About Me

Mr Pavel Akimau MD, PhD, FRCS Tr&Orth

Consultant Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon. Mini Invasive Surgery Expert.

The great Leonardo da Vinci once said, “The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.” I am constantly fascinated by this beautiful and intricate mechanism, with its complexity and challenges. With 33 joints, 28 bones, and hundreds of other structures, it enables us to move.

Unfortunately, there are many potential issues that can arise with its different parts, significantly impacting our quality of life. These problems can take various forms, from agonising ankle arthritis to stubborn bunions, misaligned toes, and Achilles tendinopathy, among many others.

Some of these can be alleviated with simple measures such as stretching exercises, insoles, shock wave therapy or injection. Others, however, may require surgery and a significant recovery period.

If you are suffering from painful bunions, misaligned toes, ankle arthritis that affects your mobility, persistent heel pain, or any other foot-related issues, I can provide expert assistance through minimally invasive surgery. Don't hesitate to visit me for a consultation.

Treatments I Offer

Foot & Ankle Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS)

Traditional open surgical treatment of many foot problems often involves large incisions.

Bunion Correction

Bunion correction straightens the big toe, reduces discomfort, and improves overall foot alignment. Advanced techniques ensure less pain and faster healing, helping you walk comfortably again.
Bunion treatment to correct toe alignment and relieve foot pain

Lesser Toes Correction

Lesser toes correction addresses deformities like hammertoes or claw toes to restore natural alignment and relieve discomfort. It helps improve balance, reduce pressure points, and makes walking more comfortable.

Overwhelming happy with the result of my ankle surgery to reattach a ligament to my ankle bone. Has healed quickly and with physio support and exercises, I am able to play sport again...something I don't think I would have been able to if I hadn't have had it. Mr Akimau was brilliant, highly recommend.

Mr Akimau is a great surgeon and I have found him honest and respectful in all my dealings with him and his team. I have no complaints just a thankful heart he was my surgeon who fused my right ankle 10 out of 10

I found Pavel Akimau very friendly and helpful, going that extra mile to help solve my problems with my ankles, and also in organising passing me onto other doctors as I had nerve problems. I would recommend him to anyone with foot or ankle problems his knowledge is excellent.
