I was referred to Mr Ellis with ongoing knee problems, following a previous arthroscopy at a different location, under a different doctor. Following on from further investigations, Mr Ellis recommended a total knee replacement. He performed the surgery at KIMS in April 2017. At the time of surgery another problem became evident and Mr Ellis performed a second procedure at the same time. This has led to a long and complicated rehabilitation. Whenever a need arose Mr Ellis was always there, often seeing me when I was sent to outpatients on an unscheduled appointment. I have always felt very cared for by Mr Ellis, not only has he been supportive through all the traumas of the last year, but he has encouraged me every step of the way, listened to my concerns, answered my questions openly and honestly. Now a year on, my knee is relatively pain free, and I continue to regain movement. I can't thank Mr Ellis enough for everything he has done for me through all the ups and downs of the last twelve months. I would recommend anyone to put themselves in the care of Mr Ellis.

Response from Mr Simon Ellis

Thank you very much for taking the time to write your review and for sharing your experiences with others. As you are aware surgery is not always straightforward despite the best pre-operative planning however being aware of potential difficulties during surgery and having a plan to deal with the unexpected is very important as you discovered. I am delighted we are now through the other side with a good outcome and wish you all the best for the future. With kind regards Simon Ellis
