Elbow (Outerbridge and Kashiwagi) Procedure I would highly recommend Mr Simon Owen-Johnstone for this particular procedure as I know he went ‘the extra mile’ with ensuring that the best outcome was achieved. He listened to my concerns and holistically took on board my other conditions along with explaining in detail what will be done surgically and also what to expect afterwards. I feel lucky that after six weeks I am in a place where I can now have very good elbow range and movement to my face/mouth. A highly skilled and knowledgeable surgeon with a lovely and easy-going manner.

Orthopaedic SurgerySimon is a fantastic and skilled upper limb surgeon. We have shared many patients together and he is always very approachable, knowledgeable and collaborative. I enjoy discussing patients with him and fully trust him to deliver an excellent opinion to a patient. He will only offer surgery if it is the absolute best option for a patient and has experience and interest in sporting and younger athletic patients.
