I was treated by Mr Yates for osteoarthritis in both hips. Left being more severe than right one. He has recommended total hip replacement which I was reluctant to do at first but my pain was getting worse. My operation took place on 2nd March at Spire Macclesfield hospital. All the details of treatment and expectations have been explained to me. The team took great care and hospital staff have been professional and caring. Aftercare has been nothing short of excellent. Mr Yates has been very happy with my progress and so was I. I still use a crutch outside for re-assurance, however, I can walk unaided indoors. Better result than I've expected. Thank you

Mr Yates has been absolutely amazing from day one. Explaining procedures, the operation, any possible problems and his aftercare could not be faulted. A caring, professional specialist in his field. We need more doctors like him. Nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much Mr Yates.

Being a slightly high risk patient, it was important to me to feel that my consultant had my best interests at heart. My concerns were allayed upon meeting and working with Mr Yates over a six month period.

Mr Yates, arranged for my X-ray for the same day as my initial consultation and talked over his findings on day 1. He arranged for an MRI to follow to where he referred me to a more suitable colleague of his who specialised in my specific problem. I was really happy that Mr Yates looked out for my best interests through my experience with him.

Edward was fantastic. He took the time to understand my background, what the problem was and how I would like treatment to proceed. He was always on time and I never felt rushed, just heard.

I attended The Spire in Macclesfield this morning for an 8 week post op hip replacement appointment with Mr Yates … what a pleasure … he was his usual confident and competent self putting me totally at ease explaining in detail how I should proceed … obviously with care but it’s back to golf as soon as the weather improves together with my love of working in the garden.
