Simon came to my aid after I took a serious tumble while playing netball and dislocating my knee. I was in severe pain and his cool calm manner immediately put me at ease while he painlessly put my knee back into place. His aftercare was outstanding as he provided a proper knee splint, advice and forwarded my details to WH Hospital (Ashford). His care and compassion is unquestionable and last night he was an absolute star.

Thank you so much for writing this review. I am so touched. Looking after you and helping to sort out your knee was just the right thing to do although working in the field is always tricky. I do hope your treatment progresses well and I wish you a speedy recovery. With kind regards Simon Ellis

I had a total knee replacement carried out by Mr S Ellis on 24th April 20018.Mr Ellis was always very professional and considerate and listened to my concerns and worries prior to the operation. The operation went well and my concerns were in the end unfounded and I would certainly see him again if my other knee needs surgery at any time in the future. My after care was excellent.
