I am a woman in her mid-fifties who has recently undergone surgery for the removal of 13-year-old PIP implants. Mr Turton was the surgeon and the procedure was carried out at Nuffield Leeds Hospital. Initially, I had been hoping to find a surgeon close to my home, but Mr Turton had impressed me so much at consultation that I managed to overlook the fact that Leeds is over 6 hours away and double the distance of the 3 other surgeons I had also been considering. The most important criteria for me was to find someone with extensive experience in removing PIPs from women like myself, i.e. over 50 who didn't want replacement implants. Mr Turton addressed all my concerns with patience and understanding and even described the natural shape I would most likely achieve post-surgery, which has turned out to be spot on! The day of surgery flew by thanks to everyone involved in my care at Nuffield Leeds, all of whom put me at ease. I stayed overnight and left at lunchtime the next day, feeling well enough to make the journey back. This had been a major concern to me because of the distance involved and the fact that I would be travelling back alone. Thankfully, with the help of a couple of painkillers, this turned out not to be a problem at all. It's now 3 weeks later and I am really happy with my recovery. Post-operative pain has been very minimal and I was back at work 2 days later. I am delighted at the outcome of my surgery and am still trying to get my head round how, for the first time in my life, I have shapely natural boobs. Thank you, Mr Turton!

Dr Turton listened to my concerns and requests and adhered to both. He gave excellent pre and post operative care. I couldn't have received better if I'd gone private.

From my first meeting with Dr Turton I felt totally at ease with him and trusted that he had listened to what I wanted. You can tell her really takes pride in what he does and absolutely wants the best for his patients. Would 100% recommend!

I went to see Mr Turton after contacting his lovely secretary Lisa, to discuss a breast augmentation following having children and breastfeeding. I was very nervous about the consultation and examination, as I had not allowed anybody to see my chest in the previous 9 years due to massive self confidence issues. Mr Turton immediately made me feel at ease, and though I was still nervous about showing my chest, his manner and the general feel you get for a person when you first meet them, made me feel so much better and much more relaxed. He was very through and patient and I left feeling confident, not only in my decisions but in my surgeon even if giving up smoking was a stipulation of having my surgery I'm glad I did it and havent restarted. From the first consultation (I had two before my op) to the operation day itself and recovery Mr Turton has been kind, reassuring and not once have I worried under his care. He has changed my life!!! I am so much healthier for stopping smoking and I never would of quit if he hadn't insisted. I'm happier than I have been in so many years. Mr Turton gave me back my confidence and made me feel like a woman again with THE most wonderful natural looking breasts ever!!!! Thank you Mr Turton x

I honestly can't thank Mr Turton and his team enough for everything they have done for me, I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. From the moment I walked through the door he made me feel so at ease, a friendly smiley face and a generally nice person, really easy to talk to and you can ask him anything and he will answer honestly. Having been only 25 and having preventative breast surgery it was terrifiying but straight away when I knew he was doing the operation I knew I was in safe hands. He's amazing at what he does I would recommend him to anyone. The whole hospital experience was positive the staff and nurses were very kind and helpful, couldn't do enough for you. I had no problems after the surgery and now I'm healing well and practically back to normal, I'm so pleased with the results couldn't of asked for a better more professional surgeon. From the bottom of my heart thank you.
