I first met Mr Atkinson when I was diagnosed with Arthritis in both knees. Mr Atkinson has consistently provided excellent care giving attention to detail. His friendly disposition and positive attitude has not only been noted by myself but by professionals who work alongside him Having now successfully had total knee replacements in both knees I am able to walk independently with no pain. I cannot speak highly enough of the care I have received from this consultant

Prior to being referred to Mr Atkinson back in 2016, my mobility in daily life and activities was severely restricted due to arthritis in both knees. On meeting with Mr Atkinson for the first time I found him to be very personable and friendly. He informed me that both my knees required total replacement surgery, and was very honest in adding that unfortunately both my hips would also need replacing in the future. Mr Atkinson has now performed all four replacement surgeries and I am extremely pleased with the outcome of these procedures and my recovery on each occasion. I sincerely believe that Mr Atkinson has literally given me back my life for which I will be eternally grateful, and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone requiring his particular expertise.

Mr Atkinson gave me all the reassurance I needed ahead of my foot operation. On the day of the operation he and his team were exceptional in their care and made me feel very comfortable. The three month after care was also great with all my questions answered very quickly in between my pre booked follow up appointments. Thank you so much.

Mr Atkinson replaced my 78 year old hip in October 2023. He had gone out of his way to operate as quickly as possible having seen the results of the MRI. The actual operation went smoothly and quickly. An extremely detailed report was sent to my GP and copied to me. After discharge, I took only paracetamol and that for only two weeks. I know no-one who has had as little pain after a hip replacement. I was able to walk confidently without sticks after 4 weeks. At the 6-8 week check, I was shown the X-ray of my hip and the 'made to measure' and perfectly fitted implant which may explain some of the above. At all stages of treatment both pre and post operation Mr Atkinson explained what would and what had happened. He answered every question patiently and in depth. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
