Although I have not, as yet, had the outcome I was hoping for I am happy with the information I was given and will follow Mr. Ellis’s instructions for another opinion. I found Mr.Ellis to have compassion and welcomed his willingness to listen to my concerns.

I saw mr Ellis in July for a 2nd opinion. Straight away he gained my trust with his knowledge and is a very professional doctor. I am very happy with the treatment and care I received from Mr Ellis. I will recommended him to anyone who requires his care.

I was hoping to defer what was going to be an inevitable knee replacement until a number of years in the future. However, Mr Ellis reassured me that my decision to now have the operation, based on his very detailed analysis of symptoms and available options was a great help. At all times Mr Ellis was fully understanding of my concerns, and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who has similar issues.

My 79 year old aunt went to see Mr Ellis regarding a knee replacement and was operated on by him last Thursday. She was very nervous about the procedure and Mr Ellis has been very kind and understanding. On Saturday she had to go back to the operating theatre to have the knee drained, again he was very kind and understanding. After both procedures, Mr Ellis contacted us directly to let us know what was going on. He is a very kind and considerate doctor and myself and my family have no hesitation in recommending him.
