Achilles injuries can feel daunting, especially when you're unsure of what's ahead, so I'm really pleased you left feeling clear and reassured. Helping patients understand exactly what's going on and what their options are is central to how I approach every appointment – it makes the whole process so much less stressful. I'm looking forward to seeing you make progress and getting you back to doing what you love.

Hearing that you feel genuinely listened to and involved in decisions about your care means a great deal to me – that's exactly the kind of relationship I want to have with every patient I see. Back pain can be complex and often affects so much of daily life, so making sure you understand your options and feel in control of your own journey is something I care about deeply. I look forward to continuing to support you.

Lewis was great at talking through what the options for treatment were, even when I came in for the steroid injection I had he was great at talking through how the pain was currently feeling and whether we needed to go down that course of treatment or if there was a better solution

Reply from Lewis Raiman

Shared decision-making is genuinely important to me – knee pain can present in so many different ways, and the right approach really does depend on what's actually going on for that individual at that moment. I'm glad that came through in how we approached your injection appointment together, and that the conversation felt worthwhile rather than just a formality. Getting runners back to doing what they love is always the goal, and I hope you're moving well.
