I fell and broke my shoulder on a Thursday and was referred by A&E to the fracture clinic the following Monday. I had a very painful weekend! That is where I first met Mr Polyzois. What a relief! I immediately knew that I was in good hands. He took me through every step and was confident that he would be able help. It was a great reassurance. The surgery went well and I was very proud of my X-ray showing 13 pins and a plate! I recovered well and Mr Polyzois was both realistic and encouraging about improvements I could expect. Fast forward 2 years: I had pancreatic surgery and I suspect that my arm was over extended in theatre. I had a sharp pain and difficulty in moving my arm. An X-Ray at A&E revealed that one of the pins had worked loose. After several trips to A&E, I was referred back to the fracture clinic and was so pleased to be greeted by a cheerful 'what have you been doing!?' Mr Polyzios again. It was so lovely that he remembered me, and again I knew it would all be OK. I was extremely worried about further surgery but he answered all my questions patiently. He removed all the pins nice and neatly through the same scar. I think that anyone who has Mr Polyzois as their consultant can expect the very best treatment, delivered in a calm and caring manner.
