Simon Ellis performed a knee procedure on my left knee June 2022. He acted quickly in order to levitate the pain I was in. I am pleased to say that I have not looked back. I am now having an issue with my right knee & without hesitation I went back to Simon Ellis for him to advise. He is excellent in explaining the problem & going through options available. Hopefully this time I will not need surgery as I opted for an injection to settle the knee. If you are experiencing any knee issue I would recommend seeing Simon & his team at KIMS . Sarah Miller

Simon Ellis put me at ease from the first consultation and clearly explained my options. After giving me time to make a decision I opted for the total knee replacement. Simon then fully described what the operation involved, and also the potential risks, very clearly. I am currently recuperating after the operation which went very well.

Mr Ellis operated on my right knee a couple of years ago, and when similar issues occurred with my left knee I had no hesitation in deciding to consult with him again. I had the operation last week at KIMS, Mr Ellis is very professional, discusses in detail everything that's happening, gave good feedback after the operation and the care was excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for any knee related issue.
