Dr F Snyman
No bedside manors and lack of comunication

I had an ankle operation on July 5th 2013. Dr. F Snyman was the surgeon. I never saw him after the operation, I was not told how it all went and what to expect. The ankle is now infected. I left messages for him before the infection. as to how to clean wound, what was needed to be done regarding keeping this clean and protected. To date I have not had any response from the doctor. His receptionist keeps promising to call me back, but never does. I had to go see a GP on Tuesday 30 July to find out that the ankle is indeed infected and they too tried to get hold of the doctor with no luck. I am now taking antibiotics to try clear the infection. The GP is/was concerned that there are still stitches, but we can not get any answers as to how long the stitches take to dissolve, as once again Dr Snyman does not return calls. My whole foot is swollen and seems to be retaining water. The reception wanted me to book an appointment to see the Dr. But I told her why should I keep paying the consultation fees as he never returns calls. I want answers. I am not happy with the way he handled this before and after the operation and now with the infection. I am ready to sue him now for all this
