I came to Mr Hatrick in a difficult position just over a year ago having been in a lot of pain and needing a shoulder replacement at a young age. Having lost trust with previous consultants I cannot emphasise how professional and trustworthy I found mr Hatrick from the very first consultation. Given my circumstances I found mr Hatrick’s guidance and rational to be so useful in my path to getting better, at no point did I feel like I was being rushed through a process or just part of a statistic. He is very approachable, kind and is always willing to spend the time to listen to your questions or worries and answer/reassure you as best possible. As for the end result I could not recommend him more, he did a great job over two operations and I now find myself in a much better position to move forward with no pain. My only regret is that by the time It comes round to my final replacement, mr Hatrick would have long been retired from his career!

Mr Hatrick performed a right anterior stabilisation to my right shoulder. He was very pleasant and informative pre operatively and despite having found more damage than expected during the operation he is clearly very skilled at his job, I had four anchors put in. I am now 3 months post op with full range of motion at the shoulder and looking to be back climbing at month 6.
Couldn't have asked for better care or a more well respected and skilful orthopaedic surgeon.
Thank you.

Mr Hatrick operated on my right shoulder. He had previously repaired my left rotator cuff 5 years previously.
He is obviously very skilled in his field and is very professional, pleasant and likable.
I was very pleased when I was referred to him having had a successful operation on the previous occasion. Although the tendon was completely torn through and retracted on this shoulder meaning that the operation was more lengthy and complicated, the result has been excellent.
Obviously a top surgeon in his field.

My new shoulder has been painless (only some discomfort in the early 3 months), and has great movement already ( I am following all of the suggested exercises). Mr Hatrick has been supportive and has an excellent manner with patients. I cannot suggest any improvements as my experience has been terrific.

The mention of my name will send a shiver down Cameron's neck having shared my traumatic shoulder history.
What impressed me most about Cameron was when the shoulder wasn't behaving as it was expected to after the first couple of operations he was very open about wanting another surgeon to review what he had done before commiting to any further treatment.
Explains everything very clearly and very good at responding to emails.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him, and although not keen for any more surgery wouldn't think twice about using him again..

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!).
