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
Dr. Ellis is one of the most compassionate doctors I have encountered in the Atlanta area. He becomes completely familiar with your medical record, listens to your reasons for your appointment with his office, discusses with you the various options for treatment he can offer you for your health issues, and he and you can come to a reasonable plan. I have been pleased with my care and will continue with Dr. Ellis. Because of Dr. Ellis’s plan of treatment, I have been able to have a quality of life I could not have otherwise have had.

Dr. Ellis owner of Ellis pain is a superb doctor. He cares about his patients. He has worked very hard over the last two months developing a plan to help me get my quality of life back. He is very thorough in reviewing information re. my pain. ie MRI,bone scans, and exrays. He also treats his patients with dignity, and respect. After having no quality of life, I am finally like the person I used to be. I am so thankful,and honored to be cared for by Dr. Ellis. Ask your Dr. to refer you to him.

Can't see Dr Ellis- just a PA every time. Too many patients for Jeremy to remember one visit to the next after many months there. Past records are not reviewed to see the extent of injuries so pain is NOT relieved for any quality of life, which is why people are there. CDC guidelines are NOT laws, but he lies that they are. If he lived one day with this pain, his attitude would change. Asked him over to see his failing plan firsthand- he won't. Find a DR not afraid to practice medicine-not here

Dr. Ellis and his staff are always professional, friendly and gentle. Every cleaning I've received was thorough and painless. Dr. Ellis does a fantastic job at developing a dental plan if needed and understands the importance of being up front about costs. He's great at setting a timeline that allows you to get the most effective outcomes with as little out of pocket possible. I recommend Dr. Ellis fully. A+++

I love Dr. Ellis because he cares so much about his patients and tries his best to get you out of pain. He listens to what you have to say and treats you like a person instead of like some offices where you feel like an animal being herded in and out.

Dr. Ellis and his office staff are very nice and knowledgeable. I have never experienced a wait time shorter than his - I have never been in the waiting room longer than 10 minutes. I trust his clinical judgement and appreciate his conservative approach (he will not do unnecessary procedures that some would just so they can charge for it). I have had a great experience at his office and would recommend it to anyone and everyone!
