Written by a patient
8th February 2018


In October 2017, I was misfortunate enough to have a cycling accident which shattered my clavicle (collarbone), that day I attended St.Peter's hospital in Chertsey and an x-ray confirmed my worst fear and the extent of the break. Fast-forward two days and I had been fast tracked through the admissions process to a consultation with Mr Polyzois. He immediately congratulated me on a 'job well done', which considering the amount of pain I was in, I actually appreciated the humour. He gave me a couple of options on treatment, but due to the obvious state of the injury, surgery was in his opinion was the best course of action. A formal session was required to discuss the injury the next day, as I’d opted to have the surgery using my private health insurance, which meant I could be operated on, that Thursday (just 4 days from accident) The day of the surgery, Mr Polyzois came up to see me before I went down for the general anaesthetic, he was very open and spent the time with myself and my wife to answer any questions or concerns. Surgery itself went to plan, and a phone call from him on the Friday whilst I was full of morphine in my bed explained much the same. Had the pleasure of his time over the next six weeks at several follow-up consultations to review the healing process, and again genuinely taking time with his patient to explain the recovery and healing process. So my review.….. “Outstanding”. Mr Polyzois is a true gentleman, hugely talented, humble, but most of all caring, I felt like he genuinely cared about my health. I think the only thing he could have done more, was pick me up for my appointments with him.
