AI Review Summary
This summary was created by AI based on recent reviews
Mr Scott MacInnes shows professional and excellent patient care. He gives clear details and puts patients at ease. Operations bring great pain relief and improve movement. Many see him for rotator cuff repair, shoulder replacement, frozen shoulder, and shoulder pain.
Having lived with a non existent non working shoulder for 2 years I was pleased to have it replaced. The operation went really well . I excercised every day under the guidance of my physio. I told Mr Macinnes it was the best thing I'd ever done. I thanked him profusely. I am so pleased I can do lots of things now that we're impossible to do. I am now able to hold up my hair dryer above my head and I can lift up my arm to peg washing on the line. I can't thank Mr Macinnes and his team enough. If you have doubts just be brave and start a new chapter.
Gave clear description of my x ray and explained what will happen after the MRI and any follow up if required.
I find Mr Macinnes to be highly professional and extremely courteous at all times.

Mr Madhavan Papanna
Orthopaedic SurgeonMr MacInnes has been a colleague of mine for 13 years now. We trained in South Yorkshire together as registrars and started as consultants together within a few months of each other at Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals. During that time I have witnessed him deal with some complex trauma and elective surgeries. He always strives to deliver first class surgical care and operates on every patient with the upmost care and precision. He has excellent communication skills and holds patient satisfaction at the core of all that he does.
