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.

I travelled from North Carolina to UCLA in Los Angles to be treated by Dr. Abemayor. He did my surgery for Parotid Gland cancer and I could not have asked for more professional treatment and compassion. He is the best. His staff were on top of every aspect of my treatment, from the first visit, through surgery, treatment and follow-up exams.

Dr Abemayer has been treating me for a lymph node problem and has been an honest kind, intelligent, forthcoming and caring physician. I can't imagine being in the hands of anyone as skilled as he is and am grateful for his handling of my case.

Doctor Elliot Abemayor and his surgical team are truly dedicated to your health. Dr. Abemayor is compassionate, empathetic, and highly skilled. It did not matter how many questions I asked, he answered them honestly and in a forthright manner. He also spent quality time explaining my diagnosis, treatment plan, and surgical outcomes. He also builds a positive rapport with his patients. He took the time to get to know my family and me, which greatly relieved my family’s anxiety regarding my health condition. Since I was referred from another health care institution, he communicated with all my doctors so that my health care team was updated on surgical and treatment plans. If you want a doctor who will validate your feelings, listen to your concerns and treat you humanely and with professional courtesy than choose Dr. Abemayor for he truly cares about your physical and emotional well-being. Dr. Abemayor truly saved and preserved the quality of my life.

Dr. Abemayor was extremely knowledgeable, courteous, professional, patient, and comforting with my mother. He took his time to explain everything so we felt at ease. His staff nurses and secretaries were very attentive and helpful, too. So glad to be in such good hands!

I was referred to Dr. Abemayor for a benign parotid tumor removal. He explained to me in details the surgery procedure and recommended a great plastic surgeon for the cosmetic portion of this surgery. He was very patient and shows great bedside manner. My surgery outcome was great! I'm very satisfied to have gone to him.

My condition was a complex one that no doctor in my area was comfortable with operating on. I received the best care that I could have hoped for. I was told beforehand that I would see him before and on the day of surgery, but this wonderful doctor found the time to see me a few times afterwards too. His team of doctors came twice daily and once daily over the weekend, so I was never stuck waiting with questions, and if it were important the nursing staff were on it straight away. ABSOLUTE BEST!

Dr. Abemayor just did surgery to remove my parotid tumor. From the moment I met Dr. Abemayor he was just what I was looking for in a surgeon. He was knowledgeable, made me feel confident in his skills and gave me all the info that I needed. He came and saw me in Pre-Op and after my surgery in my room. I don't want a doctor to hold my hand and tell me everything will be okay. I want a doctor who is the best at what he does! He is a skilled surgeon!
