I first met Mr Turton when I was diagnosed with Breast cancer at St James' in November 2021. I was told that due to where the cancer was I would need a mastectomy and Mr Turton advised he would do an immediate reconstruction with a silicone implant. I was extremely happy with my reconstruction, I was dreading looking in the mirror after surgery but so happy with the results. Two years later, I've just undergone symmetry surgery on my other side as the mastectomy had left me lopsided. Second time round I had this operation at Spire Hospital in Leeds. I debated whether to go ahead with this surgery as I felt quite emotional about further surgery however Mr Turton gave me assurance surgery would be ok and I'm so pleased he did. I am so so happy with the results and it's made a massive difference to my confidence. I am only 38 and losing my breast was so scary but this surgery has made me feel like me again and I'm so grateful to Mr Turton and his surgical team for turning what was a very traumatic experience into something positive. I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Turton, he will act in the best interest for you as his patient and has such a calming and reassuring manner. You will be in the best possible hands.
