Reviews
Mr Ellis was recommended to me by a previous patient from 10 years ago, who also ruptured her ACL. Mr Ellis put me at ease on our first meeting, not only is he professional and engaging, he also spoke to me as a person not a patient, he listened and explained the options, once he knew my hobbies, there was little choice, however it was a joint decision and I felt that I was in safe hands. On the day of the operation he once again explained everything. I saw him on waking in recovery and again on the ward when he explained what he had done, which was more than the Reconstruction. I am now 2.5 weeks post op and physio is going well. All staff at Spire are brilliant. I wish I had met Mr Ellis some 15 years ago. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Ellis.
Mr Ellis is not only a very good listener he is a caring person who explains everything in detail of the way forward. I have very recently had a partial knee replacement and am extremely happy with how things have gone from the beginning to where I am now. I have no hesitating in recommending Mr Ellis.
Thank you very much for the feedback I am delighted to hear you are recovering well.
I had several meetings with Mr Simon Ellis and would highly recommend him. On each visit he explained each step of my diagnosis and then treatment plan. I always found him to be polite and professional. I would not hesitate to go back to him if I have any further issues in the future a true gentleman.
I am very grateful for your feedback. All patients deserve a clear explanation and respect from us as doctors.
Simply the best.
Thank you, regards
I went to see Simon Ellis with an ongoing right knee problem. Every time I met with him he was extremely courteous, professional and very understanding. He clearly explained the diagnosis and the proposed course of action in terms that were easy to understand. He also replaced my wife's knee several years ago.
He is excellent and I would highly recommend him !
Thank you very much, I am very grateful for the feedback
