Why patients choose this practice
Diagnosis before decision
No operation is scheduled on a guess. Many patients who arrive expecting surgery leave with a treatment plan instead.
Costs in writing, first
A written estimate covering surgeon, theatre, anaesthesia, implants and expected stay before you are asked to consent.
Keyhole most of the time
Ninety-five per cent of procedures are completed through keyhole access; the rest are open because open was the safer call.
Second opinions
If surgery has been advised elsewhere, bring the scans and the plan. Reviewing another surgeon’s recommendation is routine.
