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.

Helpful, professional, and knowledgeable
I've been seeing Dr. Elliott for a little over a year now, and he has been great. I initially came in for what felt like a scratch on my eye, and after he took a look at it he saw what the actual culprit was. He took time to explain what was going and how we could correct it. Over multiple follow up visits, he adjusted treatment as things changed, and I now don't have irritation at all. He also helped identifying that it was time to start utilizing glasses as my job had changed to more time looking at a screen.Overall, I'd happily recommend Dr. Elliott to anyone looking for a new eye doctor.

Great first visit with Dr. Michael Elliott
I made an appointment with Dr. Elliott because the opthamologist that I previously saw (Donald Ristad) retired at the end of last year. I've had only one experience with Dr. Elliott, but it was totally positive. He is friendly, cheerful and seemed interested in me as a person. He took adequate time to explain results of tests that had been done earlier in the day. I would heartily recommend Dr. Elliott.

Negative from start to finish resulting in glasses I can’t wear. Yes, I did return to discuss with the doctor who took zero responsibility - very much the opposite. Very sad to have to leave a negative review but would be irresponsible not to.

  • Didn't listen or answer questions
