Mr Ellis could not be more helpful if he tried, his experience and outstanding work in this particular field absolutely fill me with confidence that he is the right person for this procedure and my care.
He is attentive down to minutest detail, and came up with a solution to get me back to full health and mobility.
I look forward to the procedure and making a full recovery from this.

Thank you Mr Ellis for greeting my husband & I with such a lovely smile and reassuring hand shake that helped me to feel much more at ease straight away. As I had been feeling very nervous.
Thank you for checking the movement in my knee, after my MRI confirmed a torn anterior Cruciate ligament due to a skiing accident.
Thank you for discussing, in such a clear & friendly way, the options I had regarding my knee. Thank you for your advice that helped us to agree that surgery was the best way forward for me to get back to fullness of life, movement & mobility in my knee again.
I am so reassured by you Mr Ellis that I am only happy that it's you who operates on my knee as you certainly seem an expert in your field.
Many thanks again, Tarah Nottage.

I am a typical man who ignored my knee for too long, my GP recommended Mr Ellis so that is who i decided to contact.
Mr Ellis connected on a level which didn't feel doctor patient, listened to what I had to say then gave a diagnosis after an MRI, he was to the point and factual both of which I appreciate.
The operation was a day case, I was expecting pain and discomfort afterwards but I did not expect to be walking fine within 24hrs, my knee feels perfect, I cannot believe the instant improvement. I have my first born on route which pushed me to get this sorted and I am 100% happy that I did.
I will without a doubt recommend Mr Ellis to anyone who asks.
Thank you, Mr Ellis from a very happy patient.

Thank you so much for your feedback. In my practice it is so important to strike the right doctor-patient relationship of trust and understanding. For the patient coming for treatment is a daunting life event so we as doctors need to make the experience as positive as possible. I am delighted you have had such a good result. With kind regards Simon Ellis
