Share review of Mr Rupert Clifton
I have known Mr Rupert Clifton as an out-patient for nearly four years during which time he guided me through treatment for osteo-arthritis in my left knee. He always listened to my description of the condition, and laid out the options before me. The decision was always mine, guided by him, but never taken by him.
When I felt that the treatments had done all they could and the arthritis was affecting the quality of my life, Mr Clifton supported me in the decision to opt for knee replacement. He described the whole process of designing, procurring and fitting the replacement. He also explained what might go wrong and the risks, which are pretty much the same for any surgery of this kind. He also set out the costs and funding options. The great thing I remember was his absolute confidence in the decision - it instantly quelled any qualms I may have had. The day of the operation was perfect, I felt surrounded by a highly skilled team who supported me the whole time and I felt safe and confident throughout. Post operative support has been equally top notch. If you are looking for an osteo- surgeon, I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Clifton.
