Mr Latimer was professional and friendly from our first meeting. Easy to talk to plus replies were explained and easy to understand. Total hip replacement was carried out. No problems before during or after surgery. Looking forward to other hip being done in the near future.

Mr Latimer saw my teenage daughter in January with a first rib break. He had such a lovely bedside manner and instantly put my daughter at ease, he also made us laugh! He listened to my daughter well and was very thorough and knowledgeable. His secretary Mandy was very quick to respond to my emails and was helpful and friendly in her replies. Even the follow up letter to the initial consultation was sent within days. I would recommend Mr Latimer in a heart beat, especially from a paediatric perspective. A lovely consultant.

I saw Mr Latimer for an elective total hip replacement. During consultation I found Mr Latimer very easy to talk too, he listened to my concerns, he explained the procedure fully reassuring me , leaving me confident I was in good hands. He was equally calming and assured pre and post operation. The whole operation delivered as planned, resulting in a much neater and smaller scar than I had anticipated. I followed all the teams post operation recovery guidance and was discharged exactly as planned. Very pleased with the results, highly recommend.
