I had ankle fusion on my last stage arthiritic ankle, which was badly misshapen and extremely painful. Mr Kumar explained options in a straightforward easy to understand way. He covered all aspects including risks. Communication prior to surgery was concise and clear. On the day of surgery he was reassuring and friendly. The surgery has proved very successful to correct what was a very badly bent ankle. Mr Kumar gave advice on recovery pointing out what I could expect and the do’s and don’ts being non weight bearing for a period. He conducted the replacement of the backslab plaster to full plaster and then support boot. He has been in contact several times since checking on my progress and well being.
