Mr Hunter has restored my life. My total hip replacement was performed just over six weeks ago. I am walking without aids, driving and returning to work imminently. Mr Hunter has shown me absolute professionalism and has a wonderful bedside manner. I felt complete confidence in his can do attitude. I have been treated holistically and now embrace being pain free and function once again.

I thank Mr Hunter as well as the wider team for a very successful procedure that I can recommend 100%.
I had a catch up session today 12 weeks after my hip surgery. I had a successful surgery and 2 excellent catch up sessions
Seen Mr Hunter, on time, had a great chat about my procedure. The operation was a success, this was my second knee replacement done by Mr Hunter.A very nice doctor.
From my initial consultation with Mr Hunter I felt he listened carefully to my complaint, answered all my questions, explained what the treatment plan was and made sure I understood before proceeding to book me in for the robotic partial knee replacement.
Every thing was explained fully by mr hunter.I was made to feel at ease even though I was very nervous .The doctor was very approachable and understanding as were all the staff
From start to finish a very positive experience. Mr Hunter explained all my options before I chose to have a full knee replacement. I was well informed with both verbal conversations and written explanations. Aftercare was exceptional and felt I was listened too and my opinion mattered. Mr Hunter is very personable and put me at ease throughout the procedure.

Orthopaedic SurgeonI have known Tom since he started his practice locally. He is a very good clinician and a colleague. I have seen first hand how he deals with his patients with compassion, patience and empathy when he operated on a relative of mine. Technically he is very sound in both elective and trauma surgery. His speciality is Arthroplasty surgery and he is a very competent hip and knee surgeon. I am delighted to write this reference for Tom and wish him the best best in years to come.
