Hip surgery is not a walk in the park but having had hip replacement on both sides I would not wish to choose anyone else. His attention to you as a patient is first class. I have always been made to feel at ease with the whole procedure and he has been very clear about what to expect. My sincere thanks.

Heartfelt thanks for waving your magic wand (called surgery)! I intend to keep myself as fit and healthy as possible, so as not to squander the pain free gift of my new hip! I hope to that at a later date I should require similar surgery on my right hip, I shall be fortunate enough to return to you and your team at Circle.

Dear Mr Burwell, This is just a short note as I wasn't able to see you personally. I wanted to thank you directly for the procedure that you carried out so successfully. It was interesting when your colleague consultant was reviewing the "after" X-Ray and was heard to exclaim "what a brilliant job Mr Burwell has done for you". Whilst I obviously don't have that same degree of expertise, I fully agree and thought it only fair that I would write to thank you for your skill, advice, efficiency and reassurance.
