Reviews
I have seen Mr Richard Freeman recently on three occasions both at Spires Tunbridge Wells and Spires at Gatwick. He has helped me with problems with my Achilles tendon. He was very thorough with his examination and treatment. The problem is now cured. Mr Freeman is a delight to deal with very friendly and open with great communication skills. He is also very very knowledgeable. At all times I understood his diagnosis and the treatment prescribed. I would recommend him 100%. Thank you Mr Freeman for the great service.
I liked Mr Freeman's approach to surgery and recovery which seems more current and practical, putting the needs of the patient first whilst providing excellent care, than perhaps more out-dated methods.
I felt very confident from the outset that Mr Freeman was going to do a great job on my foot. He was very relaxed; not at all intimidating. Post operation, my healing and recovery has been very good indeed, the foot is looking great, and I am a lot further forward than I thought I would be at this stage. I am a very happy customer, thank you!
Mr Freeman is my consultant for a Bunion repair. The information he has provided has been clear and very helpful, both prior to and since my operation. He has given me all the details I have needed to go through the procedure and post-op care, but without confusing me with too much information. I would definitely recommend him to anybody wanting to go through the same procedure.
I really appreciated Mr Freeman's clear and consistent communication style. He was very clear at framing his suggestions alongside evidence and made the whole process very straightforward for me to follow. The surgery and recovery have both gone very well and I feel very fortunate to have been treated by Mr Freeman.
