Mr Wilson managed my whole experience with professionalism and kindness. I had my left hip replaced in August 2025 and my right hip, involving a 5 hour operation, in December 2025. The operations have changed my life and allowed me to walk normally for the first time in 64 years. Thank you.

Mr Wilson replaced my right hip in 2021 when I was 75 and I was able to do a walk of about 10 miles 9 weeks after the operation. When my right hip became troublesome this year I contacted Mr Wilson without hesitation and he was able to replace my left hip on the 9th April. As previously this latest operation has been a complete success and I am very grateful for all the care and attention that he and his team gave me. Thank you so much.

Mr Wilson is always very professional and caring. He explains procedures and answers all questions thoroughly. His overall manner is excellent. He was always honest and encouraging about possible outcomes. We were both delighted with my progress, he encouraged me to continue with the exercises and walking. I cannot fault his care
