Reviews
My procedure was carried out at The Somerfield, Maidstone.
Mr. Ellis was reassuring from the first moment I met him. His friendly but professional demeanour made me feel relaxed from the very start.
He took the time to explain in great detail my condition and the pros and cons to the surgery which is what I needed to make a decision.
Mr Ellis' pre and post operative care was excellent.
Thank you so much for this review. I am really pleased that your experience was so positive. With kind regards Simon Ellis.
Simon Ellis instilled confidence in me right from the start. His bedside manner is excellent & he takes time to listen & answers questions in layman terms so you can understand them. He explained what was going to happen with my knee replacement & after the op came round to see me to let me know how it all went & again had time to answer any questions or concerns I had. He’s a very positive chap.
I would definitely recommend him if you’re thinking of having any knee surgery.
