Ruptured my ACL skiing and was lucky enough to have a physiotherapist friend recommend Mr Elson. I was very impressed he was professional yet down to earth and did a fantastic reconstruction of my ACL with minimal scarring. I would highly recommend him.

I found Mr Elson to be approachable and extremely patient with my many questions. He took time to understand my issue, the impact it was having and what I hoped to achieve. He explained in detail a number of options and I was absolutely delighted that a non-surgical solution achieved fantastic results, enabling me to continue with long distance walking. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and will definitely return should I need further treatment in the future.

I can not thank Mr Elson enough. Right from the very beginning I found him approachable respectful and polite. After the consultation I knew what to expect and was very happy that the surgery went ahead within a very short time. His bedside manner before and after surgery was brilliant and very reassuring. The surgery has given me my life back as I’m able to get back to my social activities without pain. Thank you so much.

Mr Elson was great from beginning to end. He intially spoke to me on the phone after I booked online. During our face to face appointment he was friendly, warm and welcoming. He really spent time getting to understand the difficulties I was having with my knee and reflecting on potential options to help moving forward. Thankfully nothing was needed imminently and he even gave be a better outlook on my knee than I had been given previously, this was invaluable. Great guy and highly recommended
