"Dr Ellsworth is great!! He fixed my current, past, and potential future issues with manageable pain. His bed side manner is wonderful! He really cares. He listened to me and considers my suggestions. I have told a few people who have asked where I went to get my procedures done, and I will continue to tell others. I’m very optimistic about my continued healing so I can get back to the life I had before. Thank you Dr Ellsworth you are amazing with your skills and expertise!"

"Dr Ellsworth continues to be my best doctor. He is professional and friendly, easy to talk with,

and a good listener. He fully answers all of my questions and explains his recommendations. I am confident that my upcoming shoulder surgery will improve my wellbeing."

Sharon Allard

"Twice now I feel that I was treated with respect and that Dr. Ellsworth conducted a through review, and exam. When he explains what is going on, he does so in a manner that one can understand. He will make recommendation and let you decide just how far you want to go with it. Hopefully my issue resolves, but if a different one arises, I'll definitely see Dr. Ellsworth"

Larry Malach

"I suffered a rare injury, complete pectoralis major tear (from bone), this last May and Dr. Ellsworth performed the surgery which placed an anchor on my humerus and reattached the tendon to the anchor. Not only did he do a fantastic job with the procedure, which left me with a clean minimal scar, he also understood the urgency of doing the operation as those suffering this injury should have reattachment within two weeks of the initial injury."
