- I was very pleased with the advise , given and the outcome of the operation for total hip replacement. My recovery was extremely fast , and the professionalism of Simon and he’s team, was of the highest standard. Highly recommended.
- I have had no problems since my hip, operation and after-care was very complete. After I had all the information I needed to help my hip to heal and to repair the muscle damage. I recommend the surgeon.
- To be pain free for the first time in many years is amazing , the whole way i was treated from the first appointment to discharge can not be faulted in any way, and as the Horder centre was recommended to me i would have no hesitation in doing the same
- I had an excellent experience with my Hip Replacement Operation. I'm now completely pain free & able to do everything I could before my joint problems. I'm joining colleagues on a trek to Everest Base Camp in a few days, just over a year after my op.
- My hip replacement surgery carried out at the Horder Centre by Mr Hoskinson and his team was very successful and 6 weeks later I have good mobility in my new hip ,no pain and living normally while understanding full recovery will be a while yet. Thank You
- Excellent service from hospital and Mr Hoskinson. My hip has recovered very well indeed
