I am a consultant oncoplastic breast surgeon working in NHS Lanarkshire, NHS Fife and NHS Forth Valley. I am on the GMC specialist register and have been a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in general and breast surgery since 2018. I completed a National Oncoplastic Fellowship at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield. I perform surgery for breast cancer and benign breast disease and specialise in breast reconstruction, including implant reconstruction, pedicled flap (LD) and fat transfer. I also undertake procedures for correcting asymmetry following breast cancer treatment, revisional breast surgery, salvage of breasts following surgical complications, and cosmetic breast surgery. Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review about your care.
I feel very disappointed by this doctor, It was my first app to get checked for breast cancer, I asked if there was a lady doctor available for the physical examination and he told me that I can get an appointment within 48 hours with a lady doctor to be later told there was nothing available until the next week, I didn’t want to wait this long due to stress so decided to stay with this doctor but he refused to see me after telling me incorrect information. I now have to wait another week in stress and worry to be checked.

Dr Cartlidge is AMAZING! I cannot tell you how much he’s changed my life. Aside from that he’s informative, safety focused and has a warming personality that puts you at ease. He also asked me to go and do my own research before committing. We’re very lucky to have a doctor such as Dr Cartlidge

I am really pleased with my results, I was self conscious about my body and after my surgery I feel like a new person. I am so proud to show off what amazing work Chris done and very greatful for him carrying out my surgery.

Mr Cartlidge is a fantastic surgeon. From the moment I met him I was so glad he was going to be the one doing my operation. He takes the time to explain everything in a Very professional manner. Too many questions are not a problem for him and thus you feel at ease. It’s very obvious he has so much passion in everything he does as a breast surgeon and this shows during each consultation with him.

From the minute I walked into the breast clinic and met Mr Cartlidge I had a great feeling of trust . He came across very kind and caring. I wasn’t wrong . I had such a good experience in his care and the work he did for me was so good with amazing results and minimal discomfort. He made me feel safe and no question was to much . If only all surgeons were as kind as this man . Definitely 5 stars from me ..The NHS are so lucky to have this talented caring doctor .

Dr Cartlidge, has a great manor and put me at ease instantly. He explained my procedure in terms (and wee pictures) that both my husband and I understood.

Mr Cartlidge is a fantastic surgeon. He really cares about his patients and will always go the extra mile to ensure they get the best care. He is such a gentleman, and so kind to other members of staff. He always has time for everyone, and encourages his patients to ask questions.
