Patient Reviews
Feb 02, 2025
Dr Ellis has replaced both my knees and both my wife’s knees over the past 12 months. His skill and care were outstanding. Dr Ellis explains everything about surgery and recovery clearly. He listens and answers any questions patiently. His P.A., Mark, is also excellent. We have confidence and trust in Dr. Ellis and would recommend him and his team without reservation.
