense. So far his treatment plan has helped immensely and made a real difference to daily life. Thank you!
I have used My MSK on several occasions and the treatment and service has always been excellent. Its my first port of call whenever i have an issue.
I thought the session I had was very helpful and very professional. I will certainly go back to this clinic if I have any further problems.
I visited My MSK clinic recently.Dr Akhtar is very professional and following a ultrasound scan diagnosed the problem.He discussed the best treatment options and I had a steroid injection on the day. I have been pain free after months of struggling. Thank you Dr Akhtar.I highly recommend this clinic.
Hi.I want to say a big thank you to Mr Akhtar for examining my shoulder where I have experienced pain almost 5 years and onwards. Mr Akhtar did all his checks very thoroughly and got to the bottom of my problem. I have had chiropractors and sport massage treatments for this particular shoulder and nothing had worked. First session I got results where I could reach my back and after treatment I was extremely surprised at how my shoulder felt at ease. I got an appointment the next day on calling and on arrival I was greeted very professionally. Thank you Mr Akhtar I hope to see you again in the future.VERY RECOMMENDED FOR SHOULDER EXAMINATION.Naveed Qureshi.
My experience at MSK with Dr Akhtar was extremely effective. He was thorough and took his time with clarifying all my question.
Very professional and very nice, took his time to identify the problem and he did. Highly recommended.
Had a recent appointment with dr akhtar. He was reassuring and helpful and gave some good recommendations for treatment of an injury. (And was also honest stating future appointments weren’t needed at this stage.) Would recommend if I needed further treatment in future.
After three years of suffering hip pain that I had assumed was an exercise injury I was diagnosed with early arthritis of the hip a few months ago. The private hospital where I had the MRI scan and X-ray carried out quoted me £1500 just for the surgery time to administer a cortisone injection. This did not include the consultant's fee or the cost of the injection!After browsing on the internet I came across My MSK clinic and decided to book an appointment with Dr Akhtar. I am so glad I did!Dr Akhtar was very welcoming and the consultation was very thorough. Dr Akhtar explained all the treatment options available (more than were offered at the private hospital) and I opted for cortisone and hyaluronic acid injections which I decided to have there and then. That was 3 months ago. For the first month or so my hip felt a bit achy and niggly but then everything settled down and the end result is brilliant! The stiffness has completely gone (my hip used to crack and pop all the time) and apart from a very occasional mild twinge I am pain-free. I can now exercise and even just walk without being constantly aware of my hip. Most days I don't even give my hip a thought!I would definitely recommend Dr Akhtar. I will certainly return if I need a top-up injection in the future or anything else starts to hurt! I should also add that the cost of my treatment was probably about a quarter to a fifth of what I would have paid at the private hospital.Thank you Dr Akhtar
I recently attended the Clinic and found both Dr. Akhtar and the young man on reception to be kind, considerate and easy to talk to. Dr. Akhtar was helpful and knowledgeable and at no point did I feel “rushed”. In fact it was nice to actually be listened to. The Clinic itself is spotlessly clean with a very calming atmosphere as soon as you walk in. The complimentary coffee was much appreciated after my journey! At no point did I feel anxious I have to say and I would not hesitate to recommend MSK . I will definitely return should the need arise.
I had PRP treatment on my hip recently. I was really impressed with the treatment and how Dr Akhtar communicated the process to me and through the visual cues on the scanner explained exactly what was happening while he was treating my hip. I felt comfortable and confident throughout. A really strong clinical environment at such a reasonable price is a must for anyone needing expert treatment.
Highly recommend My MSK.They were able to offer me a very prompt appointment.Dr Akhrar was extremely professional and very welcoming. Within 24 hours of treatment my back pain had greatly improved and 72 hours later I feel almost pain free. Fantastic service, thank you.
Excellent service, couldn’t recommend enough - Dr Akhtar went above & beyond to help my father-in-law. Thank you!
Booked a consultation with Dr Akhtar following 18 months of crippling back pain and not getting answers via GP etc. Dr Akhtar was very clear and informative, he explained everything fully and in a way that I could really understand what the issue was. I didn't feel rushed at all during the appointment. Following treatment I had a reduction of pain in the first 48hrs and then have been pain free since then. Pricing was very clear and booking is very convenient via the website. The clinic was spotlessly clean and well furnished to make you feel comfortable. I have already recommended My MSK to a couple of friends I know have shoulder and back issues and I wouldn't hesitate to see Dr Akhtar again myself if the need arose.
I attended the clinic for guided steroid injections in both hips. Dr Akhtar was extremely welcoming and professional and went to great lengths to explain at each stage how he was assessing my condition and approaching the procedure. The procedure was undertaken very smoothly, efficiently and comprehensively. I felt some initial benefit almost at once and over the coming days, it was a definite improvement. He also took time to diagnose some specific artefacts that he found during the ultrasound scan and these were passed on to my Doctor. I will have no hesitation in returning for further treatment as necessary and would recommend him most highly.
ExcellentSpoke with Dr Amir yesterday about my back problems and sciatica.Booked in todayGreat customer service from Rafi on Reception good luck with your A level results next week 👍Thank you for the coffee..

It was lovely to meet Dr Akhtar yesterday at his clinic. I had an extremely thorough 45 min consultation with him. He was so attentive and really listened to every detail about my history and symptoms. I would also like to add that he has a very friendly and professional manner.I had spinal injections after my consultation. I was rather nervous about having the injections but was pleasantly surprised how comfortable the whole process was. It's early days post injection, however already I can feel a huge improvement in my symptoms.To anyone considering booking an appointment, my advice is not to hesitate, just go ahead, you won't regret it.
