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.

Excellent Surgeon
Looking back, I realize how fortunate I, and my family, were to find Dr. Elmann. After my cardiologist found five blockages, I was operated on by Dr. Elmann. That was in June of 2012. I have been living a well-lived life since then and just have regular cardiology visits and tests. I seriously doubt I would have lived this long if not for the experienced hands and knowledge of this exceptional doctor.

My mom had surgery on October 26
I recently had the opportunity to witness the exceptional surgical skills of Dr. Elie Elmann, and I must say that he is truly an outstanding surgeon. My mother was in dire need of a critical surgery with high risks involved, and Dr. Elmann's expertise and professionalism were absolutely remarkable.From the very first consultation, Dr. Elmann made it a point to thoroughly explain the procedure, potential risks, and expected outcomes. His ability to communicate complex medical information in a clear and compassionate manner instantly put our family at ease. He patiently addressed all our concerns and answered every question we had, instilling a sense of confidence in his abilities.During the surgery itself, Dr. Elmann's precision and attention to detail were evident. He displayed exceptional technical skills and carefully navigated through the complexities of the procedure. It was evident that he had a deep understanding of the intricacies involved, and his confidence in the operatin

Excellent Surgeon
Dr. Elmann is an excellent surgeon who saved my life. He told my family that I was a candidate for sudden death if he had not replaced my aortic valve and did coronary bypass. He is extremely thorough with explaining everything, compassionate and saw me every day in the hospital.

Dr. Elmann removed the lower lobe of my right lung on November 28, 2016 due to a malignant tumor. He is a caring, compassionate and professional doctor. He came to see me every day while I was in the Hospital and he even came in on a Saturday!! I would highly recommend Dr. Elmann to any other patient.

I had open heart surgery in November of 2016. Doctor Elmann was excellent in explaining everything before the surgery and visiting me every day after the surgery. Also speaking with my family. He is one of the few doctors that truly cares about his patients.
