18 months ago I had my ex-marines head on and loudly berated my 11-year old son Tommy for walking like a complete .... waddling duck. Following a number of Physiotherapist visits Tommy had an initial exam at the Royal Bolton Hospital. Mr Marley, after checking X-rays, told me that he immediately recognised 'SUFE hip' which is common in teenagers. It required immediate surgery. I asked what the waiting-time was - he replied 'Can you be here tomorrow morning, early?' Clearly it was urgent. Mr Marley subsequently operated on Tommy the following day, and inserted two pins in Tommy's hips. I cannot praise the surgical, nursing, and ancillary staff enough for the care and consideration extended to my wife and me. He's always cheerful (how does he do that?), always caring and ready to explain in as great a detail as needed what's happening, and how it will be fixed. This guy is seriously an example: He peer-reviews every decision, he spends time with us. Trust me - he's very very good, and I have no hesitation in trusting my son to him. I'm out of words on this, but - Tommy is running around now like the growing young man that he is. His Boxing and Rugby coaches are seriously impressed with the change in Tommy. Me - I'm just ashamed of myself. But, the saving grace for me is having had the privilege of Mr Marley's care. He sets a high example that as a father I try to follow, and will continue to emulate his level of care.
