Mr Liam Stapleton is professional, knowledgeable, and reassuring with patients. He gives clear details of health problems and treatment plans, covering injections, partial nail removals, and custom insoles. Patients praise his careful checks and ultrasound use for foot problems. Many visit him for general foot pain and ingrown toenails.
Very helpful and knowledgeable. Explained everything clearly.
Well it was a positive experience despite needing a little more time but was all good by the time I went home the care and advice was very reassuring and I was completely satisfied with my surgery Thank you
Mr Stapleton remembered me from a previous appointment a couple of years ago. My appointment was on time and I felt that I was listened to ,advised, and Next stages explained clearly.
This was my second visit to Mr Stapleton and I have no complaints at all. He has a very good bedside manner and put me at ease. The procedure that I had was a toenail removal and it was dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Mr Stapleton made every effort to explain everything to me. He explained how my problem could be helped with treatment by him and what I can do to help myself with exercise at home He was really friendly and very knowledgable …… a very good experience.
It was a very efficient and straightforward procedure that was meticulously explained. No pain from start to finish and still no pain 24 hours later. Thank you.
Excellent appointment, felt very reassured and confident in my ongoing treatment plan
My visit with the consultant was a good experience. I attended the consultants clinic (room) in an office block in Kings Hill, Kent. For me the only downside to the visit was that there was no reception area and I had to stand in a public corridor whilst waiting for my appointment.
Mr Stapleton is clearly a fantastic medical professional it was great to meet him and usually reassuring to hear all that he had to say. Clearly massively experienced , Clearly outstanding bedside manner, very much enjoyed his sense of humour. Looking forward to next steps but so far outstanding care and I'm very grateful
Had my orthotics fitted to my shoes. Time will tell now
