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 Elston is very personable and friendly. His staff is very helpful. As for a surgeon I give him an 11 out of 10. He made me feel very comforatble before the procedure and then explained everything to my husband afterwards and answered any of our questions.

My mother had an outpatient surgery with Dr Elston. He spent more time than I was expecting telling her about the procedure, why it needed to be done prior to another surgery for a knee replacement a couple months later. He reviewed risks/benefits of the procedure. Post-operatively he met with me and showed me intraoperative pictures taken during surgery showing me what he had done. Dr. Elston is obvisously very accomplished surgeon and also a great person!!!
