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.
