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 PERFECT doctor exists!! It is Dr. Elbaz & team
Dr. Elbaz has been beyond helpful! Dr. Elbaz and Dr. Kim have the best bedside manner I’ve ever experienced. Their compassion and genuine desire to help comes across from the first meeting. They make you feel safe and listened to about your pain. After a t-bone car accident, my insurance covered doctor visits, but after surpassing their unrealistic time limit, I wasn’t able to meet any doctors. That’s when I met Dr. Elbaz. He reassured me his job was to help make me feel better and to let the lawyers deal with the money. Immediately he got to work on how to help. Dr. Elbaz performed a discectomy on my lower back due to daily excruciating pain for over a year. I was unable to bend down to shave my legs in addition to having discomfort and difficulty standing and/or sitting. The recovery time took longer than anticipated, but after I recovered, I felt significantly less pain in my lower back. Although I experience pain all over, Dr. Elbaz has helped and continues to help me feel better.

As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh ahki. I am Linata Charles a patient at your clinic. Justin told me and my husband that you were no longer prescribing our medication and that we should look for another pain management doctor. I found a doctor by the name Dr. Daniel Honono but his office is asking for proof of treatment and a list of medications that my husband and I are currently taking. My husband just had shoulder surgery on June 8th and he needs his medication. I can be reached at (347)2303691 and you can fax me at (917)965-2171 Thank you sincerely, Mrs. Linata Charles

I been coming to this clinic for 3 years now. Dr. Elbaz is a great Doctor with many years of experience. He is very helpful. He doesn't rush you out of the office. He takes his time listening and explaining about the type of procedures that can be done to help ease the pain depending on your situation. Every patient is different but I can guarantee you if you suffer from back problems the way I do. He will figure out a way to help you. Everyone in the practice is very nic...

In my beginning I was afraid but the doctors and staff were so accommodating that for now at least I seem to have lost my fear of having injections. I have since recommended a family member as the attentiveness and ability to alleviate any unknown to ensure clarity for me as a patient was amazing. Sincerely, Ms. D. Georges
