Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Elias and her staff are cordial and gracious to new patients and old ones alike. The office is friendly and there is no "hurry-up" feeling at all. All are kind and understanding of those who are apprehensive about some of the tests that are run. I have never waited more than fifteen (15) minutes in the lobby, so wait times are not a problem at all. There ARE wait times involved for some of the tests and these cannot be held against Dr. Elias or her staff.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Elias?
Excellent practitioner - very thorough - even ordered blood work based on my eye health to rule out undiagnosed autoimmune diseases-wait times are LONG so bring a book, iPad, etc and don't plan any other appointments after an office visit - but her attention to detail, focus on whole body health as it relates to eye health & vision makes the wait worth it. If time is crucial I would probably ask for her very first appointment of the day. I am willing to wait when I find an excellent doctor.

She is a great doc but the wait times are ridiculous. I don't think an appoint should take over 1.5 hours!
