Meeting Mr Stapleton was a pleasure. His knowledge and expertise was evident. The surgery to remove my toenail on my big toe was thoroughly painless following 2 injections. It was over before I even realised. Aftercare advice was clear and supported by a A4 sheet, which included his contact details. Many thanks for his kind manner and friendliness through out.

Explanation

What can I say? I entered Mr Stapleton's office in a state of desperation searching for an answer to my foot problems. A previous operation had not yielded any improvement, and a MRI scan had found nothing amiss. However, within an hour of meeting Mr Stapleton I had received a very informative consultation, had an ultrasound scan, received a diagnosis and had the problem treated. Not only did this improve my ability to walk but over the following weeks, the hip pain that had plagued me for months just faded away.
