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.

I trust her completely!

I just had surgery with Dr. Ellen Phillips. I was very nervous about it , but she was very explanatory and patient with my questions. The surgery turned out to be more complicated because of unforeseen issues with my health, but she handled it with confidence and ease. She then came into my hospital room every day before I left to check on me and answer any questions. Her nurses even said she always maintains communication to ensure she is updated with any new issues. She managed my pain with consideration and effectiveness. I have never in my life seen a doctor show such caring and thoroughly invest in my health. She is the best by far! If you are reading this and need a OBGYN, the I recommend Dr. Phillips with pleasure and experience.

Dr. Phillips is never in a hurry and truly wants to help you with any issue you have going on. She listens intently...ponders what you say ...then works to find a solution. She is kind, and gentle AND makes going for your annual GYN appointment easy and comfortable because of her amazing bedside manner. Thanks you Dr. Phillips for being such a caring Physician!!

Went for my yearly PAPS (which it has been 3yrs since my last one) and saw Dr. Phillips. I really like her!! She is personable, honest, knowledgable, & I felt for the first time in a long time that I was actually seeing a Dr. that had my best interest in mind not her financial interest in mind. Thank you for rebuilding some confidence in going to a doctor as a good trustworthy thing!!!!

Dr Phillips is by far the best Doctor. she is kind and attentive. she is what every woman is looking for in a doctor. Her billing staff leaves little to be desired. they on 3 separate occasions have not even filed claims but sent them to collections. when you call and try to deal with these two women they laugh at you and make your life more miserable.. it sad because every year I cant wait to see Dr phillips but hate to deal with them,

I have seen many gynecologists over the years and she was the first to be proactive in helping me with my health problems. She was caring and passionate. I had an amazing experience and look forward to future visits.

Dr. Phillips is a wonderful doctor! I would not trust any other doctor with my body! She has delivered my babies and has done my surgeries, and she has been great! She is one of the doctors that truly cares about her patients and wants what's best for them! I would recommend her to any and everyone.. I actually do. My mother , sister, and friends are now seeing her after I recommend her!
