Reviews
His way of greeting and introduction is to shake hands, then proceeds to listen and keep eye contact. This is the 4th time I have seen him since 2013 and he remembered me and enquired after my health.
I have had a number of occasions in the past when I had referred to a consultant and they had not been a pleasant experience.
Mr Henry Atkinson is, in my view, a gentleman as well an excellent orthopedic consultant and surgeon. I recently referred my daughter-in-law to him because 2 previous consultants had been less than helpful.
All my treatment has been via NHS for which I am extremely grateful to have been treated by Mr Atkinson. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.
Mr Atkinson was welcoming and informative at my first appointment and remained so throughout my treatment.
My operation for reconnecting my broken Achilles Tendon was successful and my leg continues to improve. Mr Atkinson says it will be eighteen months before fully back to normal and I'm looking forward to that.
I am a patient and I am also a GP. I do a lot of yoga and also go on walking holidays. I have seen Mr Atkinson both about a hammer toe and a cartilage tear in my knee. One episode was with the NHS and one privately.
Mr Atkinson takes a good history and forms his own opinion but also listens to the concerns of the patient and does not try to push any particular course of action. He is enthusiastic and up to date and creative with ideas but always realistic and tailors advice according to the patient's situation and perspective.
He is also very approachable, a good communicator and very helpful.
He operated on my foot and my knee, both times efficiently and with successful outcomes. I have continued to do a lot of yoga and recently went on a 200 km mountain trek in Crete.
I would highly recommend Mr Atkinson and I cannot make any suggestion for improvement.
I found Mr Atkinson very approachable and he happily answered any questions or queries I had regarding my operation. I always felt he had time for you and didn't try and rush me.
Dr Atkinson explained everything regarding my treatment very clearly and carried out the treatment as explained i had a total hip replacement and the day after my surgery the long term pain had finally gone absolutely amazing i reccomend his procedure to anyone looking to resolve years of pain..... fantastic surgeon i cant thank him enough.
