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.

Excellent doctor
He listens and take good care of his patients, explaining pros and cons of available treatments, always looking for the best option.

Great doc! Very Knowledgeable.
Dr. Elhaj is very knowledgeable and attentive! I have been a patient of his for years, and he genuinely wants to make sure you are doing well. I can always count on him to follow up on my bloodwork & answer my questions. He definitely listens to my concerns. I am a complicated case and tend to self manage a lot, but being a patient of Dr. Elhaj I do not have to stress quite as much. I wish there were more doctors like him. You can tell he has a passion for what he does.

Great First Visit
This was my first time to see Dr Elhaj. His review of my medical status was quite thorough. Areas where he recommended change to the programme I’ve previously followed, he explained fully. I was impressed with his knowledge, his communication skills and his overall approach to manage my health. I feel comfortable and confident in trusting Dr Elhaj with my health care.
