My son was referred to Simon Lambert with a supra scapular nerve palsy. The purpose of the visit was to review if a muscle transfer should be considered. Mr Lambert was very easy to talk to, asked pertinent questions, listened carefully and did a thorough examination. At the end of which we discussed options and benefits of each and decided that a muscle transfer operation would not be the right option at this time. This consultation was extremely beneficial for us and I would have no hesitation in recommending Mr Lambert.

I was referred to Mr Lambert in August 2016 by my own consultant following four previous operations that had not resolved problems with my left shoulder. Mr Lambert was very polite, asked and indeed answered questions in straight forward terms. I found the examination to be extremely thorough and positive. The outcome of this referral is that I am awaiting an invasive operation to get to the bottom of what is causing my problems, this is great news to me as I am desperate to return to normal health.

I was referred to Mr. Lambert many years ago after breaking pretty much every bone in my body, both my arms were broken badly with some compound fractured that left me with somewhat of a "claw left arm", i hadn't touched my face for years, Mr.Lambert tried a new operation on me and he reconstructed my elbow , i wish i could post the picture of me when i reached up to my face with my left hand and i couldn't actually finish saying thank you to him (the morphine didn't help). Then when i went for my check up since having the external fixation removed i asked him about my right arm (which had a 6" plate in) and he new there was a big problem as i could over rotate it abnormally , then the discussion of a big operation with the high risk of paralysis took place and so we decided to go small first with the shoulder (secondary problem due to the arm not being aligned properly ) .That was in 0ct.2013. I might have to see him again soon as the shoulder is starting to hurt again and even though these things hurt a lot, surgeries, injections, splints,rehabilitation etc, the thing that makes a huge difference is a Surgeon like Mr. Lambert, his humble yet reassuring presence, gentle with the hard truth but honest throughout , for someone to have achieved what he has in an extremely competitive arena and not losing sight of his patients best interests as well as his good character is an achievement in itself. May God keep this good man well. Marta Gil Vaz

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.
