Open and direct communication and clear explanations of procedure and outcomes from our first meeting onwards.

Excellent care, explained operation procedure, risks etc clearly and in detail, answered questions satisfactorily. Was available for support when required

Recognised and understood my issue and gave excellent guidance on options available.

My initial meeting with Stephen was as a trauma patient at addenbrooke's where he replaced my left hip I had no hesitation in choosing him to replace the right hip a year later as a private patient. I found him extremely proffessional i felt very comfortable with him found him very easy to talk too. . He explained the process and all my procedures in a very clear and easy to understand way my personal experience both via NHS and privately confirmed that he always puts his patients best interst first .

Professor McDonnell did an excellent job operating on my left femur.

I could not have had a better experience all the way through from consultation to the operation and after care. Stephen kept informed all the way along. Will recommend to others.

Very clear about possible options and benefits and risks. Listened to what I wanted (to get back to sport after tearing ACL) and suggested best options.

Very professional. I really appreciated his willingness to explain and answer to questions

Very positive experience

Whole process clearly and fully explained accompanied with a calm and reassuring approach.
