My consultation with Mr. Simon Lambert was most professional, I felt my concerns were priority, with this I received an honest trustworthy review, we had an informal chat on expectations of what the agreed surgery would deliver (my injury has many complications). I left the consolation with no reservations, all my questions were addressed thoroughly. I have no hesitation providing the highest recommendation for Mr. Lambert.

Having had a torn rotator cuff operation by Mr Lambert, which repaired perfectly to the point I was back playing squash as soon as possible, I can first hand recommend him on every level to anyone.

Mr Lambert is a very nice caring doctor. He is a national expert and yet my insurer, BUPA, would not let me see him. I am disgusted by BUPA as they restrict me from seeing many of the top doctors in the UK. I tried to also see a back specialist but also were told by BUPA that this doctor was not recognised. I do not know why Mr Lambert is not recognised by BUPA, but I also tried to see other doctors at Spire Bushey and the Wellington Hospital to find that BUPA didnt want me to see them either. My husband is thinking of cancelling our policy and also reviewing his corporate policy with BUPA as they are disgusting. Mr Lambert has helped my shoulder a lot, more than I can say for my insurer.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this gentleman whom I saw after a protracted medical journey that has left me at times despairing. My condition (following injury) has had a significant impact on my life and I am terribly grateful that I have not only now got a diagnosis but a plan of action that will hopefully bring me to recovery in due course. Some important features of the consultation process are as follows:- 1. Mr Lambert has a polite, respectful but above all kindly personality. 2. He is clearly an expert in his field and conducted a thorough and targeted examination aimed at eliciting the problem. (Notably I have seen two previous orthopaedic doctors who 'did not' do anything like the same examination and therefore did not find significant results). 3. With due skill he was able to link observable deficits to a specific injury thereby proving his knowledge base. 4. It is clear that he is going to pursue further testing (not to discount but to confirm the extent of the injury), thereby putting my mind at ease that he has my very best interests at heart and is going to help me. 5. The letter sent to myself and my G.P. was prompt and informative. Information was subdivided well into sections: diagnosis and then recommendation; again proving a proactive stance. I feel extremely fortunate that I have found Mr Lambert and I wait in calm expectation of his further help in the future. Really excellent and thank you.

Profile

I am a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon with a special interest in the shoulder and elbow. I also hold an honorary academic appointment within University College London. Having worked at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH), a specialist orthopaedic hospital, where I created a research-active, educationally-acclaimed, science-based service, integrated with and recognising the extreme importance of expert rehabilitation, I have now moved to University College London Hospital. We enjoy a national reputation for clinical excellence and clinical research, which I fully expect to contribute to over the next decade. We value our national and international collaborations, and expect to develop these further with the evolution of the service. As a component of this effort my work with the AO has offered opportunities to younger colleagues while bringing the values of the AO to a wide variety of surgeons and therapists. Truly international collaboration and exchange of ideas clearly enhances and promotes the efficacy of patient-directed care and forms the basis for the motivation behind my development of the shoulder and elbow service at UCLH.
