All surgical procedures will be thoroughly discussed during the consultation. It is important to note that no surgery is completely risk-free. Therefore, the recovery process after surgery, as well as potential complications, will be addressed.
Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) for Foot and Ankle
I have introduced minimally invasive surgery techniques in the North Midlands region. As the sole surgeon in the area who consistently employs MIS techniques, my focus is on treating conditions such as bunions, forefoot problems, heel issues, and foot deformities such as flat and high-arched feet. Through the use of minimally invasive surgical procedures, my aim is to minimize tissue disruption, decrease swelling, and expedite the recovery process. The positive feedback from numerous patients serves as evidence of the improved recovery experience facilitated by my techniques.
I am committed to constantly enhancing my skills. I have been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to visit renowned MIS surgeons, both within the UK and internationally, which has greatly broadened my knowledge and expertise. These visits have facilitated the exchange of ideas and the integration of new techniques into my everyday practice.

Bunion Correction
Bunion correction aims to realign the big toe, relieve pain, and restore natural foot function. Modern surgical techniques are minimally invasive, allowing quicker recovery and improved comfort. If bunions are affecting your mobility or daily activities, timely correction can help prevent further joint damage.
Lesser Toes Correction
Lesser toes correction focuses on treating deformities such as hammertoes, claw toes, and mallet toes to restore proper alignment and comfort. The procedure helps reduce pain, improve balance, and prevent corns or pressure sores caused by abnormal toe positions. Using modern, minimally invasive techniques, recovery is faster and more comfortable. This treatment helps you walk with ease and regain natural foot function.
Advanced Arthroscopic Surgical techniques.
I regularly perform arthroscopic ankle fusions, which is a surgical procedure aimed at alleviating ankle arthritis. I am the sole specialist in the North Midlands region who frequently conducts advanced posterior arthroscopy of the subtalar joint and Achilles tendon area. These procedures involve making small incisions in the foot, which serve to safeguard the surrounding soft tissues while enabling substantial interventions with minimal harm to the patient's tissues.

It’s been a wonderful experience from the word go from the ward, to surgery to being discharged. Huge improvement to my foot. Thank you
Mr Alimau was very friendly, efficient and confident! Pleased we chose him.
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 Akamai was a pleasure to meet, was very professional and treated me with dignity and I am very pleased with the results of my operation. I can’t praise him enough.
Fantastic surgeon, very personable and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this surgeon. He has changed the lives of so many including my own family members.
Fantastic, cured my Achilles tendinopathy after nearly 5 years of pain with surgery. Thank you!
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.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
