Opinioni su Mr Simon Thompson

Can’t sing Mr Thompson’s praises enough. Super efficient, kind and personable and above all felt like we were in expert hands. We have followed instructions to a ‘T’, worked really hard on physio and my son is back training and now competing well within 6 months post op.

I would highly recommend Simon Thompson & am grateful to my GP for referring me to him. He has an excellent manner, explains the diagnostics & operating procedure clearly & instils confidence. He operated on a complex tear of the meniscus & the outcome has been excellent.

Mr Thompson and his staff took very good care of me and my knee from the very first moment to after surgery, suggesting the best plan of action and it resulted in the best outcome that I could imagine, back to sport activities in very little time and a completely pain free knee

Great doctor! Very friendly and caring. Always provided explanation and advice which were reassuring.

Simon quite literally saved my career in a West End show. My injury meant I was unable to work so he went above and beyond to ensure my surgery happened asap. The level of care and assurance was wonderful. I am now back on stage with a knee that is better than ever!

Dr Thompson is fantastic. Successfully treated myself and other family members. A pleasure to be treated by, great sense of humor and puts you at ease no matter the outcome.

As a retired physiotherapist I am extremely impressed with the outcome of my knee replacement performed by Mr Simon Thompson. After only a week I was walking with no aids and gained full extension and flexion after 3 weeks. Now, at the 6 week mark I am pretty much back to normal.

Fantastic results, he is tough though and straight to the point. He explains exactly what the rehab entails and expects you, quite rightly to do everything you are told.

My experience with Simon and has staff has been excellent throughout. Some elements of Mount Alvernia Hospital are looking a little tired.

Excellent treatment from my first appoinment and discover of injury, to my final check post surgery. Highly recommend Mr Thompson

Mr Thompson, my orthopaedic surgeon, was exceptional. He explained my ACL reconstruction surgery in detail. Thanks to his surgical skills, his team's support, and Katie Watt's first-rate post-operative care, my recovery has been speedy and worry-free. I recommend Mr. Thompson.

Before Mr. Thompson, my prognosis was grim, needing wheelchair assistance at airports and other venues. But with his kindness, empathy, and medical rigour, I am up and running, delaying the need for knee replacement surgery. But when this time comes, only Mr. Thompson will do.

Thanks to Simon’s expertise and talent I hardly felt any pain following my ACL surgery. With a steady rehab I was able to return doing some of the things I love within a few months. Clair, his practice manager, was incredibly helpful and empathetic throughout the process.

Mr Thompson is a top, top surgeon. I couldn't be happier with the care I received from Mr Thompson and his lovely team - nor the outcome. I feel 30 again!

Was seen very promptly by Mr Thompson and booking of scans and procedure was very efficient. Procedure was day case and aftercare excellent. No problems.

Mr Thompson is a really good Knee Doctor who was able to help return me to playing lacrosse for England as quickly as possible. I was confident in him and trusted everything he said and he reassured me that everything was going to go well. I would highly recommend him to everyone

I was referred to Mr Thompson by my physio, after injuring my right knee on the squash court. He was extremely welcoming, professional and thorough in the examination and tests he had carried out. I would highly recommend Mr Thompson to anyone who has a knee problem.

I would recommend Simon without a moments hesitation. He is the epitome of professionalism whilst also being very engaging. He also explains things very clearly in simple language. Simon’s team are also first rate and reflect his own professionalism in every interaction.

The quality of the ancillary elements is exemplary, but what matters is the diagnosis and delivery of treatment. In this Simon Thompson has been peerless! Supreme surgical skills combined with first rate post operative care made for my speedy, worry free and complete recovery.

I was very happy with my operation and overall care.

From first consultation, to advise, surgery and post-op, communication was clear and action was decisive; at no point was I left in any doubt about my care or uncertain on recovery. Excellent communicator and highly personable, to add very safe hands!! Thank you

Simon is very approachable, friendly, professional and supportive. He thoroughly explains options, outcomes and deals with expectations. I am very happy with the treatment I have received. He has enabled me to continue with my activities without major surgery.

