Reviews
Dr. Gibbs changed my life. From our first visit, he was kind, patient, and took the time to explain everything about my hip replacement. I felt confident and cared for every step of the way.
The surgery and recovery went far better than I expected, and I’m now walking without pain again. I’m incredibly grateful for Dr. Gibbs’ skill and compassion and would recommend him without hesitation.
I recently had a total hip replacement, I am now 7 weeks post op and life has been back to normal( with increased mobility) for a few weeks now.
The care I have received from Mr Gibbs and his team has been exemplary, while the thought of a hip replacement was daunting I knew it was the best solution but I was put at ease and reassured all the time.
Have nothing but admiration for Mr Gibbs and all the team who have given me back my mobility with a new hip. Even though it’s early days after the surgery I feel so much stronger and have been looked after throughout the process. Can’t thank you enough.
I’m so glad I was under Mr Gibbs excellent care.
I’ve just had two total hip replacements, a few weeks apart & I felt extremely confident of what to expect as he explained it all and took time to answer all my questions.
His approachable, knowledgeable, reassuring &, most of all, kind manner put me completely at ease for the first major surgery I’ve ever had.
Both ops went well & the recoveries have been a lot easier than I anticipated.
Also had an excellent experience due to the attention and great care of all the support staff at Nuffield Haywards Heath.
I can’t recommend Mr Gibbs enough - absolutely brilliant surgeon. Thank you.
James Gibbs and his team were amazing from day 1 of reviewing my hip surgery case to operation day everything ran smoothly, professional, personable and caring describes James and his entire team, thank you.
