Patient Reviews
Dec 16, 2024
Five stars are not enough to rate Dr. Ellis. In the last nine years I've had two different surgeries by Dr Ellis, a neck surgery and a spine surgery. Both surgeries have been incredibly successful. In the years leading up to my neck surgery, I collected information from people who'd undergone similar procedures, recording surgeon details and outcomes. When asking the neurodiagnostic center staff for top neurosurgeons with consistent success, they recommended Dr. Ellis. In the last year, I was in horrible pain for many months with lower sciatic back problems, living on medication. He took my existing conditions into account and was able to apply his expertise to eliminate all spinal pain. Dr. Ellis is a remarkably gifted surgeon, and I, as a patient, am so thankful.
