Mr. Marcus H. Ornstein
Experience you can trust
Welcome to my website. I am a retired Consultant General Surgeon and previously an Honorary Senior Lecturer. I have a special interest in breast disease, hernia repair, laparoscopic surgery and trauma. I now focus exclusively on providing high-quality medico-legal reports for solicitors, medical agencies and legal services across the UK and Ireland.
Each case I take on is approached with careful attention to detail and decades of clinical insight. Whether you’re a solicitor seeking a trusted expert witness or a legal agency requiring fast, clear reporting, I bring professionalism, clarity, and experience to every report.
Clear, thorough, and trusted opinions backed by over 40 years of experience

Personal injury assessments
Reports for road traffic incidents, workplace accidents and including soft tissue injury, hernia and abdominal trauma.
Second opinions
