Mr Turton was recommended to me by a close friend. I needed a reduction. An operation I have wanted for probably 20 years. I was obviously apprehensive, but I left my first consultation with almost a spring in my step. Talking to Mr Turton put me so much at ease, and filled me confidence, that I could have the shape I’d longed for. His ‘bedside manner’ was lovely. Very sympathetic, supportive and positive. The same can be said of the nurses that work with him. My op was fine. I had drains in that were removed the next day, and steri strips along the incision line. The rest of the stitches were internal. I have to say, that afterwards, I had very little pain. Paracetamol was all I required after discharge from hospital. The scar is very tidy, and I’ve had no problems with my breasts since the op. I have gone down three cup sizes, and Mr Turton removed a whopping 5lb of breast tissue. I will continue singing the praises of Mr Turton and his team. I love my new breasts

After being back and forth for 3 years deciding if i am ready to go ahead with a much wanted breast reduction, i decided to just go for it! In February 2021 Dr Turton carried out my breast reduction surgery and i found the whole process really easy and reassuring. The recovery was not half as bad as i was expecting. I took only 2 weeks off work cause you do really need that rest to recover well. With regular check-ups I was back to work and driving in 2 weeks with no problems. The aftercare was also amazing. I was recommended Dr Turton through a friend who had a breast increase by him and she spoke really highly off him so i already felt i was in good hands choosing this doctor. I honestly think he is the best surgeon in Leeds for breast treatment. I was really unhappy with my breast before, i was a heavy 36F with a small frame & it really affected my happiness, self confidence & my well-being. I am now a very happy 36C with a uplift & I feel in proportion now with my body frame. It might be an expensive procedure but my quality of life & well-being have improved so much since my surgery, its worth every penny. Thank you Dr Turton for changing my life! (:

I had a breast augmentation and lift, and they're absolutely perfect. I'm so glad I took Dr Turtons advice and went with a size that suited my body shape. Along the whole process I felt I had an expert in his field whose advice I could trust completely. He's an absolute perfectionist!! I strongly advise to opt for a hospital service like I received with Dr turton at Spire, it might be more costly compared to these day clinics but you know you're completely safe and that's so important when you're undergoing surgery like this to have that extra care. I also had a fear of being put to sleep but he totally put me at ease and his communication was amazing. Anything I needed he was there to take my call and answer my questions. The nurses who support him are also amazing, always on hand to help Highly recommend Turton and his team. Worth every penny

I was recommended Mr Turton by a few people and I wanted to go with a surgeon who was known for his work. Meeting Mr Turton was a professional and good experience. He listened to my hopes and worries and explained everything until I was happy. Unfortunately Covid hit us all bad and Spire hospital put a stop to all cosmetic surgeries. The wait made me know for certain I wanted my implants out. I had them in for 18 years but 2021 was my year to be free and me again. When I got the call from Mr Turton’s Secretery I started crying. I got my date and I just prayed it didn’t change. From start to finish Mr Turton was exceptional. I couldn’t have asked for more. I felt very taken care of. On top of this the surgery went amazingly. I have healed well and I’m over joyed with my natural breasts. I opted for no up lift, just explant. I had them in at 20 years old and out at 38. I had 3 children in all that time. I have just had my last check and I was actually sad that I wouldn’t be back. Mr Turton is a Gentleman and more importantly for me .. a top class surgeon. I would recommend any women seeking advise for something similar to me to head his way at Spire Leeds. This surgery has been life changing and the quality of my life has dramatically improved thanks to Mr Turton. A thousand thank yous and more. X

I had been wanting breast augmentation for so long and went to see Mr Turton who instantly put me at ease, asked me what I was wanting to achieve and talked me through everything. He answered all of my questions I had regarding the surgery and recovery. I am now 6 months post-op and I am so happy! From the moment of my first consultation to my last appointment I was made to feel at ease with everything and nothing was too much to ask. I am really happy with the outcome and my confidence has been boosted so much after wanting this for so long, I definitely made the right choice by choosing Mr Turton. Gerry is also fabulous and is always at the end of the phone to answer any questions I may have!
