Mr Smith was amazing from start to finish. I booked in for breast enlargement surgery after years of hating how I looked, he listened to all my worries answering all questions with no judgement and advised me what would be best for me. Surgery day was perfect, every step of the procedure was explained fully to me beforehand and my nerves were put at ease straight away. I am now 4 weeks post op and have had my final check up. I am so happy with my breasts, they look and feel so natural. Can not rate Mr Smith and his team highly enough, would recommend to everyone. Thank you 🫶🏼

Parathyroidectomy four weeks ago, the incision is healing neatly and hardly visible despite my age of 70. Excruciating exacerbated symptoms diminished in particular the joint pain, imbalance, anxiety and sense of turmoil. With his wealth of experience I am grateful that Mr Simon Smith took the time to listen, and agreed surgery after giving me time to consider the limitations and risks of surgery. The successful outcome enables me to continue to manage well, my existing conditions safely and with dignity.

Simon has not only improved my health but he’s changed my life. My large breasts were becoming a daily burden causing me various issues. I have had a breast reduction and uplift, I’m so pleased with the result. I never imagined I could achieve such a “nice finish” and feel confident. Simon knew exactly what I needed as soon as he saw me and kept me informed and comfortable throughout the whole process. Would highly recommend!

I met Simon for a breast Augmentation. From start to finish, the whole process was quick, smooth, and professional. Simon made me feel comfortable and confident every step of the way, and the results are even better than I imagined!! I Highly recommend to anyone considering the procedure! Thankyou for giving me the confidence I've always wanted Simon.

Simon performed a parathyroidectomy on me following a high blood calcium diagnosis. He was totally clear about the procedure from the start and answered all my questions. Very freindly and even moved the op forward for me to allow me to go away on holiday. In and out of hospital in under 6 hours , the operation was a total success and done with the minimum of fuss. Could not recommend more highly.

Simon is the best surgeon EVER. His passion for his job shines through his work. I was very nervous about the procedure but him and his team - Hywell Jones and Sheena gave me amazing support and the best care before, during and after my surgery. He has given me the biggest confidence boost and I could genuinely cry with happiness with my results. Thank you so much xx

I attended the ‘One stop breast clinic’ at Springfield Hospital. I’m very grateful to Mr Smith for his calm and approachable manner particularly as I was somewhat nervous. I’m thankful he was able to put my mind at ease.

Having a breast reduction is something I had wanted for most of my adult life but it got to the point where my heavy drooping breasts were causing me back and shoulder pain. I did a lot of research, and saw something in Simon Smith and all of his reviews were very positive. I traveled from clacton to Springfield for my consultation, and from that meeting I knew I was going ahead with my breast reduction. On the day of surgery I was not nervous at all, as Simon was such an expert in his speciality and explained everything so well, I felt at ease. Having this surgery has changed my life, and I wish I had found Simon years ago. He is by far the most excellent surgeon and I cannot fault the whole process from start to finish. If you are thinking of having breast surgery, do not hesitate to choose Simon. 😄

I had a breast augmentation with Simon Smith in February, he listened to exactly what I wanted, made me feel comfortable from the second I walked through the door and explained everything to me throughly. I honestly couldn’t be happier with my results, Simon has made me feel like a woman again! Couldn’t recommend him enough, brilliant surgeon, brilliant guy!

From start to finish, I couldn’t be happier with my experience trusting Simon Smith with such a major surgery. As a 20-year-old with a smaller frame but very large, sagging breasts, this was something I had been thinking about for a long time. From the moment I walked into my consultation, Simon made me feel completely at ease. What really stood out was his honesty—he didn’t just agree with what I initially wanted, but instead gave his professional opinion, which I found very reassuring. I originally wanted a lift, reduction, and implants, but Simon believed he could achieve the result I wanted with just a lift and reduction. He encouraged me to go away and think about it, which I really respected. In the end, I chose to go ahead with implants as well, as I had always wanted that fuller look at the top. Simon fully supported my decision and made me feel positive and excited about the outcome. When my surgery day came, I was overwhelmed—in the best way possible. As soon as I woke up and saw the results, I cried because they were exactly what I had hoped for. The size is perfect for my body, and I absolutely love them. The aftercare advice I received was clear and really worked in my favour. Recovery went smoothly, and although I had a few worries along the way (as you naturally do), Simon always made time to see me and reassure me, which meant so much. I truly cannot thank Simon enough—he has made me incredibly happy and more confident than ever. I would recommend him without hesitation.
