Simon Britten

“Mr Britten is without a doubt the best surgeon I could have asked for after having an accident and an Ilizarov frame fitted. I was frightened, scared, worried, emotional and Mr Britten made the whole experience so much better. His kindness, care and knowledge are second to none.”

“Mr Britten is one of the best doctors I've ever seen. He's incredible, kind and compassionate and always takes the time to ensure you feel fully heard and that treatment options and next steps are fully explained … at every appointment I have always felt better after speaking to him. His manner with patients is fantastic and he made an incredibly scary time that bit more manageable. He has always taken my concerns seriously and has never dismissed any of my questions or worries.”

“Mr Britten has been an excellent consultant and I'm incredibly grateful for the care, support and compassion he has shown me over the last 16 months.”

“I found Mr Britten the most professional, empathetic, caring and non-condescending consultant I have ever had or seen. He has a way of putting both my wife and myself at ease, and explaining the situation I faced with utmost accuracy and detail, both showing us and explaining in terms that we could comprehend clearly, not only the positives but the negatives that we could face. A very humble and approachable man …”

“Mr Britten is the epitome of professionalism … my consultations never felt rushed.
