Reviews
"Mr. N. Cameron Hattrick is an exceptional orthopedic surgeon who treated my acute calcific tendonitis, which I had endured for five days. Upon examination, he swiftly diagnosed the issue and efficiently arranged x-rays, confirming the diagnosis. He promptly coordinated additional treatment, including calcium manipulation and a cortisone injection, providing same day pain relief. His ongoing care has been nothing short of fantastic.
I had a shoulder operation last year. The service and care received not only by Mr Hatric but care staff too has been faultless. Everything runs like clockwork. Mr Hatrick explained the operation process and the likely recovery times and so far so good. So a big thank you.
A genuine, friendly and caring doctor. I felt safe and looked after in his hands.
Very efficient and great to deal with (personable).
My initial consultation in particular was very good, with an immediate X-ray and confirmed diagnosis of my frozen shoulder condition.
I felt any questions I had were politely and expertly answered. And I would confidently recommend Mr Hatrick as a Consultant to others.
Thank You.
Mr Hatrick was always clear and pragmatic about what was involved throughout the whole process, from preliminary assessment and surgery, to post-op and aftercare.

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

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 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!).
