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.

Best doctor ever!
I've been seeing Dr. Ellington for 30 years. He has set the bar so high with his warm, compassionate, patient, bedside manner that none of my other Dr.s can begin to compare. Most Dr.s now make you feel like you're on an assembly line. You get 15 minutes and then you are chucked out of the room. They often don't give you a copy of your test results. Many go over them very briefly but don't explain anything other than you're doing good or bad. Often they recommend labs,scans,x-rays, etc but they don't make it clear if you're supposed to set them up or if they are going to have the testing centers call you. Dr. Ellington takes time with you during the examination, talking to you and reassuring you the entire time. He's got the demeanor of a southern gentleman with a droll sense of humor. He's definitely a Dr. who cares and everyone I know who goes to him loves him. I dread the day he retires. They just don't make 'em like him anymore.

Best Gynecologist
I have been going to Dr. Ellington for about 30 years and I dread the day he retires. He is professional, compassionate, knowledgeable and caring physician all the times. I am a retired RN and worked with Dr. Ellington at our local hospital. Medical professionals are very picky in choosing a physician, so it is a high recommendation!
