Having suffered for many years with arthitis in my left shoulder which impacted greatly on my quality of life and my ability to perform normal everyday tasks I was greatly relieved to finally have my operation in August 2021. The delay caused by the cancelation of operations due to Covid left me in excruciating pain which severely impacted my ability to sleep and consequently my ability to function normally during the day. The operation itself had been fully explained to me and entailed an overnight stay in hospital. The follow up care with nurses from my local practice and ongoing physiotherapy enabled me to slowly progress to a pain free full mobility of my shoulder. Mr Hatrick and all his team are to be highly recommended for the wonderful work that they do. A sincere thank you to everyone involved in my care.

I am a fit and active 76 year old man who 6 months ago underwent rotator cuff repair surgery performed by Mr Cameron Hatrick. I had a badly torn supraspinatus muscle as well as a displaced L H biceps tendon which needed to be cut and re-attached. At our first consultation, proper diagnosis and treatment had already been delayed 2 years, partly due to the disruptions Covid caused the NHS but also because I was unaware of the seriousness of my injury until the pain eventually became intolerable. Mr Cameron Hatrick warned there was a risk of surgery being unsuccessful because of my age, as well as tissue having atrophied since the injury. He could see how keen I was to return to the fitness activities I enjoyed, so he agreed to operate.
Six months on from surgery, I am extremely pleased with the result and am almost back to my former flexibility and strength. As advised, I now take considerable care not to undo the great surgery that was done. An essential part of my recovery was the skillful follow-up physiotherapy treatment by Gary Nicholson of Radius Healthcare. Whilst Mr Cameron Hatrick has a pleasant manner, he is not one to indulge in lengthy conversation, preferring to get straight to the point. I found him to be clear in his explanations of surgical procedures. Clearly, he is a very capable and talented surgeon.

I would highly recommend Mr Hatrick. After a thorough assessment he made a diagnosis. I felt listened to and heard. My treatment options were clearly explained. I was well supported throughout my treatment with regular follow-up appointments. Not only has my shoulder issue improved, but so has my overall health as a result of Mr Hatricks holistic approach to the delivery of care.

Profile
Cameron Hatrick trained at Clare College, Cambridge and St. Thomas’ Hospital, London qualifying in 1990. He underwent Basic Surgical Training on the St Bartholomew’s rotation, London and then specialised in Orthopaedics on the South East Thames Orthopaedic rotation.
He undertook two fellowships in Sydney, Australia, sub-speacialising in shoulder and hand surgery.
The first fellowship was with Professor Michael Tonkin in the Department of Hand Surgery and Peripheral Nerve Surgery at the Royal North Shore Hospital. The second fellowship was with Professor David Sonnabend in the Department of Orthopaedics, Prince of Wales Hospital and also with Professor William Walsh in the Orthopaedic Research Laboratories in the same hospital.
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. From September 2009 until February 2013 he was the lead orthopaedic consultant for BSUH NHS Trust. He was a member of council for the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS) from 2015-2018. He is currently Medical Director of The Montefiore Hospital in Hove. 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 is a faculty member of the Watanabe Club, which runs regular shoulder arthroscopy courses around the UK introducing surgeons to arthroscopic shoulder surgery and teaching advanced techniques to established surgeons. He has lectured at international meetings and lectures regularly at Brighton and Sussex Medical School and on the South East Thames Orthopaedic Rotation. He has set up and runs a regular open surgical skills course and, in 2005, he was appointed a Visiting Fellow at the Brighton University Faculty of Health in recognition of his contribution to post-graduate teaching. He is also a member of the British Orthopaedic Association (BOA) and the British Elbow and Shoulder Society (BESS).
Cameron is married with three children (all now in their 20's) and enjoys playing tennis (unfortunately being beaten easily by his son!), cycling, skiing, hiking on the Downs/ in the Lakes/ Snowdonia, sailing and windsurfing (fair-weather only nowadays!).
