Mr Klinke carried out revisionary surgery on my foot following failed surgery several years ago (different surgeon). This time I carried out extensive due diligence, including meeting several consultants. Mr Klinke was extremely clear in his explanation of both the problem and the proposed surgery. Surgery was extensive but I felt I was in safe hands from the first meeting. Mr Klinke has an excellent bedside manner and took time after the surgery to explain exactly what had been done as prior to surgery is was not possible to determine exactly how much would be needed were some variables, but he had run through all the possibilities prior to surgery so nothing came as a surprise. He was also thoughtful about my mobility and comfort and quickly moved me from a cast to a boot. He kept a careful eye during follow up visits to ensure that the bones had joined and reassuring me that all was on track. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Klinke.
Hi, This is wonderful to hear, I am so pleased that you had such a positive experience and that you are on the mend after your surgery. Agreed, Mr Klinke is an outstanding surgeon, and an incredibly kind and personable guy. We wish you all the best.

Just the best surgeon i have encountered, explains the procedure clearly, how the recovery will be and here I am more than six months later with no mobility issues and a straight foot!

Mr Klinke is an amazing surgeon who undertook quite complex surgery on my foot. He explained everything at each stage of the process and now some 14 weeks post surgery everything has healed very quickly and thanks to his incredible needlework the scars are barely visible. Even at this stage I am far more mobile than I was 12 months ago and I just now have to work on regaining all the strength in my ankle. I would recommend him without any hesitation whatsoever and if he told me that I would have to undergo surgery again I would do it without question,

He is very caring, really listened to what I was saying and treated me as an individual. He didn't rush into any conclusions and was careful to consider the best treatment plan for me. Pre and post surgery support has been excellent. He is kind and also very professional and I can see that he is highly respected by his team.

Martin performed my Achilles repair operation and took care of me through rehab. I was always treated with utmost care and respect, and I successfully returned to sport following the repair.

M Klinke was very informative, explained the procedure of the operation very clearly. He gave me confidence and reassurance. Very approachable and friendly. Mr Klinke came to me after the operation and informed me the operation went well and explained the after care that I needed.

Mr Klinke provided excellent care. Due to the unusual presentation of my injury he arranged to attend a scan so that he could better understand and diagnose my problem. On a personal level he showed good humour when I didn’t always follow his treatment plan.
