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 partner was a patient of dr Ellis. He was rude, demeaning and demonstrated unprofessional conduct throughout the appt. said that he had “actual patients” that needed to be seen. His level of negligence and substandard care became more evident in follow up conversations. He eventually abandoned my partner as his patient and refused to respond to the very primary care doctors that sought his opinion in a diagnosis. This doctor is not a expert- he is a hack with a formal CA board complaint.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Ellis?
Was under his care for 8 years for Idiopathic progressive polyneuropathy, Radicular syndrome/lower limbs & Epilepsy/Seizures. He was OK at first, only spent 5-6 min on EVERY appointment. After years of mediocre appointments, I had issues I needed his help with. One medical & another was for help with a program that HE needed to fill paperwork out for. First time I reached out to him in years. He never once responded & refused to see me. Would not recommend to my enemies!!
