I will always be grateful to Dr Klinke for a very successful operation and for the consultations that helped me recover and walk normally again after a very serious ankle injury. Dr Klinke is the best consultant I have ever met and I highly recommend Dr Klinke to anyone with ankle or foot injuries.

He takes time and trouble to explain things. He is respectful, professional and at the same time friendly and caring. I was a 'complex' case so I appreciated his honesty and support. Because of his surgery and care, I'm now pain free which is the first time in over 4 years. I can't describe how good this feels!

Mr Klinke explained accurately and understandably the condition of my ankle which was replaced in January 2020. He was reassuring and helpful.

I was referred to Mr Klinke for a broken fibula. The experience was excellent. Fortunately the fracture was stable so did not require surgery, and Mr Klinke was very clear about the pace and requirements for recovery - 6 weeks in a boot, then a gradual return to walking and eventually exercise. I saw Mr Klinke four times during my recovery. He is highly experienced and extremely professional. I felt in very good hands. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Good clear explanation and options going forward.

My experience with Mr Klinke has been very positive. He took the time to properly examine my symptoms and listened carefully to what I had to say. He was great in reviewing the MRI scans very carefully to give me his best view on my symptoms. Thank you for your time and expertise

Mr Klinke carried out revisionary surgery on my foot following failed surgery several years ago (different surgeon). This time I carried out extensive due diligence, including meeting several consultants. Mr Klinke was extremely clear in his explanation of both the problem and the proposed surgery. Surgery was extensive but I felt I was in safe hands from the first meeting. Mr Klinke has an excellent bedside manner and took time after the surgery to explain exactly what had been done as prior to surgery is was not possible to determine exactly how much would be needed were some variables, but he had run through all the possibilities prior to surgery so nothing came as a surprise. He was also thoughtful about my mobility and comfort and quickly moved me from a cast to a boot. He kept a careful eye during follow up visits to ensure that the bones had joined and reassuring me that all was on track. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Klinke.
Hi, This is wonderful to hear, I am so pleased that you had such a positive experience and that you are on the mend after your surgery. Agreed, Mr Klinke is an outstanding surgeon, and an incredibly kind and personable guy. We wish you all the best.

Just the best surgeon i have encountered, explains the procedure clearly, how the recovery will be and here I am more than six months later with no mobility issues and a straight foot!

Mr Klinke is an amazing surgeon who undertook quite complex surgery on my foot. He explained everything at each stage of the process and now some 14 weeks post surgery everything has healed very quickly and thanks to his incredible needlework the scars are barely visible. Even at this stage I am far more mobile than I was 12 months ago and I just now have to work on regaining all the strength in my ankle. I would recommend him without any hesitation whatsoever and if he told me that I would have to undergo surgery again I would do it without question,
