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.

Amazing
I was very worried due to my daughter having a cyst and a mass possible swollen lymph node under her armpit. She was able to us in the day I called. She took her time and answered and showed me what was going on. I am very glad I found Dr. Markley. Will be going back in a couple weeks.

Nothing but positive things to say about Dr. Markley and her staff. The girls at the front are welcoming and kind. Dr. Markley's warm and delicate approach made my daughter and I feel at ease. She pointed out her inguinal hernia right away, explained everything to me, answered all my questions. Surgery was at Coral Springs Medical Center and I have to say I was hands down surpassed with the quality of care my daughter received. The whole OR staff were very accommodating, super kind, positive, patient. Explained every detail to us. My daughter was at ease during surgery day. I really was blown away with the OR staff ( anesthesiologists, preop, post op, etc). Their checks and balances are on point too. Dr. Markley is just so great, very knowledgeable, explained the whole process, and completed surgery successfully, no issues. Post op was a breeze for my daughter. I have to say overall it was a very good experience and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for taking care of my baby!

Dr. Markley is my 17yo sons surgeon. He was completely comfortable with her from his initial consultation/visit. always able to ask questions freely and receive answers he could understand and follow. He is now 5 weeks post-op and feeling really good! We highly recommend Dr. Markley, the kindest, most professional surgeon I’ve met! Dr. Markley also has a wonderful staff, always pleasant and helpful.

My 13 year old daughter had a minor skin surgery with Dr. Markley and I must say her bedside manner exceeded my expectations. She is an amazing, knowledgeable and thorough Doctor and a superb human being, her eyes even smile behind her mask!! She was very patient and answered all of our questions, also very compassionate and has a great sense of humor. My daughter was extremely comfortable with her. Her office and staff are very pleasant as well. I highly recommend Dr. Markley.

My 3 year old daughter was admitted to the ER for abdominal protrusion and vomiting. We were so lucky to have Dr. Markley there to perform emergency surgery after finding out that my daughters condition was a lot more serious than we knew. After an extremely traumatic experience we were immediately relieved with the outcome being successful. Dr. Markley is knowledgeable, kind, and calm. I highly recommended her for any form of pediatric surgery your child may need. At a time when we were experiencing so much fear of the unknown as to what was going on with our poor child, she made us feel assured that everything will be ok. I am so very thankful for Dr. Markley, she is a wonderful surgeon and person.

My daughter and I had a terrible experience at the Coral Springs office today. I'm not sure how this dr has 5 star reviews or who wrote them. Dr Markley spent less than one minute in the exam room and was extremely dismissive. The office staff was unprofessional and extremely aggressive. The only positive is that an appointment was easy to get and the wait times were short, likely due to this provider's low quality of care.

After meeting with a couple of pediatric surgeons... I wasn't sure about the procedure until I met Dr. Markley. She made me feel so much at ease and explained everything in such a loving and caring way that I knew my baby would be in the best hands possible. She never judge me or made me feel stupid for being a scared first time mom and asking a million questions. I loved that. I highly recommend Dr. Markely with the care of your child.

My son saw Dr Michelle Marley for a pilonidal cyst. Our first review pre-surgery noted the staff and Dr. Markley were exemplary. Our opinion since has only increased. Post-surgery, due to scheduling we visited different offices and doctors. The staff everywhere is so amazingly professional and personable. (Nikki you are wonderful. Janet and Farah, you too). Everyone always exceeded our expectations. They listen, care, and even suggest solutions. Everyone is simply a cut above. And most especially Dr. Markley. Thank you so much for your exceptional professional skill. Beyond that we felt that you cared so much. That personal concern is as important as the medical care. Our only disappointment was underestimating the time needed to "sit out" of sports. Listen to the doctor. Today, that's all forgotten. Our son is playing competitively again without a thought of the cyst. If you need a Pediatric surgeon, you simply can't do better than Dr. Markley and staff.

To preface, I had required a pilonidal cyst surgery that I was being treated for by Dr. Markley. She is a very calm, sweet, and professional surgeon who has been very helpful and informative with explaining my issue to me and my family, allowing us to fully understand what was the problem and giving us solutions that were worthwhile and helped to tame the issue until surgery. Come surgery time, she and staff had done a good job of explaining the procedure and ensuring family would be calm, allowing it to thankfully be a relatively smooth experience. Post-surgery care was also great, with regular checks to ensure the healing process was going well and advice on keeping any complications from occurring. Overall, a very positive experience with her as a doctor and she has helped make what is usually a rocky recovery as calm as possible. Thank you very much for your help, Dr. Markley!

Dr. Markley performed an umbilical hernia repair on our 9-year old daughter. Dr. Markley's knowledge, detailed explanation of surgical procedure, and warm interaction with our child were second to none. A doctor's office can sometimes be a cold and sterile environment, yet Dr. Markley and her staff delivered a dose of warmth to our family. Our daughter had no anxieties leading up to the surgery directly due to Dr. Markley's effortless soothing descriptions of the process. The office staff were genuinely pleasant, and we were seen at our scheduled time. In an age where the compassionate and caring doctor is seemingly disappearing, Dr. Markley is proof positive that they still exist.

The office staff is also very easy to work with and attentive to your needs. We recommend her to anyone that wants a great doctor that is also caring and patient. We couldn't be more pleased.