Mr Thompson was incredible throughout. His expertise is clear and the manner in which he builds relationships with patients refreshing, friendly yet professional. From the start, I was confident I was in safe hands.

Simon is always lovely and professional, and I've received excellent care from him since he did my ACL reconstruction two years ago.

Simon has been absolutely fantastic right from the start. His finds the perfect balance between being friendly and professional. Simon always remembers my interests and hobbies despite seeing numerous patients every day. I am delighted he’s got me back to playing sport.

I had a fantastic experience with Mr Thompson for my torn meniscus. He was very professional but friendly at the same time. He clearly explained every step of the process and did a wonderful job with the surgery - my knee is so much better!

I was really impressed with the quality of care from Mr Thompson. He took the time to thoroughly understand my pain, diagnose the issues and ensure a successful outcome. Very pleasant experience and would happily recommend Simon and his team.

This practice could not be better - the admin and support staff are absolutely 'on it' and kind and considerate. Mr. Thompson himself is the same and quite simply brilliant. When I first saw him I could barely walk or stand the pain I was in - and then a year virtually pain free!

Mr Thompson has been brilliant treating my ACL rupture from start to finish. He and his team have been very clear, efficient and friendly to guide me through the process step by step, making me feel very positive and confident about the recovery.

Have had a super experience with Simon & Team. Being my first major surgery, I couldn't have expected any better. A few months post ACL reconstruction and already feeling very confident on my knee and have received the highest standard of care and communication throughout. 5 STAR

The best orthopaedic surgeon for knee replacement. Mr Thompson is an excellent surgeon and very professional in every aspect. Mr Thompson explained in detail about my total knee replacement surgery. He made me completely comfortable and answered all my questions, even if I repeated them. Mr Thompson’s advice covered all aspects, both pros and cons, of the proposed surgery and he gave me all the information I needed to make a decision on whether to proceed. I would also like to say that he has an excellent support team. Clair Mitchell, the practice manager is extremely thorough and supported me throughout the preparation of the surgery. I highly recommend Mr Thompson.

Highly recommended ! I received prompt, professional, personal and very friendly, helpful attention from Simon and ALL his team. Mr. Thompson has Set Me Free - SO many thanks to you all !!!

I couldn't recommend Simon more, he has been there every step of the way and has made my knee brand new which I didn't think was possible!

I attended Dr Thompson practice following a multi ligament injury. I was really happy with the quality of the service, level of care the confidence in having my knee fixed. We avoided an operation and the path to recovery was clear. I would definitely recommend Dr Thompson.

Fantastic service from Mr Thompson. He is an expert within his field and has an excellent bedside manner.

A very positive experience

Simon is a fantastic doctor. Him & the team are friendly, efficient & the quality of treatment has been second to none.

Mr. Thompson is a delight! He is friendly and warm and makes his patients feel welcomed. I have had very little experience of a consultant of his calibre, who has the same manner. I could not be happier to have been treated by him!

A great experience.

There's no one better! He moved heaven and earth to operate within a week of injury and two weeks later I'm back to sport and able to win sailing nationals, when it should take 6-12 weeks to recover. Had a similarly outstanding experience 2 years ago when he did the other knee!

An expert, credible, professional, caring and absolutely phenomenal human being! Stellar services provided by Mr Thompson and his Team. After 18 months I am finally pain-free. Truly humbling and life-changing experience. Thank you, forever so grateful, Mariusz Stokowacki

I would like to highly recommend Mr Thompson's team for the highly professional level of care I received during my recent operation. Mr Thompson is friendly and approachable and explains complex topics in an understandable way which puts the patient at ease. Thank you !

