I don't know where to start without crying. On January 10, 2019, I was burning up with a fever and had the worse pain in my breast following surgery in August at a well known hospital in Arizona. I was at home in Newport Beach and asked a friend for a referral to a breast Dr. I called the Dr but it was after hours. The operator asked if I wanted to speak to the Dr "on call". I said I would. I just wanted to know if I could take Advil for whatever was causing me to be so sick and in pain. Dr Elliott returned my call immediately and he asked me several questions regarding my symptoms. He then told me to come to his office the next morning and to expect it to be a long day. I arrived at his office in extreme pain and met his front office gal, Chris, who was so empathetic and caring. She had me sit down and get off my feet. She asked me if I needed water but I had my own with me. Next I met Dr Elliott, who was so amazing. He examined me and immediately called several Drs while I was there in the exam room. He told me he set up appointments for an ultrasound and to walk across the hallway to the radiologist that specializes with breasts. Within 10 minutes I was having an ultrasound which detected fluid in my breast and aspirated 200 cc's of necrotic fluid which resulted in having surgery on my breasts. I ended up having MRSA, a 5 day hospital stay, 2 weeks of infusions and off work for 9 weeks. Dr Elliott was the key to finding out what was wrong with me. I can't say enough about this man. He was like the Angel that I needed who showed up in my life at the right time. He also sent me to an infectious disease Dr who determined the proper medications I should take throughout my treatments. Thank you to his staff, Chris and Tanya, for their compassion when I was feeling so low. Thank you to Dr Elliott for saving my life that day. I can never repay you. read more

Dr. Elliott is truly a remarkable surgeon and an awesome human being. I feel so blessed to have come his way. From the beginning to the end of a 6-months-long, two-phases procedure, he never seemed to be in a hurry and always made sure I understood everything at every appointment. Every day of my life is better because of him. Thank you is not nearly enough. His office staff, Kris and Terry are so wonderful, gentle and kind. These ladies multi-task and coordinate everything at ease and always with a smile on their face. I highly recommend Dr. Elliott and his team! read more

I had a cyst removed from my forehead, Dr Elliott did an exceptional job removing cyst and closing the flap. i cant even really see where he made the incision. I am so thankful for his expertise as a surgeon. he is so kind from the initial office meeting to surgery and then after. Dr. Elliot if you see this i cant thank you enough for what you did for me. P.S your staff was also great! Robert Barilla read more

My family has been a client of Dr Elliott for years and they would not go anywhere else. Most recently, my girlfriend went to see Dr Elliott to determine the best course of action with tightening her skin on her neck. Upon examination, Dr Elliott felt something that wasn't right and told her to have her primary physician check this immediately. Once her primary checked her neck, he was unable to feel anything but once she informed him that her plastic surgeon had felt something, he consulted with a ENT and sent her for a CT scan. Long story, short, what came back from the CT scan was a cyst that required immediate surgery. If it wasn't for Dr Elliott, she would have never known. If you are looking for a true professional with a great staff, Dr Elliott and team will not disappoint. read more

I want to start off by saying that I feel truly blessed having such a well experienced, detailed and amazing Doctor like Dr. Eugene Elliott as my Surgen. He did an amazing job on my reconstruction surgery after having a double Mastectomy. He even fixed a double bubble that I had in one of my breast from a prior surgery. Which I am extremely thankful for. Dr. Elliott is very detailed in what he does. And the nurses in the pre-op room assured me that I was in amazing hands. Which I already knew :) Also Chris is amazing!!!! she does whatever she can to help you with your appointment and every question you have. She's very carrying and professional. Love her!!!! Thank you Doctor Elliott and staff :) read more

Just a PERFECT overall experience for Breast Reduction! I can't speak highly enough about Dr. Elliott or his amazing compassionate staff. I was given Dr Elliott's name not only from a friend but also from my primary Dr. With both aligned I didn't have to look further for my breast reduction Dr~ and am SO GLAD I followed my gut and moved forward with using him. Dr Elliott was not only knowledgeable but also so kind. He listened to my concerns and assured me that he'd do his best. We had detailed discussions on the process he was going to use and everything was exactly as he explained it to me ~ NO SURPRISES! When surgery was completed he called daily to check on me and to ensure that I was comfortable; he even scheduled a last minute SUNDAY appointment for me (cutting his own "free time" for me). He and his staff also gave me all the tools AHEAD of time to be successful post surgery. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr Elliott for any breast reduction surgery that you may be considering. I wouldn't go to anyone else! read more

