i injured my knee in 2019 i started going through the NHS system with scans and consultants advice then COVID arrived as most are aware NHS stopped for any outpatient appointments i had a telephone consultation from Medway Hospital. I Waited until the later part of 2020 and went to see a physio who advised my best route would be private and recommended Simon. My appointment came and we discussed problem and before you could sneeze i was up on the bed been pulled around to see what i could do knee wise. Simon suggested a drain off of fluid and injection. Well what a difference i could walk freely again. So big thumbs up to Simon from me. Looking forward to my follow up next weeek

I was dubious about doing a zoom call about my knee; But then i realised i was very wrong. Simon was absolutely fantastic! it was one of the best doctors appointments i've ever had. His knowledge was second to none and he was so reassuring. I now feel so much better knowing Simon is dealing with my knee and i trust he will get me sorted. Thank you Simon. Jason

My recent knee replacement surgery has been a great relief to me and very successful thanks to the care and dedication of Mr Simon Ellis. From my first consultation he listened and explained the problems I was experiencing and the surgery recommended. His communication and follow up has been excellent. All I can say is 'thank you'.

I found Mr Ellis to be a really calming consultant. Asked questions and really listened to me before explaining in easy to understand language what needed to happen and why. Felt I could fully trust Mr Ellis for my procedure.
