I have seen Mr Dawe both privately and on the NHS and honestly couldn't recommend him enough. I'm probably a more complicated client. I had a subtalar fusion in early 2017 with a different, extremely well regarded, surgeon and had a lot of complications. As a result, I struggled mentally with anything medical, let alone to do with my ankles, and was still in a lot of pain. Mr Dawe has been incredibly reassuring and caring. He really takes his time with his patients and will looks at non-surgical options as well as surgery. He's completely honest and forthcoming about any risks and likely outcomes. I've had follow up phone calls to check on my progress and the surgery I had with him recently has been brilliant; no wound issues and quick recovery. A family member is also under his care and couldn't be happier. Her concerns have been listened to, her pain is well under control, there's a short and long term plan for her care and she feels very well supported by Mr Dawe. We recommended him to a friend who is now walking without pain for the first time in many years. His clinics can run late, but it's purely because he really takes his time with his patients.
