Mr Broadbent believes that this is a crucial part of being a holistic surgeon, as it provides important feedback, allows change, and development.

Mr. Mark Broadbent is a Consultant Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon with a specialist focus on Hand and Upper Limb Surgery. He is based in Glasgow, working within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde at Inverclyde Royal Hospital and The Royal Alexandra Hospital.

In 2007, he successfully passed the Intercollegiate Trauma and Orthopaedic Exam, earning a Fellowship of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.

To further refine his expertise in hand surgery, Mr. Broadbent undertook two prestigious Advanced Hand Training Fellowships through the Interface Group in Hand Surgery. From July 2008 to January 2009, he trained in Oxford under renowned hand surgeons Peter Burge, Henk Giele, Ian McNab, Paul Critchley, and Chris Little. He then continued his advanced training at Wrightington Hospital, a world-renowned centre for hand surgery, where he worked alongside leading surgeons Professor John Stanley, Ian Trail, Mike Hayton, and Professor Raj Murali.

I returned to Ross Hall Hospital and to Mr. Broadbent after a few years since my initial procedure for a trigger finger. I had been suffering and was on an NHS waiting list for almost a year, having been advised that another injection was not feasible as it could result in rupture, although injections can sometimes still provide relief while surgery offers the longer-term solution. Mr Broadbent once again took the time to explain the options, including the pros and cons of each approach, and allowed me to make informed choices about the pathway for my care. What I particularly value about him has been his consistent bedside manner, as well as his responsiveness to my queries out of hours, even after several years had passed since our initial encounter. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr Broadbent and Ross Hall Hospital for care. In a healthcare environment where patients can sometimes feel overlooked, I left feeling listened to, reassured, and with the strong sense that care genuinely came first.

A great initial chat that answered some questions that I’ve had for many years. Encouraging to know that the issues should be able to be identified.

I was scheduled for a fasciectomy procedure which I was nervous about. The procedure was very professional by Mark and the anaesthetist who both made me feel at ease. The surgery was painless. I would visit Mark in future if my Dupytrens returns.
