Mr Ellis carried out a knee arthroscopy for me recently. Pre-operative discussions were lengthy and very informative, which provided me with all the information that I needed before proceeding with the treatment. The treatment on the day of the procedure was very efficient, with all parts of the process being fully explained throughout my brief stay in hospital. The operation was successful, I have recovered quickly and my follow up appointment with Mr Ellis was carried out last week. The whole process was managed professionally with excellent communication throughout. Mr Ellis's communication was first class and he makes you feel as if you are the only patient he is focused on when he's speaking to you. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Ellis.

Mr Ellis performed my knee replacement surgery on 9th November and today, December 26th, I can say that apart from a little stiffness and a few twinges I am recovering really well. I saw Mr Ellis last week for my 6 week post operative consultation and was able to discuss my recovery experience in full with him. It was very reassuring to find that none of the symptoms I had encountered were unusual and that I was making excellent progress! I would like to thank Mr Ellis for his excellent care and the sensitive manner in which he communicates, always answering questions fully.
