Mr James Carmichael

Written by a NHS patient at Peterborough City Hospital

My family and I are extremely grateful to Mr Carmichael and his team. Having lived with a completely torn ATFL for over 8 years and struggling with repetitive ankle rolls decided to seek a consultation with a specialist. I ended in Mr Carmichael's care who from the very beginning was very knowledgeable and gave great advice and gold standard surgery. Now my bad ankle is better than the good one! The only downside was the 2 year wait for the operation, understandably this was beyond Mr Carmichael and the team as they are overwhelmed with the amount of patients requiring medical care. Thanks again and may God bless all of your hard work.

Having been referred to Mr Carmichael I have to say from the outset he explained everything regarding my treatment options and possible outcome if I opted for surgery. Having had a Neglected Achilles Tendon Rupture I wanted surgery to repair the tear and sort out the damage. Each visit was extremely pleasant and the staff at the Fitzwilliam Hospital were perfect, surgery was successfully completed in July and recovery went very well. Having now been discharged I look back on the whole journey as a very positive outcome, physio and rehabilitation to follow but thankful I was in safe hands. I couldn’t speak more highly of the whole experience, many thanks.

I have tried for 12+ years to get a diagnosis for an ankle issue that has impacted my social/work life and fitness ability. Years of bobbing and weaving the 'lose some more weight and see' or 'all the tests say you're fine' made me casually cynical about the outcome of my appt. It took Mr. Carmichael around 20 minutes to provide and communicate a diagnosis that made complete sense. I am grateful to have found a medical professional who is open to listening, personable, and undoubtedly extremely knowledgeable in his field of expertise. Essentially, if you're reaching the end of your wits and you have an appt with him, just wait it out and there's a high likelihood you'll come out smiling.

The whole experience with Mr Carmichael, from initial diagnosis through surgery and finishing with post operative consultation, has been great. He is professional, knowledgeable, gave reassurance of the outcome of the surgical procedure and was generally a lovely man to deal with. The Fitzwilliam is a fabulous facility and all the staff were helpful and went beyond expectation. My big toe has arthritis and was so painful it required the joint repairing and fusing into position. This isn't something to take lightly as it requires 6 weeks with your foot elevated after surgery but I can confirm he is a fabulous surgeon who knows his subject. He performed my surgery and the results are excellent. I can definitely recommend putting your trust in his ability.

The care given by Mr Carmichael was second to none. I had an issue with my ankle for over 2 years, however, following a consultation with him he identified the issue straight away. He explained the surgery clearly and answered all my questions. A great doctor who has fixed me up!
