- My overall treatment, from the surgery itself to the aftercare in the hospital was excellent. Mr Costin Brown was very informative and professional. I have had both knees partially replaced this year by him and both times everything has went well. I would highly recommend him to anyone wishing to have similar surgery on their knee(s).
- Mr Costin-Brown is not only very professional but also approachable, friendly and caring. He left me feeling at ease and well informed about my operation and care before and afterwards. The treatment I received before, during and afterward was excellent. My recovery and future with my new hip is looking and feeling wonderful and it’s all thanks to Mr Costin-Brown and the treatment I received.
- I would highly recommend Mr Costin-Brown, whilst highly skilled in his field like so many others, he leaves the patient feeling that he is the only and most important patient. His caring approach is invaluable and very much appreciated. I believe that these factors place him well above and beyond other specialists.
- I have just been fitted with a new hip by Mr Ashley Costin Brown and I am very happy with the way I was treated and I am very pleased with my recovery. Mr Costin Brown is a very skilled surgeon and also a very nice person
- I would definitely give full marks to this surgeon. He was very professional, and explained everything in detail that I could understand. His bedside manner is exceptional and calm and made me feel at ease! I would certainly recommend him to my family and friends.
- I was impressed with the whole experience. Everything was explained fully. All staff were friendly, helpful and introduced themselves. I would definitely be happy to choose the same Surgeon and Anaesthetist should I need to have my other knee operated on. I would also be happy to have the procedure at the same hospital. Overall a very impressive team and I am overjoyed with the outcome I have regained my mobility.
