Mr Iain Brown

Mr Brown is kind, compassionate, and friendly

Thorough, informative and helpful. I woke up pain free this morning after some months of pain and discomfort. It's like being re-born (almost!).

Excellent and informative. Friendly and professional manner.

Dr Brown performed two surgeries, one on each of my shoulders, subacromial decompression and biceps tenodesis for each. Both operations went very well and fully fixed chronic, long-standing pain that I've had for more than 15 years and that years of physiotherapy ans strengthening could only partially alleviate. During the initial proces, Dr Brown detailed my options, including the non-surgical ones and never pushed surgery on me. Once I did opt for surgery, he explained all the risks and benefits carefully and transparently. The surgeries went very well, with Dr Brown meeting me immediately after the surgery to inform me of what he found and how it went. The Shawfair Park hospital also made sure I saw a physio before I left to give me a post-op exercise program. The recovery was quick and I was able to go back to the gym and lift (light) weights already after 6 weeks. I'm now fully recovered on the right (first surgery) and already able to function just fine and pain free for daily life on the left one. Even on the left which is still recovering, I already have better range of motion than before the surgery. I am overall very happy with the results.

Follow appointment from shoulder surgery. 4 weeks and healing well and Dr Brown done the surgery. He explains everything well and talks you through the stages of recovery.

Follow up consultation today with surgeon following son’s shoulder surgery. Everything explained clearly to my son . Very professional.

Couldn’t fault the way I was treated.

Mr Brown is absolutely fantastic at explaining what’s going on with your injury/joint. For me it was my right shoulder. He tried all options for pain relief prior to last resort of an operation and he really listened to me. He performed reattachment of the long headed bicep and various procedures inside and around the joint. It was a relatively big operation. It has been a resounding success. I have full range of movement, I’m strong than I’ve ever been and zero pain. I can’t recommend him enough. I’m a highly active woman and I’m able to carry on with all of this now!

I arrived with significant pain in my right shoulder. I was diagnosed quickly but also sent for scan which confirmed my frozen shoulder/build up of calcium causing the pain. I was offered a clear pathway to recovery, which started immediately with a cortisone injection. This was handled brilliantly and with a high level of empathy to my dislike of needles!! I now also have a clear plan for a 2nd procedure and will be back for a revised scan to check progress.

Very nice doctor
