My 2nd hip replacement with Mr Millington. I totally trust him as the first one was a total sucess.
I saw Mr Millington about my knee. He was keen to hear my story, and then to look at the investigations I had already had. His explanation of the problem was clear an he was able to plan a management plan with me. He listened to my concerns and was honest about how I might be affected in the future. Fortunately, I need no surgical intervention at this stage and can be managed by appropriate rest and physiotherapy. He tackled my issues with clarity and professionalism and left me knowing exactly what I needed to do.
