Fabulous experience, well explained and answered all my questions.
I had met Mr Britton several times prior to surgery. His manner was always very reassuring. I felt confident we would get me the best outcome from my surgery.
I had bilateral total knee replacements , which have been fantastic !! The recovery was much easier than I anticipated . The replacements have given me my life back , I can do more or less anything that I would have before the arthritis. Thank you mr Britton and his team
Very good throughout and did exactly as said on the tin
I can not find the correct words to verbalise my experience throughout. I have felt 100% confident in the total care package provided to me through Nuffield care it has been excellent. I have felt safe, included, informed at every stage. Where I continue my recovery 100% confident that the quality of my life has been Improved. It is with exception to Mr Britton that I like to express my gratitude for the professional care that I have received. Thank you Mr Antony Welborn
Very professional. I had 100% faith in the outcome after my previous experience with Mr Britton earlier in the year.
To say Dr Britton fixed my rather nasty knee injury is in no way sufficient to describe my outstanding overall experience. My pre and post op consultations were incredibly informative, and he provided great reassurance at a time when I felt incredibly worried. I knew I was in safe hands, and I’ve made a full recovery. My scars are tiny! I can’t believe what he achieved through such small holes - what a skill! I’m truly grateful for Mr Britton’s excellent and comprehensive care.
Excellent visit. Mr Britton explaines everything very well. He instills confidence in the whole service.
A very skilled surgeon and communicator.
