I feel Dr Ellis listened to the issues and concerns raised with my knee and has clearly put in place a plan to help relieve the pain and ongoing treatment. I found him very knowledgeable and caring about me as an individual and gave me confidence that this will be dealt with.

Through out the whole experience of having a knee replacement I found Mr Ellis thoroughly professional, caring and sympathetic. The operation was a total success and my recovery was ahead of the expected time. I would recommend Mr Ellis to all

An excellent physician, couldn’t do my op for other medical issues beyond his control but helped in all aspects relating to my operation.

Response from Mr Simon Ellis

Thank you for this feedback, it is always disappointing when other issues prevent surgery going forward however safety for the patient is the most important feature when moving forward with elective knee surgery. I wish you all the best for the future. Simon Ellis

Mr Simon Ellis was most understanding and immediately put me at ease with his warm and professional approach.He immediately recognised my painful knee was of great concern and talked me through what some of the problems could be and suggested some tests. The attention to his care was such a relief and to be pain free and to be able to get on with normal activities will be something to look forward to.