The thing that impressed me most was Simon’s holistic approach to my care. My wife had recently died and Simon’s kindness and understanding made my treatment so much easier. He solved my knee problem and I felt supported in my treatment and emotionally. I highly recommend him!

Mr Thompson is an excellent surgeon. Upon our first consultation, he was very reassuring & provided a lot of insight into what the procedure entailed & the recovery time. He puts a lot of care & attention into what he does & his knowledge is invaluable.

Doctor Simon Thompson is an incredible and highly qualified surgeon who took care of me and my knee from the first step into his office. I tore my ACL during my skiing trip and Dr Thompson did an ACL reconstruction surgery and I’m fully recovered a year later. Thank you Simon!

Thanks to doctor Thompson I have very minimal scars from my surgery and they are almost invisible after 3 months. I regained mobility very quickly and the entire process was both efficient and smooth.

I couldn't recommend more highly the personable and professional service received from all staff, especially Dr Simon Thompson who has ensured my understanding of the full surgical and rehab process was clearly received. It has been a pleasure being his patient.

I would highly recommend Simon without hesitation, I have found my entire experience to be as smooth as is possible when having a full knee replacement. From the early conversations around my options which were levelled at me in a balanced way, to the reassuring guidance offered prior to surgery, to the motivation given towards recovery post-operation, I have always felt very at ease and in excellent hands. 3 months on, with Simon's attention to detail, high standards and expectations around physio, I have been able to make excellent progress and exceeded the expected movement and flexibility at this point after the procedure. Simon has been a pleasure to communicate with and meet on a regular basis throughout this period. I am extremely grateful for the level of care and expertise I have been given throughout, thank you Simon you are the best! 

Best specialist surgeon I have ever had the pleasure to meet. He is a genius and his team a great support. Cannot praise Simon highly enough.

I have been hugely impressed with Simon's work in repairing my damaged ACL. My recovery time has been quicker than expected, and I have felt informed and supported throughout the pre-op and recovery process. Simon has a good manner in dealing with patients and is recommended.

I would highly recommend Simon to anyone. After seeing him back in 2022 with further knee issues, I was efficiently scanned and rightly advised to take the route of non-operative management, following an ACL reconstruction in 2014. An honest doctor who puts the patient first!

I first met with Mr Thompson in May 2022 to discuss ACL reconstruction surgeries to both knees. February 2023 (12 weeks post final op) and all surgeries are now completed including ACL revision surgery to my right knee. A complete professional and supported by an amazing team.

I am currently 6 months post ACL reconstruction surgery and can honestly say that Simon and his team have been perfect throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend.

I was so impressed with the care that I received from Dr. Thompson and his team. He was excellent at providing all of the information I needed to make decisions around proceeding with, scheduling and undergoing my knee surgery, as well as with the aftercare.

I had an operation for an ACL and meniscus tear at the Lister Hospital in May ‘22. I couldn’t be happier with the results and the skilled, professional and friendly care I received both during and post operation from Mr Thompson and his team.

In the last six months I have had two knee replacements, It is all thanks to Mr Simon Thompson and his Fantastic Team that I have been given a new lease of life. Prior to my operations I was struggling to get around . I would definitely recommend Mr Simon Thompson.

Simon Thompson is an extremely knowledgeable doctor that is both informative and easy to talk to. My surgery went well and he has been supportive throughout the whole process.

Clair and Simon make a fantastic team, no room for improvement. Kind, efficient and clear.

Meniscus damage both knees. From start (his Pa) to finish Mr Thompson explained, showed x rays, discussed, reassured was professional and above all caring. Im booking to have my right knee done again for the second time. Follow up care second to none. Definitely recommend.

Mr Thompson's care was outstanding. I had seen another consultant who had told me I needed a knee replacement. However Simon took the time to look at my issues in more detail and 3 months after surgery I am pretty much back to normal and looking forward to the cricket season!

I'm delighted with the level of care received from Mr. Thompson and his staff before, during and after surgery. My recovery has gone very smoothly and I have always been fully informed on my progress, and given guidance for how to continue the recovery going forward.

