Mr. Parratt is a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon based at Oaks Hospital and East Suffolk North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT). His practice focuses on the treatment of conditions affecting the hip and knee.

Mr. Parratt was selected to train on the internationally renowned Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH) rotation, spending a lot of time at the RNOH, where he gained experience in specialist forms of orthopaedic surgery.

Away from work, he enjoys walking and generally getting into the “great outdoors”. Having played rugby to international standard as a youth, he continues to follow the game, although only watching!
Personal Statement: “I really enjoy interacting with my patients and I try to give patients access to the best possible choices for their care, whether that be hip or knee surgery. I believe that patient care should be individualised and finely tuned.”
