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.

I had been considering breast reduction surgery for at least 20 years, due to feeling out of proportion since my teens. Whilst my weight has fluctuated over the years, my breasts just seemed to get larger! After talking to a friend who had decided to go for surgery , I made a appointment for a consultation with Mr Turton. I'd been anxious about being vain but I was immediately put at ease by him and Gerry, even asked why I'd waited so long! The surgery was straight forward and the whole team at the hospital were fabulous. The first two months of recovery were straight forward with me taking care of myself. the third month, I tried to do too much but at my final appointment was reassured that any discomfort was part of the healing process. Now four months in I am still delighted with my shape, that clothes fit properly, I don't have to wear a bra to bed and that I'm even happy having my photo taken.

I was always small and slim but put on a great deal of weight suddenly in my late teens which shifted from everywhere except the breasts . No amount of dieting , exercising, breast feeding or menopause made any difference . I applaud body positivity but I had experienced so much body shaming and emotional abuse that this didn’t help me either If you are reading this I’m sure you will understand . A friend of mine had a very positive experience with Mr Turton and after reading an article by the very persuasive journalist Sali Hughes I decided to go for a Consultation . Normally I would run in the other direction from a hospital but I found Mr Turton very easy to talk to and I didn’t once feel embarrassed or upset . Nurse Gerry is a very clear communicator and grounded which helps a lot if you are an overthinker . I was very anxious on the day but everyone was super nice . I woke up with absolutely no nausea, no vomiting and completely pain free amazingly . Big thanks to the anaesthetist , ODA and Nurses . I was back at work 12 days later. Now 5 months later I feel so happy with my result. I feel I look the way I was meant to look : back to being slim and well proportioned with a better than I expected natural look with minimal scarring .My clothes fit me ! I love the feeling of being unburdened both physically and mentally . I hope this helps somebody with their decision . I honestly can’t thank Mr Turton enough for everything .
