Waddington Foot & Ankle

A lovely surprise in clinic today when two of my previous secretaries dropped in to say hi! They’re both loving early retirement and I have to say, it suits them…they’re looking as young as ever and full of the joys of spring!

A huge thank you to one of our team members for capturing this stunning view — the rainbow made it all the more special.

The changing of the guard. Last day for with the boys before he starts proper learning with the laydeez and Nat. He’s cutting his apron strings and spreading his wings!

Well done on all of your achievements and progress DP. Lots and lots and lots more to come no doubt. You survived Wadders for 2 years! 😂😂

There really isn’t anything better than getting a message out-of-the-blue from a patient, to say that they were thinking of you because they can now do what they couldn’t.

This patient had had an Achilles decompression at another centre but had struggled post-op for a couple of years. He was limping and his recruitment was poor. It ached.

We had a look & a chat, worked out what we needed to do to be able to achieve his goals and set to it. Over the past 18/12 he has worked fastidiously to get back to running and hill walking with his family. Chapeau.

(….my input?…depends how you frame it…minimal or critical…I’d probably say the former as I didn’t do the hard yards)

Interesting little bit of CPD this evening thanks to and it’s adjunctive application in foot & ankle pathology from reducing tissue inflammation to assisting in diabetic foot ulceration time to healing
We certainly live in exciting times where science and technology can be applied to medicine and patient care improving outcomes and quality of life

A great afternoon of learning thanks to Advanced Oxygen Therapy Inc in the use of hyperbaric oxygen delivery for the healing of hard-to-heal and slow-to-heal wounds in the At-Risk leg and foot. This can be delivered as an in-patient or in a domicillary setting 5-7 days per week for 90 minutes per application generally in wounds over 12 weeks old. The application of science and technology at its best.
