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.

Good visit. Attentive and knowledgeable.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ellis?
Dr. Ellis operated on me for a brow lift and extra skin on side of eyes blocking my peripheral vision. The results are disastrous. There are deep scars above my eyebrows, and one eyebrow is higher than the other. My eye lid is swollen and falling so the eyelids are uneven. There is still extra skin around my eyes. The surgery was not successful; it is blotched. My eye doctor and staff said that I should definitely not return to her, since she suggested that she could fix her mistakes. My eye doctor has referred me to another Dr. to fix her blotched surgery.