Simon has been great and has given me a stable knee after having no ACL for 10 years following previous surgical decisions. Quality of care has been fantastic

Mr Thompson and his team are extremely accommodating and quick to help me throughout my treatment. My quick recovery I attribute to the care and advice given by him. I have recommended him to friends and colleagues.

Amazing experience. Mr Thompson replaced both my knees recently and I count myself very lucky to have found such a fantastic, reassuring and professional consultant. I would recommend Mr Thompson and his team to anyone.

I was very nervous about getting surgery as I had never had anything like this, Simon and his team made me feel in incredibly safe hands, the whole process was seamless and my recovery has been amazing!

I would certainly recommend Mr Thompson as a surgeon. He made me feel very comfortable and explained the procedure to me step by step. I was walking unaided in 2 months after an acl and meniscus repair due to the great job mr Thompson done on my knee !

My ACL and meniscus repair went exactly as planned and I am now completely pain-free and stronger than before. His team in particular, his practice manager, are amazing - they are proactive in ensuring I get the best out of my care and respond to queries very quickly. Thanks!

Outstanding care. Had surgery in January for ACL and meniscus repair. Ever since the surgery he has been available for me whenever I had any concerns. Been having multiple follow ups with himself and all I have to say about Mr Thomson is positive feedback!

Superb knee replacement 3 years ago followed up with great aftercare from Mr. Thompson. Now an issue with my other knee and very clear explanation of the issues and the process to be followed. Without doubt, Mr Thompson has provided the highest quality of treatment and advice.

Unfortunately, I started this year with two injuries. Simon was able to diagnose me extremely quickly, book me in for two operations, and have two extremely fast healing surgeries. Would definitely recommend him, he saved me this year!

Couldn't recommend Simon more - I had been misdiagnosed for 2/3 years by multiple private consultants as having ITB issues, when in fact I had a torn ACL! Simon spotted this immediately and everything has been faultless since my first consultation to post surgery care

At least 2 weeks prior to the operation I would suggest a call or mail advising that the patient asks family & friends for crutches and to purchase compression socks and waterproof knee protector so they have this in place in time before they go to the hospital for the operation

I have been very impressed with Dr Thompson, and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking specialist knee care. From the first meeting, to the more recent checks and including the surgery itself everything has been smooth and gone without hiccup. Many thanks indeed!

I had a very positive journey with Simon Thompson during my initial consultations, knee surgery and aftercare. Simon was a very strong communicator and thorough during all consultations putting me at ease ahead of my surgery date. Post operation, Simon went out of his way to connect me with his recommended physio practice to ensure I received the highest quality rehab to aid my recovery.

Simon really took his time to get to know me and explain all of the options available to me. It was such a relief to finally find him a get a correct diagnosis and treatment after 8 years of suffering. 6 months later I feel much better than before!:). He has a great team too.

Simon has been excellent throughout Charlie's fairly long period of treatment - Charlie was 9 when he fell skiing and is now 12. He spoke to Charlie himself, carefully explaining the issues with his left knee (ruptured ACL) and how the reconstruction will work. Overall, brilliant

Mr Thompson's care is of an extraordinary calibre. A considerate and thorough surgeon, my ACL reconstruction has been without hiccup. 3 months down the line and with conscientious rehab, I know this is the result of an excellent operation. Thank you!

I saw Mr Thompson after another surgeon had made a mess of repairing a displaced comminuted fracture of my right femur. My prognosis was not good. Mr Thompson removed the original metalwork and rebuilt my femur. Thanks to his skill I am now back doing long mountain walks.

Mr Thompson was very thorough and clearly explained the injury I had sustained and recommended a treatment program. I’m really happy with the outcome as my injury has been successfully treated.I would highly recommend him.

Excellent treatment and bedside manner from Mr Thompson who has treated my fractured leg superbly and got me back nightclubbing!

