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.

He is everything a Doctor should be!!
He is simply amazing!!! He has amazing bedside manner always I have seen him for close to 10yrs, he has seen all of my kids and grandbabies and many of my friends and family members!!! His bedside manner is above and beyond along with his skills of diagnosing this that are difficult and he doesn't just try to throw a bunch of drugs at you and send you on her way. Please do not listen to the one bad review because unfortunately some people are just miserable and can never be Pleased!!! This doctor literally saved me when over a dozen other doctors gave up on figuring what was wrong with me (including the cdc)!!! You will never find a more kind, compassionate, smart, caring doctor anywhere he is a dying breed 100 percent!! Consider yourself lucky if you are fortunate enough to have him as a doctor!! And no I am not a friend or family member and have no affiliation to him or any of the offices he works at, I am just so forever grateful to him for saving me!

Dr Elmir has helped my walk again. My legs used to hurt and look awful, now I can actually walk almost completely pain free, and I have started to wear shorts again. I haven't worn shorts in over 15 years. Thank you atlas team.

I stepped on a needle which broke and was wedged deep in my foot. Dr. Elmir used xray guidance to remove the needle, I am very appreciative.

I took my son to urgent care yesterday because he could not get into his primary. He was seen by Dr Elmir. He came into the room...didn’t even look at my son or the rash all over his body. Terrible bedside manner. Misdiagnosed my son with an allergic reaction which is far from what it is...which I found out by getting a second opinion by following up with his pediatrician today. The medicine he gave him could have actually ended up making it worse. Horrible.

I have only seen him twice, but I absolutely love him. Smart, educated, realistic, great instincts. Very conservative way of treatment. Can't recommend him enough.

Went to Urgent Care on a Sunday in The Villages with cough/sore throat. He looked at my throat and then asked what antibiotic works for me! He did NOT look in my ears, check gland swelling in neck....worse of all he didn't listen to my chest UNTIL he had already filled out summary on his laptop and I asked about my chest! He said what he was prescribing( after I told him what I knew others were taking for similar symptoms) would cover cough. Next day went to primary care. Worse care ever!

Dr Elmir is professional who truly cares about the patient. I liked that he explained what he is doing and why he is doing it when performing a minor procedure.
