I have had a problem with my knee for some years now, relating from an old football injury. I am now 55 and finding the weakening of my knee more regular. I whent to my Dr's who referred me, I asked for the spire at walderslade as close to me. I had my first consultation with Mr Ellis who then asked for an X-ray and an MRI scan, on my results consultation with Mr Ellis he had found that in actual fact i had ruptured my cruciate ligament, (possibly from my original injury)with some arthritis starting to form. Mr Ellis explained what he could do in depth, and gave me severall different options, i think he could see the look on my face when talking about surgery, as i have never had to go under the knife as yet. However he made me feel very comfortable and explained everything to me, with no pressure, to the fact that i can book my appointment for surgery and if i decide not to go through with it then i can cancel any time up to the week of the surgery. Mr Ellis makes you feel very comfortable in a not so nice situation.

Response from Mr Simon Ellis

Thank you for your kind review. I am pleased that I gave you confidence and felt comfortable. The thought of surgery can be very daunting however providing the knowledge and understanding the problem can help a great deal. Ensuring the patient feels under no pressure at all is very important. I look forward to providing whatever ongoing care is right for you. With kind regards Simon Ellis
