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. Ellis has great bedside manner & is a good listener. When he heard about a particular health situation, he made a note to address this when he does the procedure. I highly recommend him!

Easy going and listens
I have been going to Dr Ellis for over 20 years. He explains things in a way that I could understand them. He is not pushy about getting a patience to get something done but will explain in detail what will happen if it isn’t done and leave it up to the patience. He is very nice and easy going.

Dr. Ellis changed my life.
You know a Dr. made an impact in your life when you leave a review for something that happened 25 years ago. Dr. Ellis was able to diagnose my acute stomach issues and within 72 hours of seeing him set me up for Nissan Surgery to repair a chronic Hiatal Hernia. Post surgery I got my life back. Prior to seeing him, everyday was filled with pain and suffering. Dr. Ellis is an amazing GI Dr. Thank you Dr. Ellis, time has not dulled my gratitude.

Excellent Doctor!
The staff were welcoming the minute I entered the office and Dr. Ellis was his usual fantastic self. I’ve been seeing Dr. Ellis for many years and getting a colonoscopy and endoscopy are just not my favorite things to do, but Dr Ellis always reminds me how life saving this can be and puts me at ease. He cares about his patients and the staff reflect that as well! Wonderful doctor, wonderful staff and I am grateful!

Love this place…
From the moment I walked in, everyone was really nice, from the front desk, nurse and scheduling, they were super nice. I have been going to Dr.Ellis for a few years now and he is the best. Very personable and funny too. He puts you at ease. Wouldn’t trade him for another Dr.

Excellent Physician
Dr. Ellis has been my doctor for many years. While I have had only a few office visits with him they have always been very thorough and forthcoming. He answers all questions clearly and offers direct solutions to any problems. I have always been very satisfied with the regular procedures which he has performed on me. I would highly recommend Dr. Ken Ellis.
