Being embarrassed to go for a consultation held me back! If the initial consultation is your fear factor more than the surgery think no more with Mr Turton! I have never developed breasts, I’ve always wanted surgery but I’m embarrassed and self conscious with how I look the thought of having to be topless for someone would put me in tears. With years of holding back and how unhappy I am I decided to do my research and finally went for a consultation after reading Mr Turton’s reviews. I had tears even speaking to him about it, the surgery and recovery isn’t an issue I’m prepared for that but getting topless for him and his assistant was a nightmare. From start to finish through my consultation I felt reassured and not to be embarrassed, I felt comfortable talking to them which made it easier for me. He went through all options, me aware of things I didn’t know doing my own research, I felt no pressure to go ahead with the surgery it was left with me with the information given and walked out the room proud that I FINALLY went. There isn’t anything with my experience so far that would make me think otherwise to go for surgery with Mr Turton and I can’t thank him enough. I massively appreciate the support his assistant (Vicki I believe) gave me too, she made me feel at ease and went that extra mile to speak to me alone when I left. I honestly left with a big weight off my shoulders and a lot more confident in something that could be life changing.

I'm so glad that I chose Mr Philip Turton to perform my elective bilateral breast reduction surgery. He explained what the procedure would involve and listened to what I wanted. His comprehensive information and advice was sent to me, which I followed. After 12 weeks the result is even better than I could have hoped for, with no post-op problems, surprisingly little discomfort, straightforward healing and minimal scarring. I look and feel so much better, and years younger! Mr Turton is friendly and approachable and, most importantly, extremely skilled at what he does. I would recommend him unreservedly as a breast surgeon. Coincidentally, I have a friend on whom Mr Turton performed what I understand was a complex breast reconstruction surgery some years ago, although I didn't know this until I was already on his waiting list. She too was, and still is, delighted with the result and speaks very highly of him. When she heard that he would be my breast surgeon she told me "You've chosen the best!"

I honestly cannot thank Mr Turton enough! I originally booked to see Mr Turton to undergo breast implant exchange. However, despite me having some complexities with having capsular contractor in one of my breast, he decided the best option for me was implant removal, capsulectomy and breast uplift, then with a view of having implants in 6 months post op. I will be honest, at first I was a little disheartened at the thought of not having my implants as I had them in when I was 21 years old so felt a little scary. Approaching the operation I was a little apprehensive at what the end result would be, prior to surgery Mr Turton came around to see me and really put my mind at ease. He has a lovely nature, very kind and sympathetic but at the same time super professional and you really feel at ease in his care. Post op, I had really great care, Mr Turton came around again to see me the following morning, make sure I was ok and inspect my breasts. I have to say a massive thank you to Dee who really was incredible throughout, both before the op talking me through things, making me feel at ease as my husband wasn't able to be there due to covid restrictions. Post op, I saw Dee weekly for dressing changes, she really was great, she clearly did care for my wellbeing which was really nice. 4 months post op, I am surprisingly really happy with my breasts. I am very athletic and workout a lot so it really is nice to not have to worry about my implants anymore. Above all, I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Turton to anyone, he really is great. Very professional and knowledgeable but also very thoughtful and really does care for his patients wellbeing.

Having a breast reduction has totally changed my life. I move, sleep, and dress differently since my physical and psychological burden has been removed, thanks to Mr Turton. From the initial consultation to the final post op meeting, he was totally understanding and reassuring, as were all the nurses that provided the aftercare. Anyone considering this procedure, I cannot recommend him highly enough, and I am delighted with my results.

I came across Dr Turton after a recommendation from an online support group. I had some concerning issues with my large breast implants that had been in situ for around 12 years. I had previously seen a few other Drs and none of them seemed to take my concerns seriously. I travelled from London to see Mr Turton and I am so pleased I did. He was pragmatic and practical and we very quickly agreed on a treatment plan to remove my implants and perform a breast lift. He was very honest about what I would look like after. The operation went well and I am very pleased with the end result. It has been a significant change for me and not only did Mr Turton care about my physical health, he wanted to ensure my sense of body image was healthy as well. I really felt like he genuinely cared. I could not be happier with the care I received.
