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 Elliot performed Kyphosis surgery on my 14 year old son. My son is free of pain & excelling. I would highly recommend Dr Elliot

I have to say, I was very scared of the diagnosis and then the surgery, not knowing what my daughter & her body was going through. the first time I met Dr. Elliott he explained in such an easy to understand way, and he was so involved with us, he talked to us like we were family. I immediately? felt trust for this Dr. I've never seen before. I'm 53 and seen my share of many Dr.s I know when I see one who is great professionally and personally. He is the best. Thank you for him.

My daughter and I have been have been coming to Dr. Elliott since she was in 7th grade and now she's a senior. Our experience with him has been great. He is very comforting, pateint and thorough. He perfomed her scoloious surgery back in 2013 and he continues to monitor her spine. Her surgery went smoothly & still today she is doing great. I highly recommend Dr. Elliot.

Dr. Elliot is a amazing Orthopedic Doctor. My daughter went in there with a broken ankle broke right at the growth plate. From day one just the knowledge and skill he had was incredible he answered every question and believe me we had allot. He went out of his way to make us comfortable and at the same time not beating around the bush he is straight forward. Dr. Elliot thank you for the last five years you checked and took care of my little girl. Today 12/19/2016 you gave us a clean billofhealth

We had seen 3 other surgeons, UC Davis, UCSF, and Stanford. We were referred to Dr. Elliott as we were told is specialized in children and was one of the best in the nation. What a GREAT doctor....truly made us feel as if he was treating his own child. Told us what was necessary vs. not necessary, and was not going to just give us something to make us feel good about the visit...HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Dr. Elliott is extremely knowledgable, compassionate, and experienced! He addresses all of our questions and concerns thoroughly! We never feel rushed during office visits because he gives us his undivided attention. He has a way of putting our minds at ease! Dr. Elliott has treated both of our children for scoliosis, one had surgery and one is currently braced. We have all the confidence in the world with his diagnosis and treatment! We highly recommend Dr. Elliot! He is the Best!!

He failed to help my daughter with her scoliosis which worsen dramatically. Got a second opinion at UCSF and they automatically got her a back brace, something this doctor refused to do. DO NOT SEE THIS DOCTOR.
