On the 12 th April 2016, I broke my right leg skiing whereupon I had a metal plate and screws inserted in my leg by a surgeon in France. I returned to England on the 17 th April and Mr Carrothers became my consultant and oversaw my rehabilitation. I saw him on the 18 th April and from then on saw him regularly, every two weeks to begin with, then every month until I was fully mobile and able to lead an active, normal life. In April this year, I went to see Mr Carrothers and it was decided to remove the metal work. On the 14 th November I had all my metal work removed by him and after one month I was totally recovered and back to leading an active life. Throughout all of this, the care and attention to detail I received from Mr Carrothers was exemplary. He was always so encouraging about my recovery whenever I went to see him which was a great morale booster. He was very approachable and, whenever I contacted him, he always responded swiftly. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Andrew has carried out 3 surgeries on my hip following a cycle accident culminating in a pioneering anterior approach hip replacement. At each and every stage of my journey he kept me fully informed and involved me in every decision made about my treatment so I always felt in full control of what was happening to me. Surgery is never a pleasant experience but Andrew's warm personality and exceptional surgical skills ensured that I faced each stage of my treatment with confidence and without stress. He had me on my feet within an hour of a full hip replacement and back on the bike within a month. Andrew is a very special surgeon and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone needing hip surgery I can also pass on that 6 weeks post op I am now cycling 30 minutes a day and have returned to swimming training managing to knock out 2 km an hour - he is an absolute hero in my eyes!

This is the second time that I have seen Mr Carrothers, unfortunately for a separate injury. Fortunately the advice and treatment is second to none and I am now on the road to full recovery.

This genius put my pelvis back together when I'd fallen from a roof. The care I recieved in the first instance was outstanding and I had the pleasure to meet him again at my last clinic appointment when he took the time to speak to me about my recovery. This man is a gentleman who epitomises everything that is brilliant about the NHS. Thank you so much.
