Dear Mr Akrawi This is really to thank you for your care of our son Alex. He recently injured his knee and sustained a subluxated patella with cartilage damage to his lateral condyle, causing his knee to lock. We were really impressed how you identified the underlying problem. I remember well, despite at least two senior members of staff reviewing the MRI scans, there was no clear diagnosis made with regards to the underlying issue. You approached Alex and ourselves very professionally and sensitively explaining the MRI scan in detail and in the context of his presenting problem. You dealt with the required surgery very promptly and gained ours and Alex's trust throughout the whole process, being available for any questions at all times. Alex continues to make good progress following the operation, and fingers crossed won't have any more problems with his knee. We just wanted to make sure you know how impressed we were with your assessment, applied knowledge and professionalism throughout the whole process. We wish you all the very best for your future career, we hope you will choose to work in Cornwall on a permanent basis, but alternatively any hospital would be very lucky to have you on their staff. Thank you for all you have done, best wishes and kind regards, (Dr) Jan Knobloch and (Dr) Emmeline Maguire (Alex's parents)