If you are reading this, you probably going through the same process that I went through in finding the right doctor. My process was simple, though very time consuming -- read up as much about surgery as possible, read every Yelp entry with 4+ stars for a surgeon in Orange County, consult with as many of them as possible (in my case, I met with no less than 8), ask as many questions and finally, choose someone and hope for the best. Dr. Elliott and his staff are incredibly kind, knowledgeable and professional. I recently had a procedure completed and the results continue to look better and better! You are unlikely to find a more masterful surgeon in Orange County. read more

Dr Elliott is a very skilled and compassionate plastic surgeon. He explains procedures, risks, and realistic outcomes in a pleasant, easy to understand manner. The day of my surgical procedure, I knew he was taking every precaution and I had an excellent outcome. His entire staff is cordial and caring. Phone calls and inquiries are returned promptly. I highly recommend Dr. Elliott! read more

Dr.Elliot and his staff are truly amazing. I had an issue from a prior surgery to remove a benign lump on my breast, this surgery was done by a completely unrelated surgeon not affiliated with Dr. Elliot or his office. I was referred to Dr. Elliot by my primary care Doctor for wound care. His staff showed more worry and compassion than one can imagine trying to make sure that I could get in to see him in a timely fashion. Chris may have been more worried about me than my own mother!! She is awesome!! Upon meeting Dr. Elliot you can instantly tell that this job is his passion. If I ever need a plastic surgeon, or if a family member or friend was looking for someone I absolutely would not hesitate to recommend Dr.Elliot. Thank you again Dr. Elliot and staff!! Cindy read more

I was referred to Dr. Elliott from my PCP for a Breast Reduction. From the first call to their office to set up my consultation, I could tell that they were very professional. Kris, who works at the front did any excellent job in explaining what I could expect in my first meeting with Dr. Elliott. When I met Dr. Elliott, he immediately made me feel comfortable by addressing all of my concerns, thoroughly explaining the procedure and even going over in great detail all the pros and possible cons of my treatment and recovery. At no point did I feel pressure to move forward. However, I felt that I was given enough information and felt comfortable in moving forward. Tanya, who took care of the scheduling of my surgery and payments was also very informative, explaining my options and working with my schedule. Fast forward to my surgery- Dr. Elliott and his staff did an excellent job in keeping in touch with me to make sure that any of my concerns were addressed prior to my procedure. Luckily, everything turned out just has Dr. Elliott has explained. I has a follow up with Dr. Elliot the day after surgery which was the first time I saw the results... and I could not be more impressed. The results actually exceeded my expectations. I am now a little over 2 months post surgery and am still very just as impressed by the service I received. I have had multiple follow ups since my surgery and on each visit I am still greeted in the same friendly manner by Kris, who I am now very comfortable with and still receive the same level of attention and concern by Dr. Elliott. I would definitely use Dr. Elliott's office again and would highly recommend him! read more

I first came to Dr. Elliott a little over 6 months ago after being jerked around by two previous surgeons. His knowledge and demeanor were a breath of fresh air. I came to get my severe diastasis recti repaired, a stomach muscle separation that resulted after I gave birth to a large baby over two years ago. He sketched an illustration of what a stomach without a separation looks like, what my stomach looks like, and how he would repair it. So informative! He worked with insurance so that I only had to pay for the tummy tuck portion of the surgery. All along the way, Terry worked with me and my HMO insurance to keep me informed about costs and where she was at with approvals. She went above and beyond to help with things like pre-op appointments when insurance was being a stinker. Then for the paperwork, of course, there is tons of paperwork to sign before a major surgery that requires an overnight stay in the hospital!! I began to get nervous, but my body needed to be repaired and I knew Dr. Elliott was more than capable. I am happy to report that at 12 weeks post-surgery, there were NO complications. My scar is healing beautifully and I still can't believe how much flatter my stomach is. I no longer look 5 months pregnant!! (Anyone with Diastasis can relate I'm sure!) I had started to believe after living with the distended gut for so long that it was my fault (thanks in part to one of the previously seen darling surgeons telling me this.) I believe that the combination of Dr. Elliott being a skilled surgeon AND the amazing aftercare were the one-two punch to a successful surgery. They didn't just get me in for surgery, they cared for me with specific instructions afterward as well. Thanks to Terry, Chris, Jenny and of course Dr. Elliott!! I won't hesitate to come back in the future! read more

I was a repeat patient but no more business from me!!! He and his staff (except for Chris) really don't care about you especially the girl that sits down with you and gives you the quote. I think her name was Tanya. She is lazy and wants you to do her job. I personally had to call the hospital to get something in writing regarding how much they were going to charge me for the lab. Isn't that her job? Instead she gave me the phone number to call because she said it wasn't her job. I have NEVER been to a doctor's office where I paid over $6,000 for a procedure that I had to do their job!!! I had a situation where he knew what to do to help me but was afraid if something happened I was going to blame him. I told him I would sign a waiver but he didn't want to instead he told me how to do it. read more

