I really appreciate the time Mr Norton spent with me at the consultation. He took great care in explaining the procedure for my total hip replacement which really reassured me and put me at ease. I'm looking forward to my new hip.

I met Mr Norton for the first time after years of bilateral hip pain which had been classified as non specific and possibly referred pain from a lower back problem. At that first consultation, at which a recent pelvis X-ray was available, Mr Norton immediately diagnosed bilateral hip dysplasia. Not a common condition in men of my age. I was offered injections into the hip joint which provided temporary relief and was told that when I felt it was the right time for me, Mr Norton would replace the hip joints with the titanium/ceramic prosthesis. I had my right hip joint replaced in October 2017 and was back at work at 6 weeks post op, pain free. I had the left hip joint replaced in August 2018, the recovery has been slightly longer, but the hip joint is pain free. I would like to thank Mr Norton and his team for swiftly identifying the problem, offering solutions and ultimately providing the appropriate intervention. I thoroughly recommend Mr Norton whose straight forward approach is very refreshing and gave me, the patient, great confidence.
