Mine was a more complex case as I suffer from MS and at the last minute it was discovered I had a compressed fracture of the tibia. This was dealt with very professionally by Mr Ellis. I found him to be a very good listener who gave me great confidence. He was described to me by staff as "being of the old school and a gentleman"

I cannot recommend Mr Ellis enough, highly professional and very friendly, he ensured I was looked after from start to finish and has helped me get the operation booked in a lot sooner to ensure I can still go on a once in a life time holiday. An absolute gentleman.

Mr Ellis is a very professional, caring surgeon who always trys to put you at ease. Everything is explained in detail during the whole process. Should I need any other knee surgery in the future, I would always feel comfortable to be in his care.

Mr Ellis is such a gentleman, he is an excellent listener,I am a profoundly deaf patient.
Before my total knee replacement he explained to me his intentions around the procedure.
he was very clear I understood exactly what to expect during the operation, and post-op care including the importance of my recovery by way of flexion and physiotherapy
The post op appointment again a very caring listener very kind and very generous with his time.
I would say that I am more than happy to have met Mr Ellis and to have been treated by him as an NHS exactly as I would have been as a pirate patient at the Alexandra Hospital.

I recently had a total knee replacement under Mr Ellis care. His approach from the outset inspired immediate confidence in me having looked upon the whole process with extreme trepidation beforehand. He showed genuine concern for my uneasiness and did his very best to dismiss my worries. After what I believe was a successful operation both he and his team made regular checks on me. I cannot fault any aspect of the process or the fantastic team that carried it out. And I am eternally grateful.
