About Mr David Redfern

Mr David Redfern is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals. He studied in London and trained in London and Cambridge. He then undertook subspecialist fellowships at Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, USA), and in Bristol at the Avon Orthopaedic Centre.

Mr Redfern has extensive experience in the management of foot and ankle disorders, trauma and sports injuries, including arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery. He has performed thousands of foot and ankle operations and is an internationally recognised expert who has developed minimally invasive and less invasive techniques in these areas.

Mr. Redfern, as outlined in my earlier comments, took time to patiently listen to my explanation of the symptoms am experiencing, gave my foot a thorough examination and took time to explain all of the options open to me. I was very pleased with the whole appointment.

Visited to see Mr David Redfern about an issue that I have with my achilles tendon. I was seen on time, and he listened to what my issues were and performed an examination. He then discussed what the best next steps would be and referred me to a colleague for assessment and a possible high volume injection into my achilles tendon.

He was excellent in every way. He had a superior knowledge of the issue I was presenting with, did a thorough physical exam and ordered further tests to pinpoint the problem. He was courteous and approachable and an excellent communicator. I feel as though I am in good hands, finally, w/ this orthopedic issue (for which I've seen several doctors in the past), and I am confident that a surgery performed by him on it will result in success and alleviate the pain I have been living w/ for too long.
