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.

My appointment with Dr Elkas
I just had my 1st visit with Dr. Elkas. He was very personable and easy to talk to. After reading my tests, he gave a detailed analysis of the situation and outlined the next steps. He careful listened and answered all of my questions and concerns, he even took time to ask my how my vacation was. I would highly recommend Dr Elkas.

Dr. Elkas has a comforting, reassuring demeanor and is skilled in his area of practice. I heartily recommend him. I have been a patient of his for over two years. His Annandale/Fairfax office staff is a whole other matter. I don’t think I have been to a professional or medical office that is as poorly operated as this one. Calls and emails are not returned (as in days and weeks even) with regard to appointments, scheduling surgery, and answering pre-op questions. Good luck ever getting through and talking to admin or medical staff person — it’s all voice recorders. There is no sense of accountability among staff either. Pleased though I was with Dr. Elkas, the management of this large group practice would give me serious pause to return to it or recommend it to others.
