Skiing, golfing and playing tennis
Unfortunately, in 2019 my knee finally gave way on a ski trip after niggling away for some time. My physio sent me straight to see Mr Simon Thompson as he was the local knee specialist. Simon was friendly, courteous and professional on meeting. He arranged an x-ray and MRI for me. This was done swiftly and he fitted me in quickly to find out what was what.
He reassured me that he would get me skiing, golfing and playing tennis again. The op was successfully carried out.
I was quickly up and about. The muscles around the knee needed to be built up post-surgery and it’s been just over a year now since the operation.
I am delighted to report that yesterday I played mixed doubles tennis, had a Personal Trainer session (with endless squats!) and then finished the day off with 18 holes of golf! Perhaps too much in one day but it tested my knee and it held out! Thanks to Simon, I am back doing all the things I love.
