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.

Thank You Dr E for Understanding.... I’ve been a patient Dr E for many years now & I'm 100% satisfied with him & his entire staff. I’ve been dealing with back pain for 38 years due to a drunk driver/car accident. I’ve had multiple back surgeries that lead to more back problems, plus permanent nerve damage that has left me disabled for the last 20 years. Through the years of seeing several neurosurgeons, orthopedic drs, physical therapy, a spinal stimulator implant, many epidurals and a bunch of other procedures to no avail; I finally found a Dr who truly cares & has sincere empathy for his patients, Dr Eric Ehlenberger. After trying several different medications & alternative medicines, Dr E now has it to where I can live my life to where I control my pain, instead of my pain controlling me. I’m forever grateful for his expertise, his advice, his understanding & the time he takes with each patient to make their life more enjoyable while you’re dealing with pain. Pam LeBlanc

Office staff is completely inconsiderate of patients in my experience. Wait times to see the doctor is a minimum 2 and a half hours every month despite being told next month it wouldn't be that bad. Longest I waited to see the doctor was almost 4 hours one time and this coming from a patient that was there for about a year.

I found Dr Ehlenberger to be the greatest doctor i have seen in 30 years of attempting to not suffer from back pain. He is totally educated on current laws and looks after your well being. He is extremely careful to review your medical history and insure you do not have drug interactions. He did more for me than any doctor has ever done and I am very proud to have met him.
