I had a consultation with Mr Ellis following a hit and run accident where I sustained a broken ankle. Mr Ellis was very reassuring and explained everything carefully. I did not feel rushed and felt he listened very carefully to my difficulties. His opinion differed to the other consultant I had seen who had recommended a different course of treatment. However, I agreed with Mr Ellis' recommendation and felt he reached his conclusion by completing a thorough examination and by listening to the patient. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Mr Ellis saw me in a virtual consultation. This was my first engagement with him as my knee care in recent years has been with Prof Shetty. Mr Ellis quickly understood the issues with my knees and the solution for the remedial treatment required was established. We agreed the future care of my knees could continue under Prof Shetty for the purpose of continuity, I can say that Mr Ellis was very helpful indeed.

Mr Ellis has dealt with my knees for approximately 10 years, I have found him to be extremely helpful and constructive and I totally trust his recommendations. He listens to what you have to say and I would recommend him as a surgeon.
