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.

I had very painful lower back pain for several years. I’ve had numerous shots in my lower back for years without success. Dr. Elahi performed a procedure called LinQ and is for stabilizing in the sacroiliac joints by putting in a “spacer” between the sacrum and the hips. The feeling from pain every day of my life to waking up without pain is life changing. Thank you Dr. Elahi.

5 * for Dr. Elahi and zero for his office staff
I didn't want to go to Dr. Elahi but he is the only dr in the area who can perform the procedure I needed. I had based my opinion on reviews but I should have remembered not to judge someone without getting to know them. While it's true that his front office staff is rude and stand offish, his PA and other staff working with him in the patient's room is very helpful, professional and friendly. Dr. Elahi came in and gave me several options. I asked questions and he took time to explain each one to me and helped me decide which course of treatment would be best for me. I was pleasantly surprised by his bedside manner and I felt completely comfortable with my decisions based on our conversation. I will continue to trust Dr. Elahi with my pain management and whatever procedures necessary to ensure my comfort. I only wish he would do something about his front office staff. They definitely could be more welcoming and professional.

If only we could give 0
I will not be going back Staff was commenting and talking about patience after they left. Rushing people in and out. Giving no more than 2-3 minutes max and wouldn’t listen, look or check anything.

’ll leave this man a single star for the fact that he has the ability to change someone’s life for the better. Problem is, his bedside manner is one that is absolutely insulting at best. Within seconds of walking into the room I was rushed into, he immediately tells me that having a surgical procedure to implant a neurostimulator is in my best interest. He clearly did not want to be bothered by listening to me for even a few seconds. I’m a highly educated, very active business woman and mother of six. I’m well aware of what treatment and surgical procedures I’ve had and what most certainly did work for me. He only talked over me, bringing the “Boston Scientific guy” and another assistant to tell me that 1. I need to “Learn” and 2. “The Attitude” (suggesting it’s my attitude that needs to change on the medical implant he suggested without even having a true conversation with me. I simply shared that my last doctor had done radio frequency ablation and I had great results from that proce

SCARY, UNSANITARY DOCTOR – Aug 19, 2021

RIDICULOUS! My husband had an appt with him just today at 2:30 and last night we read the reviews hoping they weren’t true. Well they were! It is completely clear he is ONLY worried about pushing procedures that he does. he most definitely DOES NOT listen to the patient AT ALL. My husband wasn’t pill seeking in anyway however he wanted some sort of relief. Dr. Elahi prescribed him medication he already has and makes him sick and he prescribed it anyway! They also were non narc. Will no go back!
