Mr Turton is a very professional and talented surgeon. From our first meeting, through my surgery and during follow up consultations he was so kind. All aspects of the surgery were discussed, together with why the options available for me were the best fit for my situation. I had preventative double mastectomy with reconstruction, and after less than 2 months I was back to full activity and very pleased with the outcome. I followed Mr Turtons directions for recovery to the letter and had no complications. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

This procedure is something I have wanted for so long even as a young teen I have thought about it so to finally have it i have never been happier. I had seen dr Turton when I was 17 and he instantly made me feel comfortable and that somebody understood the reasoning for my decision, I knew straight then I could tell him anything and he would just get it. When it came to the surgery date I made stupid mistakes which created problems and resulted in me being unable to go through with the surgery that date as it would of been unsafe. When hearing that news I was distraught and constantly crying, he did everything possible to comfort me (all staff did) and made me laugh to deter my thoughts from the negatives. I understood he was doing the right thing which is another reason as to why I would recommend him to everyone (even my friend from my job is going to him) as most doctors would go ahead with it anyway. The next day I received multiple phone calls and emails from the hospital asking how I was which made me feel so welcome, looked after and I couldn’t wait to go back, they even started to make plans of when it will be rescheduled which made me over the moon. I got another date for 6 weeks in the future which to me is insane because i knew how long the waiting list is and will forever be grateful for how fast they got me in. Fast forward my new date, Dr Turton got me seen asap and when drawing the stencils on me got me to sit down as that had been an issue before, in order to avoid any more problems that occurred last time. He made light jokes of the last time which I appreciated as it made me feel less embarrassed by the situation as I get embarrassed quickly. He constantly checked on my wellbeing and made sure all my recovery process was stress free. When my check ups came around he always made sure I left without any questions and was fully aware of my situation and how I was recovering. If you are looking for a brilliant, kind, comforting and wonderful surgeon go with Dr Turton

Dr. Turton and his team were amazing. I had been dealing with back and neck pain for decades due to a large chest that constantly grew no matter what I did, exercise or diet. He listened, didn't judge or treat me like I didn't know my own body. He presented me with all my options and treated me with respect and care. I had a reduction and for the first time in my life I am pain free and starting to finally feel comfortable in my own body. I would highly recommend him and his team.

Saw several surgeons before meeting mr Turton, upon entering I knew he was the one, he was thorough, he put my anxiety at ease and answered every question I had throughout, nothing short of amazing, I have friends who have used him, and friends booked in with him for the future, and I will continue to recommend, Gerry his nurse is also always there and makes you feel so comfortable.
