Written by a NHS patient

I agree with the patient above. He never explains anything, I had a life changing surgery and he never told me how disabling it would be. I had bone cancer and he diagnosed me over the phone, never even explained properly what type of cancer I had, he left all the explanations to my oncologist. My leg never functioned properly, I have conditions that could be resolved with surgery but for years he lied to me saying that those surgeries were not a possibility. I stopped seeing him a while ago because it was like talking to a wall and I started to meet other bone cancer patients and noticed how they get help from the surgeons to improve the quality of their lives. He never elaborates his answers, didn't explain anything about my post op and what is a lot worse, he noticed that my endoprosthetic was loose and never said anything, to not commit to a revision. I'm still trying to get answers about my case, the early loosening of my prosthetic could have been caused by an infection, I'm praying to find someone to help me with the mess that this man left in my leg, my knee is completely stiff and he declined to do a manipulation or anything to help me, also he never told me about risks associated with the extensor mechanism. I was left unfit for work at 29 years old, with a disabled child to look after that will need care for the rest of his life. I can't get benefits and live below the poverty line as my capacity for work is very limited, no one would give me a job and now I have to try to do some freelance work, that is very badly paid and I can't say that I have a steady income. I had to go back into education because I relied on my legs for my livelihood. I would not want surgery from him and trusting him in the past is the biggest regret of my life.
