- 5 Star consultant. He is brilliant.
- Great pathway to Drs you require, many thanks!
- I cannot recommend Mr. Ellamushi highly enough. He explains everything in detail, in an easy to understand way and has a very patient and caring nature. Mr. Ellamushi and his wonderful team, have saved me from facing eventual paralysis, for which I am so grateful.
- This is the first terrible experience I have had with a doctor - I was booked in for an appointment at 7PM & travelled for 25mins in pain to find he did not show up. Mistakes can happen but to get the receptionist to pass on a lip service sorry & promise a call back first thing in the morning demonstrates your character & professionalism. To make things worse: - No call back to rearrange in the morning nor the next day - No explanation for the no show once I get through to your office (only after I prompted) - I have had multiple promises of 'Call you at the end of the day' for other appointments & have had enough. Unlike any other field of work there is no accountability other than a review & switching to another consultant which I am doing .
- A top-quality understanding doctor, and a real gentleman too.
- Absolutely amazing! After 3 years of suffering and not a clear pathway of the help I can receive for my slipped discs Mr Ellamushi answered my questions so clearly, helped guide me and gave me so much time and care. The best decision I made booking too see him! Thank you.
- Doctor was unable to advise for the reason i went to see him.
- Mr Ellamushi is an excellent doctor and had an excellent understanding of my back problem.
- I do not have any comments or suggestions as I don’t believe Mr Ellamushi does not need it. I felt very comfortable, he was very respectful and knowledgeable. He explained everything perfectly to me. I felt I was in very capable hands, thank you
