The specialist and why you should not bring you GF along
July 6, 2011 by crutchman
Since I have Bupa( health care insurance) I decided to go private, so i immediately Googled and asked around for the best specialist and found one in London at the Cromwell hospital specializing in knee and ankle surgery and was top of the game with the latest surgeries and procedures for example he uses the latest new Ahillon(TM) device during surgery with only minor incisions.
I went to see the specialist with my girl friend, who wanted to see for herself what ATR looked like. I went to his office my mind already made up on surgery. He explained a few things that i already know about surgical and non surgical option and he new i did not need convincing. I trusted the doctor and did not ask about specifics and complication as that would lead to more anxiety leading up to the surgery. The only thing that freaked me out was when he touched the cap of about 2 inches where my Achilles was suppose to be and when my girl friend saw it she fainted, so now all the attention was diverted to reviving her. She was ok a few minutes later. word of advice leave your girlfriends and wives at home.
