We were a little nervous before our son's appointment , but relieved that Dr Latimer had agreed to see him the following week from when we had made the initial contact - which showed complete dedication and care.
He made us feel instantly at ease smiling all the way through and explaining everything he was doing , as well as clearly instructing my son what to do during the consultation. This obviously helped a great deal due to my son's Autism.
Dr Latimer immediately made a diagnosis - which was followed by an x-ray ( he explained the x-ray as this was a first for my son)
The results were then explained in a clear thoughtful manner which showed the level of expertise and the dedication to his role , as well as to his patients.
Dr Latimer is a true professional and a complete gentleman - down to earth and fun with children, qualities that all health professionals should learn from!

I would like to say how well my right hip replacement went and to congratulate Mr. Latimer on the results I have had since has been tremendous.
I would not hesitate to recommend anyone for a procedure by Mr. Latimer at all and to be pain free is a new start to anyone.

I had two knee operations performed by Mr Latimer and he was absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process. He took the time to reassure me, to explain things very clearly beforehand and made me feel at ease before surgery. The surgery went well both times and Mr Latimer was very caring and is a brilliant surgeon. During follow up appointments over the years he has always been supportive, understanding and thorough. I would very highly recommend Mr Latimer and want to say thank you for everything you have done to help me.

Makes you feel completely at ease and explains everything carefully, fully and all his communication is first class.
My replacement knee operation could not have been better from my perspective and I am very grateful for his fantastic skills and personal care for me.
I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing the same operation.
