A very warm and friendly gentleman, made me and my wife very welcome, asked questions about my ailment, listened to my replies, explained possible problem, course of action to be taken thoroughly, made sure we were aware of the time involved and what to do if time line was not maintained, confirmed my understanding and gave contact numbers should I have any problems/questions.

Simon was lovely made feel at ease straight away. He was friendly and explained things in detail that I could understand. He answered all my questions without me feeling silly and also answered my friends questions as she was accompanying me for the appointment. A genuinely nice man. I know having my future knee surgery I will be in safe hands.

Simon is a very able and communicative diagnostician and surgeon. He is a surgeon with “old school” values but with up to date knowledge. I have consulted him on different issues both as an inpatient and as an outpatient and I have received first class advice and care on every occasion.

I have the utmost confidence in Mr Ellis following my initial visit in November. He gave me a thorough examination and explained my condition to me. A MRI was quickly arranged and I will receive the results tomorrow. Thank you
