Mr Ellis looked at my knee and from his observance recommended I needed a knee replacement and whereas I was initially worried about having a operation he explained the procedure and put me at ease straight away. He was also ready to explain any answers I had regarding carrying out the procedure and moreover the after effects of that could occur as a result.
I found Mr Simon Ellis a very pleasant man who came to see me prior and after the operation. I feel he is not only very professional man at the same time he is down to earth as the expression goes and carries out any procedure if it was his own family.

Yes I would recommend Mr Ellis 100% he listens, understands and gives very clear diagnosis that unmedical people like myself understand. He will answer any question you have clearly and tells you in detail what you must and mustn’t do and most of all a very nice friendly man that makes you feel at ease with his gentle calm manner.

Mr Simon Ellis went above and beyond in his care for me. From the initial consultation I felt totally listened to and supported by Mr Ellis. Treatment options for my surgery were fully discussed and my concerns and worries explained comprehensively. I have had many surgeries on my knees, at different hospitals locally, I can honestly say Mr. Ellis spoke to me with compassion and understanding, which I have only experienced once before.
Thank you Mr Ellis for your professionalism, kindness and for making me feel involved in all aspects of my surgery.

Mr. Ellis and his team have been very quick to respond to my questions and concerns.
It’s been a real pleasure to meet someone who is professional but approachable and obviously believes in the importance of communication between doctor and patient.

Response from Mr Simon Ellis
Thank you very much indeed for your review. You have hit the nail on the head, communication is one of the most important factors in the doctor patient relationship. It forms trust and understanding from both sides and ensures that areas of doubt are rapidly clarified. In my opinion there is nothing worse than not knowing whether something is a problem or not it can lead to anxiety and a sub-optimal outcome for the patient hence my values of care. With kind regards Simon Ellis
