Reviews
Mr Hatrick is always welcoming, very careful to explain procedures and did a tremendous repair job on my shoulder and rotator cuff,
I am absolutely delighted with the surgery and monitoring of my progress.
I received a quality, professional service end to end.
Pre-op consultation communication from staff, through to examination. On the day of my procedure, I ws extremely apprehensive about being sent to sleep. However, the staff provided reaasurance throughout the process.
Post op consultation continued in the same vein.
Very pleased.
Very pleased with treatment of broken shoulder. Grateful to have mobility returned after surgery and physio. He did an excellent job and explained recovery process fully.
Thank you Mr Hatrick and team!
Mr Hatrick was friendly, kind and informative on our very first meeting, and he took great care of me during my procedure. He has regularly monitored my progress throughout my recovery period and has now advised me to continue with my exercise regime in order for me to fully recover.
Mr Hatrick always makes you feel relaxed and he carefully explains everything before you make your decision. I cannot fault this amazing doctor.
Mr Hatrick both treated me with care and an understanding of my condition showing me a model of the shoulder joint and explanation of 'frozen shoulder' and how the capsular release would, hopefully, help.
He also made me aware of any risks and the percentages that went with them.

He undertook two fellowships in Sydney, Australia, sub-speacialising in shoulder and hand surgery.

In November 1999 he was awarded the Walter Mercer Gold Medal and the Arthur Edward Burton Memorial Prize for his performance in the Intercollegiate Specialty Examination in Orthopaedic Surgery. The following year he was nominated as the British Orthopaedic Association ‘Young Ambassador’ to the Hong Kong Orthopaedic Association at their annual congress.
In 2001 he was appointed as a consultant orthopaedic surgeon at the Royal Sussex County Hospital, now the Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust (BSUH). He has developed a successful multi-disciplinary, ‘one-stop’ shoulder clinic based in Lewes Victoria Hospital with an on-site radiology colleague undertaking investigations as required and advanced physiotherapy practitioners reviewing patients alongside him in the clinic. He was the lead orthopaedic surgeon for the Sussex Orthopaedic Treatment Centre from its opening in June 2006 until September 2009.

His practice covers the full range of arthroscopic and open shoulder surgery, including ASAD, arthroscopic and open shoulder stabilisation, SLAP repair, arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, shoulder replacement (anatomical and reverse) and fixation of upper limb fractures.
Teaching and Training is a particular interest of his.

He has lectured at international meetings and lectures regularly at Brighton and Sussex Medical School and on the South East Thames Orthopaedic Rotation.
