Mr Fetherson has now replaced both of my shoulders and over the period from initial visit to today's final look at the results of both shoulder he had been excellent, everything explained in regards as to what to expect before each operation and his visit after the operation has been very professional. Importantly his manner inspires confidence and helps relax. A brilliant Surgeon, Consultant and Doctor.

Mr Fetherston got straight to the point, reassured me of the minor extent of my injury and set out the possible pathways for future treatment should they be required.

I was referred by my GP with a possible frozen shoulder and subsequently chose a consultation with Mr Fetherston for further tests and diagnosis. His secretary is very easy to reach and is able to offer up a range of appointments to suit my schedule. He was extremely punctual in all his surgeries and extremely easy to converse with and understand. He arranged x-rays and ultrasound for me and subsequently diagnosed bilateral shoulder impingement with a recommendation for steroid injections to alleviate pain and to increase my range of movement. This was carried out shortly afterwards and along with a recommendation for some physio to increase my recovery which I've taken, I've made a near full recovery in a relatively short time. To the point we both agreed one injection would be sufficient. I'd be happy to see Mr Fetherston again for further consultation should the need arise.

If one could say a shoulder replacement was a pleasant experience - that may be a stretch too far. However Mr Featherston was reassuring, always pleasant and helpful - I cannot fault the treatment I received. I would highly recommend.
