Ankle Arthrodesis

A letter from a patient who had Ankle Arthrodesis (Fusion) performed by Mr Adam Budgen

Hi Adam,

It was nice to meet with you again on Thursday for my follow up appointment.

I must say that I have found my ankle fusion to be a total success and I am delighted with the end result.

Prior to my operation on 7th October 2016 I was barely able to walk and managing the pain was a daily challenge.

Fast forward to today and I am back golfing, cycling and able to carry out daily duties absolutely pain free.

I would like to thank you for your professional opinion and recommendation prior to the operation and giving me back an excellent quality of life.

I would highly recommend a fusion for patients who are living with end stage arthritis.

Thank you again for professionalism in making the operation a life changing success.

Regards,
MD

What our patients say

Just had to let you know how delighted I am with my new Sylastic implant. The healing of the wound and everything has been perfect. I also managed to go walking in the Dales again at the weekend, so as you can see life is good.

I would like to say how pleased I am with the result of my recent bunion operation. During my recovery period I have been in no pain whatsoever!!!! Many Thanks

Thank you for the diagnosis and corrective procedure on my ankle. I completed a cycle ride covering over 1000 miles and ascending more than twice the height of Everest. This would not have been possible without your work.

The operation was a great success and was clearly carried out with a degree of expertise and finesse, which made it heal really well with a minimum of discomfort from even the early stages

After years of pain, I can finally run pain free and it is just incredible.

After discussion with my surgeon Mr Budgeon I decided to have Ankle Fusio and let me tell everybody its the best decision that I could have made. I have made a full recovery from both ops and I am walking pain free.

After you operated I only took painkillers for one day as they were simply not necessary. Thank you so much for the excellence of the operation you carried out on my First MTP Joint.

A massive thank you for the Keyhole Surgery you performed on my Bunion. I can honestly say it has been brilliant from start to finish. I wouldn't hesitate if I ever needed this operation again.

Thank you Dr Budgen for making my feet happy again. The difference is amazing!

I would have no hesitation in recommending anyone with the same condition, who is eligible, to consider Ankle Replacement procedure. It has restored my quality of life!
