More outpatient clinics to reduce Isle of Man patient travel
Prof Mason, who the foot and ankle lead at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, has been treating Isle of Man patients for the past 10 years.
Manx Care said that the new clinic “vastly improves the patient experience for this particular cohort of patients, who often struggle to manage the journey off-island”.
The healthcare provider said, similarly to Prof Monga’s shoulder clinics, the foot and ankle orthopaedic clinic “will also provide an educational opportunity for our local team to gain valuable clinical experience”, specifically in trauma training education.
Chief executive Teresa Cope said the clinics showed a “commitment to improve the patient experience and journey by decreasing the number of off-island visits required for these specialisms”.
“We hope to announce a further clinic in the near future to enhance the provision of specialist clinics on-island,” she added.
