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.

Great experience always!
Many have commented about Dr. Elia's bedside manner and it is true that he exceeds my expectations but more importantly, I have a high level of confidence regarding the treatments I have received and his level of competency. This is why I will continue going to him.In addition, the staff is always helpful and professional.

Dr. Elia is the absolute BEST orthopedic specialist in the Philadelphia surrounding area. I have gone to him a few times with horrible pain in both knees and when I say that he gave me my life back, believe every word! In addition to being the best in his field, he is also very nice, patient, and really cares about how his patients are treated. I have been going to Dr. Elia for several years now and always recommend him to others.
