Mr Robert Winterton

Written by a private patient at The Alexandra Hospital - part of Circle Health Group

I had my first consultation with Rob in April 2022 from my very first time meeting him he was down to earth honest and approachable. He was very thorough and explained all my options as well as the risks, and what to expect in recovery. Rob he wasn’t pushy and was happy for me to go away and think about what, If any option(s) I wanted to do. A few days later his Practice Manage Vicki called to discuss prices of the options, Vicki explained that if I knew what procedure I wanted and had a date in mind she could hold the date for me. I decided on which procedures I wanted and pre booked my date and second consultation. I had my second consultation in September 2022, Rob went over the risks, recovery and expected results my chosen procedures (Abdominoplasty and Mastopexy). Prior to surgery I had a conversation with a pharmacy nurse who went over any medication I take, and Ward Nurse to go over admission time and what to expect on the day and what items to bring with you. Before surgery I had an EKG and blood pressure and blood test. I had Surgery in December 2022 on the day of the procedure I was admitted at 7am, I was shown to my room and that the day nurse came in to take my height and weight so the Anaesthesiologist could work out the dosage of anaesthesia I would need. I met the Anaesthesiologist who ask some question about my current health and any other procedures I had had in the past. Then Rob came in to confirm the procedure and complete the forms and he explained that I was the 2nd patient on the list, I went down for surgery around 10:30 and next think I remember I was on back in my room, I had no pain while I was in the hospital, I did feel quite sick after (this is normal for me after any anaesthesia) I was discharged around 1pm the following day. I had my first post op appointment 5 days later where all my dressings were removed, and I was provided with my compression garment. I had a slight wound healing issue with one of my incisions in between Christmas and New Year I was seen the same day at The Alex and the wound nurse was lovely and re dresses that wound, and I left the dressing on for a week and then removed it a home and it had scabbed over nicely. I was driving after 4 weeks (was told a I was free to drive after 2 weeks) I had my second following at 6 weeks where my incisions were checked, and I was given the all clear to return to horse riding. I had my 6-month check-up last week and was signed off. I’m happy with my results and my expectations were handle amazingly. I would recommend Rob Winterton to everybody especially if you are looking for someone who is honest down to earth who is just a phone call or email away he is your Surgeon.

I was recommended to Rob Winterton by a friend who had surgery in 2022. From my first consultation I felt I had complete trust in him to do my upper eyelid blepharoplasty. I had no nervousness on the day of my op and it was a very easy ( on my part) procedure. The first few days after my op I had a fair bit of bruising but no discomfort or pain at all and the downtime was minimal, sutures were out within 5 days and I was back to work in 10 days albeit taking it easy. I had ice packs in the freezer to use on my eyes to reduce swelling and kept easy to prep meals in my fridge to make life easier whilst resting. Can honestly say it was a good experience from start to finish and the impact Robs surgery has made on me is amazing, forever grateful to him and his team for making it such a pleasurable experience.

Having seen numerous consultants for a breast reduction previously and having no luck or not feeling I had found 'the right fit', Mr Winterton came highly recommended to me. After my first consultation I knew I had found the 'right fit' for me. I felt completely comfortable & he listened to all of my wants, needs & worries. We had a great honest discussion about the whole experience start to finish and what techniques he would use, recovery time and what to expect going forward, how it worked & the process as a whole including realistic expectations post op. The aftercare I received from Mr Winterton and his whole team was second to none! Mr Winterton was caring and compassionate throughout it all & always made time to answer any questions or queries both pre and post op. I am now 8 weeks post op and although realistic expectations were discussed at prior appointments, I can honestly say that the results I got completely surpassed all of my expectations! I couldn't be happier with my choice. Genuinely changed my quality of life and I couldn't be more grateful.

I am a 68 year old lady and would have never considered plastic eye surgery ( eye lid lift) but my optician recommended that I need it doing, as it was affecting my vision be cause of my drooping eye lids. I was on the NHS waiting list for it to be done but nearly 2 years of waiting, I decided to go private. The care and understanding I have received from Robert and his team has been excellent. The care during the procedure was outstanding and the aftercare again outstanding. I would highly recommend Robert for any procedure. Thank you Robert, Vicky and your outstanding team.

Me Winterton was the third surgeon I consulted before my tummy tuck. I knew he was the right fit for me after his thorough examination, setting realistic expectations, in-depth information of what I could expect post op. His entire team were caring and true professionals. My surgery went smoothly and my results exceeded my expectations. The aftercare has been exceptional. Any query I had was answered immediately and I felt valued from start to finish.
