My GP referred me to Simon Ellis after 6 years of pain, now having to use a walking stick and two NHS consultants refusing to operate for a soft tissue injury. In an very friendly but professional manner he explained in detail why 6 years of physio hadn't worked. He asked me questions that had not been asked before, he looked at my MRI in the evening, called me that night to confirm what we had discussed and because I had traveled a long way I had some x-rays done and seen again that day to discussed these. All the staff from the receptionist to the nurses, Dr Palkovic the anaesthetist were outstanding, I couldn't have asked for better care, Simon Ellis even called my husband when I was in the recover room. I am still recovering from the surgery but the early signs are looking good - thank you so much Simon Ellis.
Thank you very much for your feedback. I appreciate that diagnosing the problem can be difficult however in my experience the importance of listening to the patient is paramount. With kind regards Simon Ellis
Mr Ellis was very accurate with my condition and after months of pain was reassured when I saw him that I was in good hands and trusted him straight away was lucky enough to go to kims hospital which felt like a hotel and the staff were so friendly and so helpful. Mr Ellis and the kims team made my operation a breeze and aftercare was outstanding thank you everyone
