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 would absolutely not recommend Dr. Elliott. The appointments are brief and he largely uninterested. I have been calling his clinic for over a year pleading for a phone call in regard to a surgery he performed on my knee 3 yrs prior, only to hear the doctor is entirely too busy for phone calls. And, btw my graft failed and I had another surgery, the experience was an enormous improvement! Do yourselves a favor, go see someone who might have less experience but more heart and time for you.

After a few visits with the PT, and follow ups with Eliott, the PT told me to go back to Eliott and "tell him what I actually HAD was a destroyed ACL which needed replaced ASAP". The PT expressed his surprise that Eliott hadn't done an MRI in the first place and diagnosed it properly. Fast Forward to the following ye
