Mr Dowen was very approachable and gave excellent advice. He reassured me on what was wrong and how my operation would relieve my pain. Mr Dowen came to see me after the operation and advised that it had gone well and I was very pleased with the success of my hip replacement. I am up and running again after six weeks which is remarkable given my age and how debilitating my pain had been.
