About me
Mr Mark Norton is a leading Consultant Orthopaedic hip expert based in Truro, Cornwall, UK.
He specialises only in hip surgery, with particular expertise in ceramic and metal on metal hip resurfacing, total hip replacement, hip impingement surgery and revision of problematic hip replacement.
He has been a highly active sportsman his entire life and is particularly supportive of active individuals with hip problems trying to get back to higher levels of activity post surgery.
He has a unique insight into the patient perspective on hip surgery having personally had his own hip replaced with a ceramic hip resurfacing in February 2026.
Hip Resurfacing: He is one of the few surgeons in the world currently able to offer a choice of both of the innovative newly available ceramic hip resurfacing implants; the ReCerf� and H1� . He is able to offer both implants due to his 20 year experience of over 800 resurfacing operations on active adults, his participation in the investigative trials on the H1 resurfacing from 2018 onwards, as well as being a surgeon Consultant for MatOrtho who manufacture the ReCerf. He is expecting the number of resurfacings to rapidly rise with the introduction of the new ceramic hip resurfacings which are fully licensed for use in female and male patients. This significantly extends the number of patients in whom resurfacing rather than replacement technology may be appropriate.
Total hip replacement: With over 20 years' experience in routine and complex hip surgery, Mr. Norton has undertaken approximately 7000 total hip replacements and over 800 hip resurfacing operations in his consultant career. He has replaced hips in people as young as 16 to as old as 107 years of age. He offers a range of total hip replacements which are tailored to each patient's needs and anatomy rather than a one size fits all solution. He uses uncemented and cemented total hip replacements with ceramic, plastic and dual mobility bearings when appropriate and has options for the use of Minihip and custom implants for more complex anatomy.
Hip impingement: He has a vast experience of over 20 years in the diagnosis and management of hip pain without obvious osteoarthritis in young and active adults. His practice focuses on preserving the native hip joint wherever possible, while offering advanced resurfacing, or replacement solutions when preservation is no longer appropriate.
He undertakes over 300 hip replacements, 50 hip resurfacings and more than 50 hip arthroscopies each year, and would be delighted to help you with your hip problem.
