His overall approach to patients its amazing. The surgical work he has done on me has not faulted and improved my quality of life massively. Without this man, I fear that could never really walk well. His personality is fun, and bubbly. A clever, funny brilliant man, that performs incredible surgeries.

I thought Mr Latimer was brilliant from start to finish. I felt really comfortable in his care and completely trusted that he had my best interests at heart. Although there was no guarantee of a great outcome I still knew he would do his best for me and felt I couldn't have a better consultant. I had a quicker than expected recovery and although I worked very hard on my rehab, it wouldn't have been possible without him doing such a good job. He's a lovely guy, a first class surgeon and I would recommend him to anyone.
