At the start of the coronavirus pandemic in the UK Ian Franklin suspended his private practice and returned to the NHS (Charing Cross Hospital) and spent several weeks on the front line caring for COVID-19 patients at the height of the crisis. During this time it became clear that many patients with COVID-19 develop thrombotic (blood clot) problems which can have serious effects on the circulation. He is one of a very small number of vascular surgeons in the UK with extensive acute COVID-19 experience.
