I was treated for a torn rotator cuff this year by Mr. Talbot, from the initial consultation through to the aftercare. He was excellent throughout. He clearly explained my options and what the long-term outcome might look like with or without surgery. I chose to proceed with the operation and carefully followed the aftercare plan. I am very grateful for the work Mr. Talbot carried out. I now have full functionality back in my shoulder, as if I had never experienced any issues. Everything was clearly explained and well-managed throughout the process. Thank you!

This visit was to discuss my progress after 6 weeks. Mr Talbot showed me the images that he took and explained very clearly what this meant. I was very satified with the result.

I've had two operations, (both shoulders,) done by Mr Talbot, he is an amazing surgeon. Both he and his secretary Michelle are extremely competent and caring. I am extremely pleased and couldn't wish for a better treatment.

I saw Mr Talbot because I had a frozen shoulder. Mr Talbot fully explained what the problem was and how he could help. He was very courteous and put me at ease on each visit.

I was lucky enough to have surgery under Charlie’s care at The Duchy, Harrogate. Charlie is everything you want from a surgeon; informative, honest, professional & a very gifted surgeon (also devastatingly good looking, which is of course irrelevant!) I’m now a month on & unbelievably have no visible scarring & almost full range of movement (which is normal for this stage of recovery).
