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.

A real gem to have in our area
Dr Eller is one of the kindest and caring physicians I have met. As a physician myself I am very much aware of quality care and you certainly can expect it here. The staff is some of the best and Dr Eller is at the forefront of her field in knowledge-coupled with her personality, this is the best it gets. Thanks for all your help.

Kind, Caring, Compassionate, Competent Karen
I have struggled to live with a degenerative spine for decades. Thank God he led me to Doctor Karen Eller's practice. Dr. Eller possesses the education, training, skills, competency, and compassion to treat acute and chronic pain successfully. Her staff is equally kind, caring, compassionate, and competent in their expertise. They genuinely care for the individual, not the diagnosis. She will remain my physician, until I die.

I was in extreme pain from pinched nerves in my spine. Dr. Eller was able to identify the source of the inflammation and administer a cortisone injection that has all but eliminated the pain until I can get into physical therapy to ameliorate my structural issues. I found her caring, professional and very intelligent!

Dr Eller has been open to trying several ways to manage my chronic back pain. Seeing improvement but not pain free yet.

Absolutely run do not walk away. This so called "doctor" horror in a lab coat. Take your money and insurance to a reputable doctor that cares about his or her patients.

I think Dr. Eller is fantastic! I have been seeing her for my Sacroilliac joint pain and hip pain. She is smart, kind, and has an overall great bedside manner. I would highly recommend Dr. Eller!
