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.

Above and Beyond
My mom had a stroke and multiple heart attacks. Dr. Elgar went above and beyond in his care and even stopped me in the hospital to provide support when he wasn’t on duty. His commitment to patients exceeds the norm.

I was very comfortable at our first meeting. He actually read my entire chart in front of me while discussing different points. I'm glad I found him.

I had a stroke and have a lot of questions about my condition and my future. Dr. Elgar was extremely rude to me and refused to answer any of my questions. At the end of the appointment, he walked out of the room without a word. I have changed doctors and I only hope that my next doctor cares about their patients.

He was a good Dr. but my dad was in and out of rehab and hospital and each time was treated. and sent back to rehab. It took my personal NP to suggest that my dad have a video swallow test to find out why dad was having pneumonia at least once a month. She suggested that I mention about a video swallow test to her is sounded like he was aspirating. This test was done and that was what was happening. My dad has not been home since November Why was this not suggested like 3 months ago.
