Mr Neil Barber put me at ease with the explanation of the procedure so I am not anxious or worried. He has a very relaxed manner. He also discussed my itinerary for the month after the procedure so I have the clear idea of things I can do or should avoid. On the whole a great doctor.

A good consultation, good manner and well explained

Extremely thorough throughout initial consultation, surgery and follow up. Explained what would happen and was clear about outcome. Managed my fears and delivered a positive outcome

Excellent explanation and put my mind at rest after going into a bit of a mental spiral.

Very thorough when discussing the procedure & answered all questions putting my mind at ease

Excellent . Good explanation of procedure and risks . As a general comment I think that more info on post op recovery, wound mgt etc would be useful - to be fair some of this is available online but the surgeons focus is, rightly, on the operation, as is much of the provided information. As a patient the post op period when issues arise - dressings, twinges, exercises etc and some more support mechanisms /info here would be good - not that I think busy consultants like Mr Lockyer need to provide it.

Reassuring as usual.

Mr Nizar listened to what I had to say and looked at me while I was speaking. He did not make me feel foolish or a time waster.

Mr Sturridge was very pragmatic right from the start. He quickly assessed my hip and realised I needed a full replacement. But critically he also assessed the knee pain I had been suffering with for 5 years as likely to be referred pain from the hip. Mr Sturridge visited me in the afternoon after the morning op to check I was comfortable and to let me know everything went well. I was able to get up and walk a few steps with a walker that day. Within two weeks I was able to walk unaided without crutches and at my six week check up with him I was walking up to an hour! Mild pain was completely gone within a month and the scar is very neat and healed well. I cannot have hoped for a better outcome as true to his word the knee pain I have suffered for so long (and three knee ops) has completely gone! Thank you so much!

Can’t rate Mr Davidson highly enough! I was referred to him by my GP due to osteoarthritis in both knees. X-rays had already confirmed this. On our first meeting, he X-rayed my hips and found the same problem. One total hip replacement and total replacement of both knees was therefore necessary. This was August. By March all three operations were completed. Before he started, we checked his statistics online. In a trade where practice really does make perfect, he had completed a greater than average number of procedures with less than average complications. This is no doubt due to his thoroughness and attention to detail which was mentioned by his registrars in post-op discussion as being above average. He instils confidence with his cheerful, friendly and humorous personality and a calmness which belies the stress that must accompany this job. My operations were all completed successfully and I am very pleased with the results. At 68 I had developed the gait of a 90-year old, but have been transformed by these ops into......a normal 68 year old (at least)! Many, many thanks.
