With grateful thanks to Mr Hatrick I now have a completely pain free left shoulder. Due to the amount of pain and discomfort I experienced I didn't think I would be 'fixed' so successfully . It has taken many months but the excellent care and treatments I have received have made for an excellent outcome. Thank you.

This Doctor is very experienced in his field of Shoulders, with a very good bedside manner and way if explaining issues is very understanding, treats you like a private patient although I was NHS and the following through with correct physiotherapy was good.

Cameron Hatrick was recommended to me by a fellow golfer, for a consultation and subsequent complete left shoulder replacement surgery. It was obvious, from my first meeting, continuing appointments, surgery and after-care given by Mr. Hatrick, that he is dedicated to giving the utmost care and attention to his patients. His manner and professionalism is first-class - he never talked down to me and kept me informed from start to finish, as to what was going to happen - before, during and after my surgery. I have the utmost respect for his treatment of me - a big plus was also the inclusion of his physio team in my recovery - an absolute priority for my ongoing well-being. Mr Cameron's whole team, from my first meeting with him and his wonderful ancillary staff, gave me positive reassurance that I was getting the very best of treatment. I am eternally grateful that I received such wonderful care - nothing was left to chance.

Mr. Hatrick was brilliant. Very reassuring, lovely manner about him and smiles when he greets you. He obviously enjoys his work and has successfully carried out a procedure on my left shoulder which has ended 18 months of pain and discomfort. I went to Mr Hatrick because of his reputation and I am so glad I did. He and his team were first class, very caring, informative at all times and I had great care at the hospital in Hayward's Heath and at his clinic at Lewes. A wonderful surgeon of the highest standard.

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!).
