Summary
Mr C complained that the board had acted unreasonably by not offering him surgery to address his back, leg and foot pain.
We took independent advice from an orthopaedic surgeon. They noted that at the time of the board's decision, surgery was not appropriate for Mr C. We therefore did not uphold Mr C's complaint.
