Reviews
I believe Mr Freeman to be a very professional and competent surgeon. He is very approachable, has a very reassuring, caring and sympathetic manner, he listens and explains everything with great clarity and is happy to answer any questions put to him.
Following the surgical procedure of a minimally invasive toe fusion the recovery time was quicker than I had expected and had no complications.
At the six week consultation Mr Freeman showed me the x-rays to illustrate the fusion of the toe, discussed the recovery process and took time to explain what activities I could realistically expect to do in the next few months and beyond.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Mr Freeman to others requiring foot or ankle surgery and would certainly choose him to perform any surgery should I require it in the future.
Excellent results achieved by Mr Freeman after having a very painful and swollen ankle.
Now have the freedom of walking without the pain and swelling I had.
Mr Freeman performed an ankle arthroscopy and lateral ligament reconstruction.
All consultations with him were very pleasant and reassuring.
My thanks to Mr Freeman and his team and wish him all the very best for the future.
Mr. Freeman listened really carefully to everything I had to say and did everything he could do get me back to training ASAP. He is very friendly and answered all my questions, and my treatment has been really successful.
Great surgeon I felt in good hands all the way can not thank him enough for all his time and work
I can't fault the efficiency, every single nursing and reception staff and my consultant, Mr Richard Freeman, enough ....I've had my fair share of hospital procedures (being accident prone !) - and whilst I hope I won't have to revisit the Nuffield, Haywards Heath - I know it would definitely calm me if I had to go back there compared to anywhere else I have been !! I am actually transferring my NHS referral for a completely different operation there if possible ... says it all ! Thank you to everyone there ... operation a total success and the experience 10/10 !
