I have recently had a knee replacement by Mr. Ellis. I am now practically pain free, such a relief. Many thanks to Mr. Ellis and his team, the care I received could not have been better. I would have no qualms about having my other knee replacement should the time come that I feel it necessary.
I would not hesitate to recommend this surgeon to others.
Many thanks to you.

Just back from my 7 week check up with Mr Ellis. He really is a remarkable surgeon and a very kind and caring doctor. He takes time to explain things and he also takes time to listen to you. I have had a total knee replacement and during the whole process Mr Ellis has been amazing.

Mr. Ellis was very helpful at all times and took the time to see me when I had an infection in my knee after the operation, which was treated successfully.
Now my knee is stable and I have no pain, which is great.
Mr. Ellis also offered to refer me to an ankle and foot specialist to try to sort out a
foot problem I have, which was very helpful.

In the second week of January I went to Mr.Ellis after recommendation from my highly regarded physio. I was not disappointed, Mr Ellis made me feel welcome and as comfortable as possible.
I had extensive surgery on my patella tendon and ligaments after a serious football injury. After first diagnosis I was told I may not walk properly again, 4 months down the line I am already swimming, cycling and very short distance jogging.
I could not have asked for anymore!!!!

I was very happy with the hamstring graft reconstructive surgery performed by Mr Ellis. He took care to ensure every part of the knee was sorted out - not just the ACL during surgery which I am extremely thankful for. In addition, the aftercare has been fantastic: he has taken the time to reassure me when the physio's advice was 'confusing' and let me know that he was contactable if I needed to speak to him. In every appointment he has taken the time to ensure that my queries are answered. Thanks to his care I am now back to my physical job and looking forward to badminton, and strutting my stuff on the dance floor in the future. I have no hesitation in recommending this surgeon who I view as conscientious and caring. Thank you so much Mr Ellis!