I had ACL reconstruction surgery by Simon a year ago, and he's been amazing every step of the way, from diagnosis to the operation to the rehab and recovery. Not only is he an excellent surgeon, but he is also very friendly and approachable. I would definitely recommend Simon.

When I first met Simon i knew right away I’d chosen the right surgeon,he went through step by step what was wrong with me and what to do what I was happy with,in my case tkr . Im very happy with the outcome,I can’t speak highly enough of Simon and would recommend him, ( TOP DOCTO

I have been a patient of Simon Thompson's since 2018 and cannot speak more highly of his professionalism, care and advice in helping manage my deteriorating knees including a recent arthroscopy and earlier Durolane injections. He has my complete confidence.

Simon was excellent, he worked with me, my physio and trainer to get me back playing hockey following a very serious hamstring injury. Thanks to his guidance and support I got selected again for my country and I am back playing hockey at international level..

Absolutely superb from start to finish. The initial assessment was clear and a plan agreed . Regular follow ups prior to my operation . The procedure was completed very professionally and I was back on my feet very quickly . The excellent service has continued - a great team .

I have had 2 operations under Mr Thompson and always found him to be very professional whilst making you feel very relaxed

I underwent surgery on the left knee and couldn't be happier with the outcome. Simon was professional, friendly and reassuring throughout - from the initial consultation, operation and follow up appointments. Highly recommended.

I was referred to Simon via my physiotherapist. I received excellent care from Simon and his team throughout the consultation stage, surgery and on to post-op care. I would recommend, certainly for ACL injuries.

Mr Thompson is second to none, his care, attention to detail and incredible precision has allowed me to get back on track and given me a new lease of life, and knees that will hopefully allow me to run and compete in sport once again.

Simon performed my ACL reconstruction in March 2021. I'd had a difficult time between suffering my injury and seeing him but he's been reassuring, clear and encouraging from the first appointment right through until my recent 12 month check-up, and I'm delighted with the outcome!

As this was the second time having ACL surgery I was very nervous but Simon has helped me through every step, its given me the confidence to push forward in my recovery and in general I am now the healthiest I've been in years. I wish I'd seen him the first time around!

Simon has been absolutely fantastic. From the outset he has been encouraging, reassuring, explaining the problems clearly and giving me options of treatment. I felt very confident in his care and knew that his door was always open, should I have needed it.

Simon is an excellent doctor who has operated and fixed the ACL on both of my knees (yes, I am that rare case). Very clear explanations, a smooth process, regular check-ins post-op to ensure recovery, maintained positivity throughout the process. Great experience!

Outstanding medical experience from start to finish. Prompt appointment, immediate scans/follow-ups, clear communication, excellent surgery outcome, attentive aftercare and transition into physiotherapy/rehab. Simon is the modern day gold standard to which others should aspire.

Simon is an exceptional surgeon and successfully performed a very complicated operation on my knee after an accident. He is kind and considerate, listened carefully to questions giving clear answers to my queries. He has taken great care of me and I would highly recommend him.

My son suffered a torn meniscus injury at the end of the 20/21 football season. After seeing several physiotherapists we were referred to Simon for a 2nd opinion. From the first meeting through to patient release Simon was amazing. We can't recommend him highly enough!!!

Simon is clearly an expert, I couldn't imagine being with a different doctor. I've felt extremely reassured from day 1, during what has been quite a worrying time for me with my ACL injury.

My treatment over the past few months with Simon Thompson has been excellent, absolutely first class and the outcome has been beyond my expectations. Going from when I first walked uncomfortably into his surgery waiting room to now, where I am pain free and exercising daily!

Mr Thompson is treating me for a two-stage ACL reconstruction due to a failed repair another surgeon undertook. Mr Thompson's professionalism and demonstrable expertise have made me feel relaxed and assured that I made the best possible choice picking Mr Thompson as my surgeon.
