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.

Great doctor
Wonderful Dr. Has treated my knee, back/hip. Listens well. Compassionate.! Quick response, one can tell he really knows his medical field. I have complete trust in Dr Elmlinger.

Excellent Dr.; Took plenty of time reviewing my MRI with me and explaining my injury. He gave me an injection (didn’t want to rush into surgery) which helped temporarily. Wonderful personality. I definitely recommend him and will be going back for this and another issue.

Dr. Elmlinger is very down to earth. He listens and addresses your concerns. Highly recommend. Only downfall is related to wait time at office visits. One day I was there 3 hours. Next visit I was there 45 mins. :/
