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. Elkin is the best doctor I know personally. Not only because of his outstanding expertise, but also his genuine kindness and exceptional personal care toward patients. He takes care our family's health, and pointed us to the right direction for treatments all the time. Dr. Elkin makes a positive difference in our life, our appreciation is beyond words... We truly have deep respect and trust in him, and are very fortunate to be his patients. His medical team is most helpful and professional.
