Dr Corbett welcomed me into his office at Fortius gave me a chair next to his desk. He sat opposite and his smile immediately relaxed me and made me feel comfortable. He asked how I was now feeling and listened carefully to my answers. He talked me through the recovery process and explained everything I asked him about it. He showed me the Xray which had just been taken and explained that it all looked very good. He then stood next to me and gently stretched my left arm in different directions to see what movement I now have. He was very pleased and praised my physio therapy efforts. Recommended I continue for another few months which could give me as much as 10-15% more movement. I was very happy about the status and prognosis. I came away feeling that he really cared, is extremely professional, and confident that I am now ready to get back to normal life, playing golf etc. Altogether he is an excellent doctor and I am very lucky to have been introduced to him.

I have been a patient of Mr Steven Corbett for over 20 years and have benefited from his expert care on a number of occasions during that time. I have undergone a number of complex shoulder-related surgical procedures under his care, all of which have been successful. Steven is thoroughly professional and clearly an expert in his field, but he combines that expertise with an excellent manner. He is serious when he needs to be, while remaining approachable, friendly and very easy to talk to. He has looked after me again following my most recent shoulder injury, providing excellent advice and guidance throughout. He took the time to explain everything clearly, including the various options available to me, which allowed me to understand the position properly and reach a reasoned and informed decision about the best way forward. Having known Steven as a patient for more than two decades, I have complete confidence in his judgement and expertise and would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him.

I came to Mr Corbett after a misdiagnosis by a GP and following physio which aggravated the fractured bone. Mr Corbett was very knowledgable including leveraging his own research, explained my diagnosis and prognosis very clearly and now I finally have a plan of action. He is very calming presence which is so important in a surgeon. Would definitely recommend to anyone with shoulder injury.

I have been a patient of Mr Steven Corbett for approximately twenty years, during which time I have undergone several complex procedures under his care. Throughout that period, Steven has consistently demonstrated the clinical expertise and calm reassurance that one hopes for but does not always find in a surgeon. His manner is warm without being informal, and his communication before and after each procedure has always been clear and straightforward. I recommend him without reservation to anyone considering shoulder-related treatment.

Skill Endorsements

I have worked with Steve for many years and have enormous respect for him both as a surgeon and as a colleague. He is, in my view, one of London’s leading shoulder and elbow surgeons. His surgical expertise is exceptional, but what patients consistently value just as much is the way he communicates with them. They frequently come back to us saying how kind and approachable he is, how clearly he explains their diagnosis and treatment options, and, importantly, how well he listens to them. I have referred many patients to Steve over the years and have always had complete confidence that they w...
