Mr Abbasian listened carefully to my problem of osteoarthritis in my foot and gave me a very clear diagnosis of the problem and an explanation of why my problem had developed. He showed me X rays of what he had done for another patient with a similar condition and was positive that he would be able to operate and resolve my problem. He promised that I would be able to walk without pain. He was realistic in that he warned me it would take about a year for my foot to recover from the surgery. I was able to walk the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path for 5 days in the summer without pain just a year after the operation. I had built up my walking before that as a walk leader with the Walking for Health scheme. Have not taken a single pain killer since the operation after having had pain for 5 - 6 years when walking before the operation. I had wonderfully consistent care from Mr Abbasian, seeing him before the operation, just after the operation and at the subsequent outpatients visits. I was happy to seem him after the year was up to be able to thank him for his skillful work.
