Orthopaedic Surgery
Simon is a highly respected surgeon. From an early stage Simon showed himself to be a safe and effective clinician. This is evidenced by his elective practice. As a young adult hip specialist he is a fantastic communicator and makes sure that his patients are fully understanding of all the management options available for their particular condition.
