What my patients say
Real experiences from patients who have had hip or knee replacement surgery
The very best experience provided by Mr Symes over the course of my hip replacement surgery. Lovely friendly demeanour, professional and courteous in answering the most trivial of questions & most importantly a successful operation with a very tidy incision.
Hip Replacement Patient
From my initial consultation to my aftercare, everything was a first class service. Tom Symes is approachable, funny, professional and caring. My operation was a great success and it was all down to Mr Symes and his team.
Knee replacement patient
Excellent patient care from start to finish. My hip replacement has given me the chance to really enjoy my retirement to the full and I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Symes as the go to surgeon for this procedure, and the Spire Hull as the place to have this undertaken.
