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'm so grateful for meeting Dr McElveen very professional and very emphatic with my personal case. I was able to schedule and have surgery done in a timely matter. Very satisfied with his care, very satisfied with the outcome after surgery and recovery. I'm free of pain and discomfort thanks to God and Dr McElveen. If you are looking for a GI surgeon, Dr McElveen is definitely the one... Thank you again Dr McElveen

Top notch surgeon
Dr. McElveen is the best doctor I have ever been to in my lifetime. He took his time and thoroughly went over my pathology results. He explained all my surgical options. Answered all my questions. I chose my surgical procedures and he agreed. The surgery was a complete success thanks to Dr. McElveen’s skills and wealth of knowledge and experience.

I can’t say enough good things about the care that both Dr. McElveen, and his nurse, Vicki, gave me. I hope I never have to have another surgery, but if I do, I will look forward to seeing them both again.

I met this amazing surgeon in Apopka ER. I was septic and don’t remember much, except a nurse saying you are so lucky that Dr. McElveen’s on call. He kept my children informed and they were very grateful.
