Mr Ellis Downes MBChB FRCOG

Mr Ellis Downes is a Consultant Gynaecologist with over 25 years of experience supporting women with gynaecological and hormonal concerns. Patients commonly see him for perimenopause and menopause symptoms, advice around HRT, abnormal uterine bleeding, urinary leakage and recurrent bladder infections.

Ellis understands that symptoms during midlife can be distressing, confusing or difficult to manage, particularly when treatments have not worked as expected. He is known for taking time to listen carefully, exploring symptoms in detail and helping patients make sense of what is happening in their body, before agreeing a clear and practical plan together.

Ellis has particular expertise in menopause and peri-menopause care, including the management of complex or persistent symptoms and complications related to HRT. Patients often value his balanced, evidence-based approach and his ability to explain options clearly without pressure, helping them feel confident in decisions about their treatment.

In clinic, Ellis is known for his calm, thoughtful manner and the strong, long-term relationships he builds with his patients. Many women appreciate his experience, honesty and the reassurance that comes from seeing someone who has supported thousands of patients through similar concerns.

Alongside his clinical work, Ellis has contributed extensively to education and research in gynaecology. While he continues to be involved academically behind the scenes, his priority in every consultation is ensuring patients feel heard, supported and well looked after.

Outside of work, Ellis enjoys boating, improving his golf game and spending time with his family.
