Mr. Ellis understood everything I said from a layman's perspective. He was kind, caring, charming, courteous gentleman and gave me great reassurance knowing that he was so competent. I have no fears about the operation. I don't believe my appointment could have been bettered in anyway. Thank you, Mr. Ellis.

I can't think of any way the experience of my knee replacement could have been bettered, From the initial consultation to the procedure itself . Everything was easy to understand and explained in a reassuring manner, from Simon to the porters made me feel important the care across the board was exceptional the nursing staff made it clear nothing was to much or trivial to my care, the physio's were kind and caring not the image I expected , to the porter that wheeled me out on my discharge. Oh and the food was restaurant standard or better.

I am writing this on behalf of my mother. She was very impressed on the way she was treated. Att the age of 92 some doctors seem to talk down to you,not the case with Mr Ellis. He explained in detail what could and what couldn't be done for her. She was very nervous about the consultation, but soon relaxed with Mr Ellis. All in all a very pleasant and helpful consultation.

Since my meniscus repair and then TKR surgery in March, through all the pain, it’s been a total pleasure to have met and been treated my Mr Simon Ellis. His professional expertise is second to none and his friendly, helpful manner and unique way of explaining the whole procedure makes him stand out. Even though the current problems we all have, he examined me in a face to face appointment to check concerns I had and took the trouble to reassure and put my mind to rest. Nobody enjoys the need for surgery but you’re in very safe hands with Simon Ellis. A pleasure and an honour to have met you. Endless thanks. Kind regards Steve

Mr Ellis is a very professional person explain everything really well. Had problem with right knee which he was seeing me for. I explained to him I had problem with other leg also now. He explained he was a knee surgeon so it was out side of his area. But new a man that may know. He got a colleague from another room (which he need not do.) it was the surgeon that done my bypass. And got it sorted.. So as far as I'm concerned he will go that extra mile to help his patients. Thanks Mr Elliss Andy. .
