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.

Dr. E is a wonderful doctor and i have enjoyed being his patient. However its his office staff that I have a problem with.

Wonderful doctor
Dr. Eleje actually looked at me and spoke to me at length. He seemed to very much about my issues and put a plan into place while I was at the visit. He was pleasant, friendly and I felt I was being listened too. He's my new family doctor. Just wonderful!

Great Doctor
Was a patient for several years before I moved out of state. Really miss Dr Eleje 's expertise, his kindness, his office staff has always been very helpful and friendly. Always seen no longer than fifteen minutes past appointment time. Would highly recommend, wish I lived back in Texas.

Unfortunately our experience was not good on our last visit taking our grandmother. No beside manners and did not even check her like most physicians do. We were very disappointed and will look for a new doctor.

Dr. Elege took care of my parents in their later years. He always listened carefully to them. He was always straightforward and did not sugarcoat. He was always very kind (and straightforward) to me as the primary caregiver. If he recommended hospitalization, he would be at the hospital almost immediately checking up to make sure that my parents were properly cared for. Even my Mom liked him, and that's saying a lot!

Have filed a complaint about this Doctor for kicking me out of the hospital when I was there for a aneurysm surgery. Never seen or talked to him before. Flied a case with the El Paso police department and state agencies. Hopefully I can have his license revoked and get him kicked out of the country. He could have cost me my life. This is a very sick person, stay away..

I would never recommend Dr. Eleje after he told my friend there is no way he believed he had a heart attack (without even looking at the EKGs). My friend almost left the hospital because of this. The next morning a heart catheterization showed a 99% blockage of the "widowmaker" LAD. Had he listened to Eleje he would have left the hospital and probably DIED within weeks. Dr. Eleje needs to reacquaint himself with the hippocratic oath of do no harm.

I was very disappointed in my last visit with Dr. Eleje.. As I began explaining my sensitive concerns, he received a phone call, and instead of excusing himself to tell the caller that he can talk later, Dr. Eleje proceeded to answer and partake in a discussion over the phone with me in the room. I was frustrated and perplexed. I waited and waited, only for him to give me less time than his chat with the caller. Needless to say, I am switching Dr.'s. One good note: nurses and staff!

The most caring Doctor I have ever had. He sends me to the best specialist when necessary. I'm always able to walk in when I'm not well and I'm seen usually within an hour. He has been there for me when I was in crisis and near death. Thank you for all of your wonderful care

The most caring Doctor that has ever been my primary physician. Never have I been denied an appointment if I called and needed medical attention. He is very careful to send me to specialists when I need specialized care. He also communicates well with other professionals involved in my care.
