I cannot find enough words that describe such an amazing consultant Mr Edward Dawe. I had polio in 1958 at the age of 4 years and had numerous corrective surgeries. Around 16 years ago I had two ankle fusions on my left foot, neither of them were successful. Since then the pain I have endured has become increasingly worse to the point my mobility was terribly impaired. I was then recommended to Mr Dawe in April 2019 who was extremely optimistic that he could help me. Due to the pandemic I had to wait some time before my surgery in September 2020. The results of the surgery to date, which was extremely complex, is far greater than I ever imagined, no pain and almost perfectly straight. I Still have a way to go and will soon have physio to begin to walk with more confidence. Nothing is too much trouble for Mr Dawe, as his patient care and bedside manner is by far the best that I have ever experienced by any consultant. I certainly recommend him and his team for anyone experiencing foot and ankle problems. Due to the pandemic, It has been and still is, a challenging and frustrating time for consultants and NHS staff, so having to wait some time for surgery carried out by Mr Dawe, is so worth the wait. Thank you so much Mr Dawe and all of your colleagues who has made a real difference to the quality of my life.
