Mr M, Hampshire

I cannot thank Mr Chapman-Sheath enough for the care and expertise he gave when treating my son who was injured playing rugby. I’m not exaggerating when I say his life has been transformed and we are all extremely grateful.


Adolescent knee management and treatment

Philip has established a unique specialist private centre for the management and treatment of adolescent knee injuries and the consequences of any developmental conditions.

Based at the foremost private hospital on the South Coast, the centre is fortunate in having dedicated nursing staff and a state-of-the-art ward with specialist allied health practitioners and dedicated theatre lists using only the best highly trained consultant anaesthetists.

Located in Southampton, the centre provides the highest standard of care and attention to detail for all adolescent patients – helping both them and their families to understand their condition, ask questions and feel completely at ease.


Philip and his team always go the extra mile and strive to deliver extremely high standards of care.
