I thought you may be interested in my story. I recently sustained a Nasty crash out Mountain bike trail riding at the Cork Screw Trail, Cannop Cycle Centre Forest of Dean, #FODMTB It was Sunday 15/10/2016 @ around 12pm I collided with a tree head on at 34.2mph causing a severe dislocation to my left elbow in which resulted in a full radial head elbow replacement, (1st ever Full radial head replacement to be done in history of the NHS I believe!) I also snapped my right wrist also resulting in a operation and pin insertion to repair. I was introduced to Orthopaedic Consultant Mr Alun Yewlett at the Royal Glam firstly where he explained to my self and partner exactly what the procedure was for such a horrific dislocation and such trauma injuries I had sustained. On meeting with Mr Yewlett he was adamant that he could fix my arm no problem. He then transferred me to his clinic at Prince Charles Hospital where Altogether I was under the knife for 7&1/4 hours where he repaired my left elbow along with transferring bone material from my left elbow to replace the splintered bone in my right wrist, Absolutely amazing!!! I must praise Mr Yewlett for his absolute 1st class service and treatment he provided my self, Without his knowledge and excellence I don't think I'd be in the condition I am after only 22-23 weeks from my accident!! Also after 12 weeks from accident please note I was back cycling at the same location I received my injuries in the first place!!!! Highly Highly Recommended to others!!!!! Put it this way i wouldn't refer to him as a consultant !!!! I'd class him as a magician because he worked his magic on my self for sure!!! If only I could place my x-ray & injury photos on here you could see exactly what he had to contend with when he met my self !!!! Thanks for taking 5 mins of your time to read my story .
