I live in Lanzarote and have had little success with the local medical services regarding my constant hip pain which i have had for around three following a bicycle accident. All the doctors looked at X-rays and told me it was normal or you have slight arthritis but no action plan to resolve the problem. I had a MRI scan performed at a private clinic and the report was reviewed by a local consultant but nothing conclusive was discovered. I asked a friend in the UK, he was a former Olympic strength and conditioning coach for Team GB if he could research a consultant that could assist me. I also did my research as I had worked in a number sports clinics as a Sports Massage Therapist in and around London. We both concluded that Mr Atkinson would be the man to discuss my problem with. A Zoom call was arranged and I wrote down a list of issues that I was experiencing with my hip. As the call started Mr Atkinson said that he had reviewed my MRI and then stated all the issues and problems that were evident to him. These were the same issues and problems that I had written on my note pad. It was obvious that this was the man for me. We discussed the history from the original accident through to the time of the call. We concluded that the head of the femur was dying and that the only way forward would a total hip replacement.
