About

Mr Michael Walton is an accomplished Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon based in Manchester, UK. He was awarded his primary medical degree from Nottingham Medical School in 2000, before going on to complete his higher surgical training with distinction on the prestigious Bristol rotation.

He was awarded a Masters with Merit from the University of Bath in 2010 for his work in Sports and Exercise Medicine. Afterwards, he travelled to Perth for subspecialty training where he had the opportunity to learn from some of the world's most experienced healthcare specialists at the University of Western Australia. Here he was closely involved with managing and treating top athletes as well as members of the military, which gave him the chance to hone his surgical skills.

Explanation

Mr Walton is clear in his communication. He accessed my NHS MRI scan and queried the diagnosis. He undertook his own examination then referred me to a colleague at Wilmslow for additional ultrasound scans and concluded that a non-surgical intervention was more appropriate (whereas NHS had recommended surgery). Subsequent to the treatment received from Mr Walton, I have had very little pain and significant improvement in the range of movement in my shoulder.
