I just wanted to let Mr Singh know that the surgery he performed on my right ankle is doing really well, I didn't write before in case I jinxed myself. Thank you very much, it has turned my life around!

I suffered from constant pain in my left ankle joint leaving me unable to run or walk any distance. It was exacerbated by wearing high heels, which I often did for my job as an investment banker. I was referred to Mr Singh in April 2011 who diagnosed a Morton's neuroma on my right foot, which could be surgically removed; and who identified chips of bone from an old break that needed to be excised from my left ankle joint. I had already undergone several orthopaedic procedures performed by other highly-rated surgeons, but none provided Mr Singh's superior & detailed level of explanation and prognosis nor his invaluable preparatory advice. His genuine concern and the calibre of after care were equally high. Both operations were performed at the same time; have left minimal scars which healed quickly; and, most importantly, have left me painfree for the first time in years, able to workout properly and wear heels.

Hope you are well and don't mind me contacting you.
I don't know how to structure this e-mail or put across in writing what I want and need to say to you.
I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am that you carried out the ankle fusion surgery on my ankle. I feel like I have a new lease on life and keep surprising myself everyday with my progress. From taking a short walk, which previously I would have to have driven, to taking the dogs for a walk in the woods.
I will soon be joining a local gym! For me, that is amazing! I am going to be able to enjoy all of their facilities, maybe not at first, but I am going to get there!
This weekend is my birthday; it’s going to be the best birthday in years!! We are going to Brighton to walk along the promenade and are going to hire bicycles. We are also in the process of booking a city break holiday too... all of these things are possible because of you.
So thank you very very much.
Wishing you and your family all the best.

Just thought I would let you know how my ankle has progressed since the arthroscopy back in April. I completed my first post-op Olympic distance triathlon on 3rd July with no reaction from the ankle (just a general lack of fitness!) and have raced in 3 other Olympic distance races since then with no problems.
The operation has really improved my running style and I am able to run without restriction/pain for the first time in years. This weekend I managed a personal best in the Stockholm Half Marathon – knocking 45 seconds off my previous best time! My training has been broadly similar to prior to the operation, but has been less disrupted by niggling injuries.
Thank you once again for your care and skill in undertaking the operation.

A trimalleolar, fracture-dislocation of my ankle ended my 12- year career as a professional stuntman. I was lucky enough to be referred to Mr Sam Singh for ongoing care. I travelled from my home in New Zealand, just so Mr Singh could perform the Arthroscopy. From the first consultation, through to post Op' care, I can't praise him and his staff enough for their comprehensive, informative and friendly service.

For more than 5 years I had pain in my left foot which affected walking, standing and many activities. I spent most of my time in lace-ups or trainers. The pain increased over the years until I could only walk a very short way before stopping.
Mr Singh’s diagnosis of a Morton’s neuroma was confirmed following ultra sound and after a trial of steroid injection he offered to remove it for me. This was a very simple operation and I recovered very quickly. As the surgery had been performed via the top surface of my foot I was able to walk straight away using the platform/sandal support I was given. I had very little pain and what I had was very well controlled with the analgesia.
As an ex Director of Nursing and Quality of an Orthopaedic Hospital I am very critical but I was most impressed with the very neat surgery and the rate that the wound healed. After 12 weeks, the scar is barely visible and there is no pain at all. I have been able to resume all my former activities and walked 5 miles three weeks after the surgery with no problem. I have also been on a walking holiday averaging seven miles a day, which I would never have managed, pre-surgery.
