Mr Matthew Tutton shows a professional manner with patients, building high trust and confidence. He performs operations such as hernia repair, along with other procedures. Patients feel safe, well informed, and get clear explanations, even for unexpected diagnoses. Many issues he addresses include hernias and problems needing sigmoidoscopy.
Mr Tutton's diagnosis and recommended procedure was reassuring, and recovery following the operation has been good and relatively painless. The outcome is most satisfactory!
Mr Tutton was very sympathetic and reassuring. He put me at ease during an uncomfortable procedure and I felt confident in his diagnosis and onward plan for me.

I am extremely grateful to Mr Matthew Tutton for his superb operational skills combined with a calm informative manner. I am in my 80s and had a double hernia repair during the afternoon and was back home by 8 30 pm. Wonderful professional service all round.
Excellent treatment and advice from the pre-op consultation through to the follow up appointment after the operation.
Brilliant man. No more needs to be said he did everything I wanted and more and did a brilliant job too
I have a lot of trust and faith in Mr Tutton's expertise.
