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.

Follow-up for parotid gland surgery
Dr Elliot always puts me at ease yet is very upfront about the appointment and previous diagnosis. Never makes you feel hurried and answers all questions.

Throat Exam Review
I first met Dr. Elliott when my husband went to Dr.Elliot about his ear. I was impressed with his care he gave him and the thoroughness of the exam. That is why I decided to go to Dr. Elliott about my throat when I started having issues. I was again totally impressed with the care and thoroughness of the exam.I would highly recommend Dr. Elliot.I rarely give reviews but I made an exception because you will be impressed also.

First appointment
Before he even came into my room he had went through my chart back to 2021 and found a brain scan (from a different Dr for migraines) that had a clear view of my inner ear! Definitely showed he was interested! Great personality and very down to earth! Thanks again

My son needed immediate care and Dr. Elliot got him in quickly and then was able to schedule his surgery even more quickly. Dr. Elliot and his staff was very thorough and kind to the situation. The staff in Carmel were wonderful as well.

Excellent in every respect
Dr. Elliott adjusted his schedule so he can see me immediately due to my condition and to help alleviate my pain and discomfort. As always, he is very kind and cares about his patient. I’ve seen Dr. Elliott several times over the past 10-12 years. I know he is one of the best in the field.

Knowledgeable and Professional
As usual, Dr. Elliott is knowledgeable and professional. He asks pertinent questions, completes a thorough exam, and wastes no time when surgical interventions are needed. What started out with my son seeing him 13 years ago, has progressed to my entire family relying on Dr. Elliott for all of our ENT needs!

Dr. Elliott has performed two surgeries on me and one surgery on my spouse. I would never visit another ENT provider so long as Elliott is practicing. Dr. Elliott has a dry sense of humor but he is a fantastic doctor who is extremely knowledgeable about disease courses and recommending the most appropriate and effective treatments. He would not recommend something that 1) isn't necessary and 2) isn't beneficial to the patient. I absolutely trust him 100%. He and his staff truly care about each and every patient and go above and beyond for us. He transferred to a new organization recently but this is actually more convenient to my home.
