I had been in pain for sometime with my right knee. I saw my GP and had the normal course of physiotherapy before it was decided that I should see an orthopaedic consultant. There are a fair few to choose from, but I decided to see Mr Ellis, given his extensive experience in this area. When I met him for the first time, he immediately put me at ease. He arranged for me to have an MRI scan and following the results of that, the decision was taken to operate. Mr Ellis and his team at KIMS were absolutely brilliant and I would highly recommend them. Thank you so much.

Complete professionalism from Mr Ellis and his team from start to finish. Excellent communication skills. Made the whole experience of having surgery a lot less stressful, explaining in full detail everything I needed and wanted to know, I could not recommend Mr Ellis enough.
