I decided to research bunion surgery as soon as my foot began to feel painful and uncomfortable in certain shoes, which I had previously worn without any issues. Pain would often continue for days, sometimes weeks, even out of footwear and the overall shape of the foot and other toes were becoming affected due to the growing bunion. Not wanting to go down the traditional bunionectomy route for a number of reasons, I was happy to find that keyhole surgery was available which offered less downtime and a quicker recovery period (amongst its advantages). After researching my options, I arranged a consultation with Mr Gordon; he examined my foot, answered all of my questions and was very informative about the process of surgery and recovery. I didn’t hesitate to arrange a date for my procedure by contacting his office staff, who were helpful in assisting with my booking and any further queries I had. The day of surgery went exceptionally well; the staff at The Spire were incredibly professional and friendly, and made every effort to ensure I was comfortable and relaxed before, and after surgery, as did Mr Gordon and his medical team. The surgery went well and I was home the same day. The days following surgery were easier than I had anticipated, as was recovery on the whole. My personal experience was almost completely pain free and without any complications. I followed my post operative instructions exactly as advised and as soon as I was out of the surgical boot, I was wearing a wide fitting trainer and walking with ease. Within 4-6 months I was back in my regular shoes (and some heels) and performing normal activities without any noticeable swelling or pain. I’m so pleased that I opted to have surgery and now 7 months on, I am extremely happy with my recovery and of course, with my lovely, bunion free foot!

My surgery was for Morton’s Neuroma, I was in chronic pain over a period of a couple years, I was unable to stand for long periods and go for countryside walks , which I loved. I was referred to Spire Hospital Harpenden .. Mr Gordon. Mr Gordon suggested I had an injection into the affected area but unfortunately this didn’t ease the pain, Mr Gordon then suggested I have an operation in the affected area which should leave me pain free. I was then booked into the Spire Hospital Harpenden, my experience from the consultation through to the operation was brilliant. Mr Gordon, the Anaesthetist and Nurses made me feel very relaxed, the procedure was performed, I am 6 weeks on, pain free and now able to go on relatively long walks again. (Caroline White)

We have seen Dr David Gordon with our 6 year old daughter recently and I can’t stress enough on Dr David’s professionalism, how he took time to explain us her condition and dealt with the child. I highly recommend him, he is a doctor which knows very well his profession and has the knowledge on how to treat his patients.
