I have recently had my left knee replacement done (November 2019) following my right knee replacement done in 2018.My surgeon again was Mr Ellis at KIMS, Maidstone Kent. He worked his magic again and no pain. From start to finish Mr. Ellis explained everything in detail to me. Mr. Ellis is an exceptional Surgeon and with his Team and the care I received I could not have wished for better. I am receiving physio at the moment and everything is going well.

I was referred to mr Simon Ellis by another consultant after having pains in my knees after slipping over. On arrival we was greeted by him and he explained my options available by his recommendations. We decided it was best to have a full knee replacement, and a date was made there and then. I had the operation on the 19th November 2019. Everything was explained on the day about the procedure and my care whilst in hospital. I have had my follow up appointment and we are both happy with the results and am looking at returning to work as a hgv driver in the next 2 weeks. So after 7 weeks of the operation I’m in no pain and and my walking has improved so much. I would to thank Simon Ellis for his experience and doing the operation and his team for the aftercare I have received. Many thank Graham Hart

Thank you very much for this feedback, ensuring we make the right decision for ongoing treatment is the most important part of my role. With any knee situation there are always different options. Avoiding surgery is the best option if possible but when that isn't appropriate moving on and planning a date for surgery is essential. I am delighted that this choice for you has been so positive. With kind regards Simon Ellis
