I did an awful lot of research before I decided to have private consultation with Mr Turton at the Nuffield Hospital in Leeds. I can honestly say it is the best decision I have ever made. From the moment we met, Mr Turton was just so lovely, putting me at ease straight away and explaining everything about the procedure I was contemplating. I already knew he was an amazing, very knowledgeable, very experienced and well respected surgeon from my research. A couple of my old work colleagues had also spoken of their experiences a few years previously. It was different circumstances as unfortunately they were cancer sufferers at that time but are now I am happy to say cancer survivors. I decided to go ahead with a bi-lateral breast reduction with deep plane mastopexy (uplift) after my breasts went through a drastic change during and after menopause. Mr Turton assured me he could make things much better for me not only aesthetically but also the reduction would reduce the heaviness, the strain on my neck and shoulders and that clothing would fit much better once my breasts were back in the right proportion to the rest of my body plus uplifted which also makes a big difference. I am now 4 month post surgery. My scars are healing extremely well (despite my thin skin due to prolonged use steroid inhalers which is unfortunately necessary for me) I am using the Scar Gel as recommended twice per day. I still have a way to go before all my stitches fully dissolve in about 9 month post the date of my operation. But I can honestly say I feel like a different person. My confidence has grown massively and I am no longer embarrassed to wear a T Shirt or swimwear. I no longer hide under baggy sweatshirts. As I said previously not only is Mr Turton an amazing surgeon, and an expert in his field, he is also an amazing person. The care and after care I received throughout my surgery and follow up appointments from Mr Turton and his breast care nurse Gerry was second to none. They really do care a lot about their patients. Thank you so much you have changed my life completely and I am absolutely thrilled with my results and to have my confidence back. Thank you is not a big enough word to express my gratitude. I cannot tell you how highly I would recommend Mr Turton but it’s definitely over a million percent. Thank you so so much!!
