Hip replacement - I was well looked after following surgery which included a check by Mr Britton during his time off. My previous medical history was taken into account when treating me post op. I cannot state what a difference this op has made my pain went including from my lower back and I have my life back.

Top surgeon from start to finish, I’ve had a steroid injection, a meniscus tear replaced and two total knee replacements. If I ever had anything wrong that fell into his field of surgery I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to him.
