Mr John P Murphy is professional and clear with patients. He gives good explanations of diagnoses and treatment plans, bringing calm to those undergoing hip, knee, or shoulder surgeries. Mr Murphy provides quick action to relieve pain, which brings improvement and good recovery. Many patients have sports injuries or need an MRI Scan, and successful hip replacement operations are common.
Mr Murphy was polite and courteous. He asked me all the necessary questions, although the consultation seemed rushed (I put it down to a busy clinic). I was referred for a scan and told that I would be contacted once the scan results were in.
Appointment was on time, everything was explained in clear terms and left me feeling very reassured.
I had been struggling for 6 months to get a proper assessment and diagnosis but John Murphy who was friendly and professional, clearly an expert in his field, diagnosed the problem and explained the possible causes of treatment very clearly. A great experience and would recommend highly.
I had an excellent experience during my consultant appointment with Mr John P Murphy at The Clementine Churchill Hospital. From start to finish, everything was clearly explained and handled professionally. Mr Murphy took the time to talk me through the appointment and the MRI diagnostic findings in a way that was easy to understand. I felt listened to, reassured, and well informed throughout. The appointment resulted in a referral for a spinal consultation and I appreciated the clear guidance on the next steps. Overall, it was a very positive experience and I would be happy to recommend Mr Murphy.
Mr Murphy was thorough and very helpful in explaining how my injury would improve over time. A very nice man.
Amazing doctor. Fantastic experience. Everything was clearly explained and performed flawlessly. Great recovery, way better than expected due to the amazing work of Doc Murphy. I would highly recommend and would use again if needed.
I cannot speak highly enough or Mr Murphy and his treatment of me, he was clear and precise of what he was doing, what was needed to be done and any future treatment such as a knee and patella replacement in “hopefully” 5+ years time as long as the knee does not worsen
I sought help regarding my injured shoulder , Dr Murphy was a lovely gentleman and very thorough , polite and reassuring in his approach
I had surgery on 2nd December 2025 for a torn meniscus in my knee. The procedure went very well and I am very pleased with the outcome. Mr Murphy’s approach and explanation was clear and professional at all stages. I’m very glad to have had this procedure.
