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.

The worst doctor experience of my life
Probably one of the worst doctor office experiences I’ve had. I went in to be checked for a cold and breathing problems. They put me in a room with a PA who had me change in front of her with the door cracked open. Then she started to do EKG work and informed me I was at a cardiologist office but that he also practices internal medicine but that I needed to have this done. I waited an hour for her to get this done because the machine kept breaking and she didn’t know how to fix it. Then the doctor came in and said I had an express experience since I was waiting for a while and that he would just listen to my lungs quick. He then said he thought I had bronchitis and he’d give me an inhaler from the office and continued to called me Sweetie. I was rushed out after having to take off the EKG stickers off myself. Absolutely zero beside manner. I get to the front desk and he called in 5 difference prescriptions but didn’t explain anything.

I started going to this office years ago when the older Doc was there. I used to think that doctor was great. Once Elatat and his staff, including wife, Sara, who is the rudest of them all took over, it became a disaster. I gave the office my FMLA papers, as i have done for years b4 and after months, they were not properly filled out. I finally spoke with the wife Sara, who at first told me, the person who handles it is on vacation, after 2weeks I called, and Sara told me she threw out my papers. Just like that.!!!!! I couldn't believe the unprofessionalism. I went into the office and Sara was nasty and rude. I insisted speaking to Dr. Eltat, who told me his wife is over worked and understaffed so i should understand her frustrations. I was livid. He then suggested, just like that i find a new doctor. Which i did b4 i got there anyway. But the insensitivity of it all!!!! Find another Doc, this place does not care. Unnecessary tests to scam insurance companies. 0 stars

outstading doctor. I am very pleased with this Dr. El-Atat. He shared the office with my prior doctor who retired but I feel very comfortable with him and his as staff. I convinced my husband and daugter to join as one of his patients and they love him too. If you are looking for a good and effective doctor please consider him.
