What We Do

A painful ankle has many possible causes, ranging from joint instability to arthritis, and it’s possible to treat almost every problem, relieve pain and restore function. Mr Monkhouse treats the entire range of foot and ankle problems, with a special interest in sports injuries, persistent pain after an ankle injury or just exercise, joint instability, mid-foot pain or pain in the ball of the foot when standing. Other specialist interests include surgical management, tendon transfers and selective joint fusions of neuromuscular deformities of the foot and ankle, whether from stroke, congenital degenerative nerve problems, cerebral palsy or nerve injury.

Mr Monkhouse treats traumatic injuries of feet, ankles and Achilles tendons. He also manages foot and ankle arthritis and undertakes procedures like hallux valgus surgery, bunionectomy, toe straightening, ankle ligament repair/ reconstruction, ankle keyhole surgery, Achilles tendon surgery and major joint fusions (ankle, hindfoot and midfoot).
