I had my 12 month follow up with Tim today after getting a reminder last week which also included the referral for x-ray, everyone was on time which is important as I am back working full time. He was happy to see me and like me, completely happy with the result of my hip replacement surgery. After being in excruciating pain for far too long I am now pain free and fully mobile. Tim did his part with the surgery, I did mine with physio and exercise with the result being I'm back to my normal very active life style. He has a great bedside manner, as well as answers to all of my questions, I have no hesitation in recommending Tim if you are contemplating surgery of this type. At 67, I can now look forward to a long and active pain free life in the future. Sincere thanks to Tim and his very professional team.

I was lucky enough to find Dr Timothy Small on the internet when searching for an orthopaedic surgeon, he stood out to me because he looked young but experienced and up with up to date knowledge of orthopaedic surgery, he is also a fellow Kiwi which made me feel like i was in great hands. His practice manager Cynthia is amazing, nothing was ever too much for her, always willing to help you. These two together make an incredible team which made or an incredible experience. I am quite young to have a hip replacement (48) and i was nervous, but Dr Small made me feel very comfortable and i actually recovered pretty quickly, back at work after 5 weeks and no pain, now im actually excited to get my left one done in a months time. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Small, he is caring, confident, competent and a highly skilled surgeon.

I have worked with doctors most of my professional life. I know a good doctor. Dr Tim Small has given me two knee replacements three years apart. I have made an exceptionally good recovery for both. Tim is an excellent surgeon. He listens and he communicates well. I can highly recommend him. His PA Cynthia is the icing on the cake and nothing is too much trouble for her. They are a wonderful team.

Tim conducted bilateral knee replacement surgery for me in October 2020. His approach and professional manner was always reassuring, and his capacity to make me feel cared for and informed was/remains exemplary.
Tim always provided me with personalised encouragement, reassuring me pre and post operation, and during all consultations. I cannot thank him enough for the positive physical change he has brought to my life.
