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 Ellison would not come into the room to look at my mother . They said he was too busy with his patients. My mother is 94 and it was her second visit. Both times she was seen by the nurse practitioner/physicians assistant. We said she needs to see the doctor. They said that he was now busy with a phone call and wouldn’t have time.

In late April of this year, my husband was placed in the hospital for a severe infection in his arm. He ended up staying two weeks, some of the time in I.C.U. Thankfully, he was placed under Dr. Ellison’s expert care. Dr. Ellison made sure he conferred with other doctors necessary for this unusual situation. Knowing I couldn’t visit him due to the COVID19 pandemic, Dr. Ellison called me daily with an update on my husband’s condition. On days of surgery, he contacted me twice. He even looked in on him on the weekend he wasn’t scheduled to work. My husband and I are both grateful for the superb care he gave and for the caring and compassion shown us. A big “thank you” to him.

Very considerate of my needs. Caring and very talented. He has performed several surgeries on my hands (not for the same thing) and I have been very pleased. Aftercare was also a very pleasant experience. I would recommend him to anyone needing hand surgery.
