Dr. Alexandra Elliott, MD

My daughter has been a patient of Dr. Elliott since 2009, when she was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma. It was entangled in her optical nerves and protruding out the front. She skillful removed the tumor and the rest with radiation and Kristen did not loose her eyesight or her life. Cant put into words how wonderful our experience was and continues to be.

Dr. Elliot skillfully removed our son's dermoid cyst through a small eye-lid incision. Swelling was almost non-existant. Couldn't be happier with the outcome.

I wouldn't know. They tried to convince me that I booked with the "booking line" at Children's but upon further review, I called directly to their department. They booked me an urgent appointment based on my daughters needs after checking with Dr. Elliot. I showed up today for the 3:15 appointment and we were told that we were not in her schedule at all. After I explained how this was booked and explained that we lived an hour away and that I moved my business trip for this appointment, the girl at the desk went and spoke with Dr. Elliot. She came back and said "Dr. Elliot would like you to come back Friday at 2pm"... I found this to be so incredibly rude. I understand that Dr. Elliot is supposed to be helping my daughter, but this does that mean that I should be inconvenienced by the mistake her office made. Furthermore, I dropped everything once for the appointment. Does she think that her time is more valuable than mine? Apparently she does.

My daughter was born with a coloboma ( left eye lid not completely closed). Dr. Elliot performed surgery on her eye at 6mths old. Today she is 10 and you would never know she was born with this condition. It was so scary to have to decide to have surgery at such a young age, but Dr. Elliott literally held our hand in the waiting room and made us feel so comfortable. Not only is she a gifted surgeon, but her bedside manner is top notch. You can tell she is a mom. Her eye is perfect!

We had seen 4 doctors for our daughter's condition prior to seeing Dr. Elliot - she was the first to actually have experience treating her condition, was able to explain it in detail & layman's terms, and was thorough. I actually was surprised at the length of time she took with us - compared to the previous 4 doctors that were clueless and rushed us through. I am recommending Dr. Elliot to anyone with pediatric eye issues.

Dr Elliot rushed my wife and I through 2 separate appointments for my infant son's eye issue. She completely misdiagnosed my son's condition. She not only misdiagnosed the problem, she focused on the wrong eye!!! As an Ophthalmologist at Children's Hospital, how does that happen? When we tried contacting her and she was wasn't available and was standoffish about having to call us back stating "I typically never take calls on this line".
