The care I have received has been excellent. Mr Elledge's expertise was greatly appreciated as was his gentle and calming manner during the procedure. Although there was a setback post surgery I have been cared for extemely well by both Mr Elledge and the dressing team.

Am so glad you felt at ease and supported. Sometimes this is more than half the job and the surgery is very much a secondary consideration. Deciding when to operate is the "difficult bit", as decision that we take together only if it is right for you! Wishing you all the best!

I visited Ross with jaw pain and potential wisdom tooth issues. Ross was extremely thorough and friendly putting me at ease that he understood the issue and recommended the next step course of treatment. Ross is an excellent surgeon with a very nice manner.

I was in acute pain for 7 months , went to 3 doctors before I met Mr Elledge . He was the only one to diagnose that I had trigeminal neuralgia and gave me medication for it . I’m very grateful for his diagnosis as I’m able to eat and sleep in peace. Will definitely recommend Mr Ellege , he’s a great doctor.

Thank you so much for this review. A tricky diagnosis with no clear diagnostic test but all in the history. Am genuinely so happy the medication is working and things are looking better. Immensely satisfying to restore quality of life for you and just so happy to hear this.

Mr Ross Elledge was extremely helpful in doing a thorough checkup, providing a diagnosis and explaining in detail my condition as well as the options. He was very empathetic and patient, appeasing my concerns and answering all my questions. He also went out of his way to go through my previous scans to ensure that he provided me the best possible guidance in managing my TMJ condition. I really appreciate that he took ownership of my case and ensured that any next steps were completed as fast as possible. Thank you for all your help, reassurance and the excellently combined literature that you shared which helped make my condition and choices clearer!

Thank you so much for such a comprehensive review. Some things really stood out for me! Am so glad you felt that I took ownership, as I want patients to feel that they have an anchor during a period of diagnostic uncertainty. The other thing here is the literature. For me an evidence-based practice is everything as both an academic and a clinician. So I love that this came across and you felt that everything I said was built on solid foundations. Wish you all the best and thanks again for this review!

Ross is one of the upcoming generation of surgeons who has excelled and will develop our speciality in the 21st Century. He is developing his expertise in TMD management and TMJ surgery and continues to want to improve his skills in learning from his peers. He is an editor of the British Journal or Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. I have both presented with him on the same stage, worked with him as he expands his expertise and worked with him on textbooks of OMFS. One of the few surgeons in the UK who I would recommend and send patients to for a second opinion on TMD management
