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.

The Best Thoracic Surgeon in the U.S.A.
Dr. Ebright and his team are a powerful team. I love the way he and his team looks out for his clients. They pay attention to you and your body language to make sure that you are okay, I use to call Shantell & Lauren like every other day after my surgery and they always greeted me with warm words of encouragement. You gotta love him because he is a fanatics dr. and a very caring man. I would refer him to any and everyone if need be. Cancer is no joke so you are blessed when you have a great team working and caring for your well being.

Dr. Ebright is perhaps the finest medical professional I have had the pleasure of seeing. He is a straight shooter when he speaks, and he also listens to his patients. No question went unanswered, and no concern was trivialized. Ms. Lauren Drysdale in his office is top notch as well. What a great team.

Ebright is an arrogant surgeon who has little regaard for patient feelings Best to avoid. He has surrounded himself with a group of assisstants to protect him.

Dr. Ebright has that rare combination of brilliance, kind heartedness and a huge understanding of the human spirit. My husband had to have serious thoracic surgery a few weeks ago and Dr. Ebright took such good care of him. He was there post surgery and visited him frequently and alleviated his anxiety. The second that we met him at our initial consultation, we both derived such a positive feeling about him. The surgery was a success and my husband feels that he had the BEST surgeon ever to take care of him!!!!

I have been Dr. Ebright's patient for several years now and I recommend him highly. Extremely personable, caring Doctor which I think is unusual in a surgeon from past experience. He is focused, knowledgeable and very skilled surgeon. You can put your trust in this gentleman.

I recommend him highly and without reservation to anyone in need of thoracic medicine. He is the best!!!

I had surgery with Michael Ebright at Stamford Hospital 12/20/19. He was excellent and took his time to do the surgery. Michael is a kind, thoughtful & caring person. He explained everything to me so clearly and always answered my question in a way that was easy for me to understand. He is a rarity today in the medical world.I might add that the care at Stamford Hospital was the best OI have ever had at any hospital. I would highly recommend Michale and Stamford Hospital.
