I am a 60 year old lady who has always been fit and active. I had a consultation with Mr Ajis in October 2017 following more and more discomfort with Hallux Ridigus on both feet. I was very apprehensive before the consultation but Mr Ajis immediately put me at ease with his calm and reassuring manner. He informed me he could carry out keyhole surgery (Cheilectomy) under general anaesthetic to remove the Hallux Rigidus on both feet and assured me that I would be mobile almost immediately. In January 2018, I had my operation at 8am and was back in my room before 9am. The anaesthetist and all the staff at Goring Hall Hospital were excellent. After a nice cup of tea, the recovery from the general anaesthetic was very quick. The Physio arrived very soon after and had me on my feet and walking in some special shoes. I was amazed to be walking so quickly and not long after was released from hospital. I walked to the car in my new special shoes to be taken home to rest. I rested with my feet up for 3 days then followed the exercise programme and other advice Mr Ajis gave me. I have recovered extremely well and cannot believe the pain I had been experiencing had vanished and the flexibility in both big toes are amazing. Four months later, I am able to put on normal shoes without any pain or discomfort, I can walk up to 5 miles at a good pace. I have just returned from a holiday and was delighted to show off my new beautiful feet. I wish to personally thank Mr Ajis for his expertise, kindness and for the operation that has allowed me to walk pain free again. Thank you. Helen Arnold
