STAGES OF THE RETIREMENT OF MR DAVID ANTHONY JONES FRCS
AUGUST 2008


After 22 years as a Consultant I retired from surgical practise and for the last 10 years I have worked as an expert witness.

Thanks to the kindness and support of the Legal Profession at all levels I have greatly enjoyed this period of my carrier which is now coming to a close.

With my impending retirement, I wish to advise you as follows:

Firstly, may I thank you for all your support over the years and for providing me with clients on whom you wished to have expert medical evidence. The schedule of my retirement, god willing, will proceed along the following lines.

I will continue to examine Claimants until 31 December 2008 after which time I will not have the facility for clinical examination available to me. It is important, therefore, that you review any existing Claimants for whom you are relying on my medical evidence and consider whether or not any further up to date examination would be required. If such an examination is required, please let me know urgently in order that I may allocate an appropriate appointment prior to the end of this year.

I will remain available for other aspects of preparation for Court, such as conferences, joint statements and appearances at Court until March 2010. This would give a period of over a year and a half from the present date.

I would urge you, therefore, to consider accelerating any cases that may require a Court hearing and that would involve my expert evidence. After 31 March 2010 I am unlikely to be have the appropriate insurance cover in order to deal with any matter on which I would have to give advice.

I have given a lot of consideration to the time scale and hope you consider it is reasonable (bearing in mind that all good things have to come to an end at some point!).

Again, may I thank you for your support over the years and your kindness in referring cases to me.

Yours sincerely,


D Anthony Jones BSc MCh FRCS MAE
Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
