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. Elyan is so knowledgeable and caring. I am lucky to have him as my doctor!

In the short amount of time he is allotted for each patient and or appt he shows genuine concern about the person, their overall health at that moment, if the medicine is working and at what percentage it is working, he explains in every day people form what changes have or haven't taken place with your disease, as well as his recommendations for today & future, he insists you ask him questions and he gives you answers immediately. He makes me feel hopeful for my future with my RA. I look forward to seeing him each month, talking with and learning from him during each visit. I would a d have recommended him.

Dr. Elyan treated me for rheumatoid arthritis for several years. I had tried 3 doctors before I was lucky enough to find Dr. Elyan. He is by far the best doctor for my arthritis. He did more to relieve the pain than anyone. And he was always available for "emergency" treatments. He could always squeeze me in at least the next day and that is fantastic when you are in extreme pain from an arthritis flare-up. I would recommend Dr. Elyan to anyone.

I have had chronic health problems for years. Several doctors simply told me they could not help me without even making any effort. Dr. Elyan was a breath of fresh air. He reviewed my records before my first visit with him, listened to my story, asked many questions and took notes. He may not be able to cure me but he is trying his best to help me and that means a lot to me and my family.

Dr. Elyan was the doctor that diagnosed me with rheumatoid arthritis. He is wonderful. He always listens to my concerns and makes adjustments accordingly. He always takes the time to address and explain why he's changing something to better treat my symptoms. If I call with a flare or symptoms it is always addressed with an appointment or a recommendation. I would recommend him to anyone!

Excellent physician, takes necessary time to explain things, why he is taking a certain approach, and answers all questions to my satisfaction. I was diagnosed with Lupus (SLE) and it is a complex disease but he helps make some sense of what I am experiencing. My wife also sees him and has the same take.

I was a patient when I lived in Michigan, i now live in Cleveland, Ohio! One of the best rheumatologist I've seen ever, wish he was here in Cleveland, though two of the rheumatologist I have seen here have done their residency with Dr Elyan, I personally prefer Dr Elyan hands down! Please come to Cleveland ?

I've been a patient at that office for well over a year the doctor I was seeing decided to quit and she had children I had to wait for months to get an appointment at that point with Dr Elyan. Had to change my appointment because of staph infection and they wanted me to wait another 4 months so at that point my Rheumatology needs were not being taken care of. Very Disappointed. Cancelled all future care.. we'll find another doctor that cares about their patients & their needs which isn't Dr E