I had liposuction about 5 weeks ago and am absolutely satisfied. He is so kind and gentle and I am truly his masterpiece. I look and feel a lot healthier and contoured. His bedside manner and staff are fantastic!! After looking into 4 other surgeons to get some ideas I felt he was the most qualified. I recommend him to anyone that wants to keep up a healthy lifestyle change and feel great in a baiting suit or what we you need done. Thank you guys for a great experience . read more

Dr. Elliott & his staff are absolutely fantastic. He truly has the best front office staff I have ever dealt with at a doctor's office. Chris & Tania are incredibly nice, professional, organized, and they are so efficient with scheduling that I have never had to wait more than 5 minutes upon arrival. (Chris even showed up 30 minutes before they opened to accommodate my demanding schedule). They handled setting up all the paperwork, coordinating surgeries, and lab work between my PCP and Dermatologist which made the whole process run smoothly. I saw Dr. Elliott for reconstructive surgery on some skin cancer on my face and I couldn't be happier. He educated me on the procedure and gave me all the tools that I needed to make a confident decision about my own healthcare. Dr. Elliott was able to avoid a skin graft on the craters left behind from the cancer, and due to his phenomenal care I won't look like Frankenstein's wife this year for Halloween! Thank you, Dr. Elliott & office staff team for a sincerely pleasant experience! :) read more

Trust - I have been a patient of Dr. Elliott's for over 15 years and I recently decided to remove my breast implants. I had my original breast augmentation performed by Dr. Elliott 14 years ago. When I informed Dr. Elliott that I wanted to have them removed, he consulted with me about the procedure and what my breasts will look like after the surgery. It has been 7 months post surgery and I feel fantastic and look fantastic. He performed a breast lift and removal. I did not have a lot of scar tissue and the implants were in great condition after the removal. I attribute that to the original surgery performed by Dr. Elliott. My breasts look natural and I feel so much better in my clothing. I am petite and now I feel much more youthful and healthy. I can't thank Dr. Elliott enough and his wonderful staff for the care and concern they always give. This was one of the best decisions I have made for my health and body with absolutely no regrets. Thank you Dr. Elliott! read more

Dr. Elliott and his staff are friendly, great, and on time! I could sit and type about how I did all this research about this surgeon before my breast augmentation, but the truth is that I saw his beautiful work on my friend. What better way to rate a surgeon than to a have a personal friend display his "artwork." I am 4 week post-op and am very happy about my recovery and results so far. Dr. Elliott has great bed side manner and the girls on his staff are warm, friendly, and very well informed. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for breast augmentation. read more

This office is very efficient, never making us wait more than 5 minutes. Dr Elliott took the time to listen and answer all of our questions. Our experience and treatment with Dr. Elliott and his staff was exceptional due to the effort and professionalism put forth by this office. Thanks. read more

Unfortunately I called to get some information from his staff, and this review is based ONLY on his staff. And the girl I spoke to was so rude and I felt very uncomfortable, so why give them my business regarding my health? I have no doubt that Dr. Elliott is amazing from what I have heard but his staff are horrible. read more

Dr. Elliot is a possibly the most brilliant RECONSTRUCTIVE cosmetic surgeon in the US. But if you are looking for a surgeon to do a huge vanity project on your body and/or face, you may want to look elsewhere. He'll take your money and do a superb job on your basic buff and polish, but there will be no enthusiasm on his part. My sense is that his heart lies with burn victims, breast cancer victims, anyone who has ACCIDENTALLY become a cosmetic victim of our modern, industrial world. No tea and sympathy here for thickened, menopausal ladies. He's given new life to the lost and you'll get the impression (rightly so?) that your Lipo project is a bit of a toss off. Don't get me wrong, Dr. Elliot is a good man and a great surgeon, but he's also a bit of a crusader. So somehow your sub-cutaneous fat, sagging ass, tits and jowls will leave you feeling like a tedious whiner after consulting a cosmetic surgeon of this caliber. read more

From the first consultation visit, through my surgery and then the after care Dr. Elliott and his staff provided professional, prompt and what I would consider 5* service. I had wanted to get my breast augmentation done for many years and I could not have ended up happier. I am now a very natural appearing, improved version of myself which is exactly what I wanted. read more

Doctor only takes HMO plans, otherwise cash pay. Not good

Dr. Elliot did a fantastic job with skin grafting my ear, after a large skin cancer was removed. Also, after removing additional cancer from my forehead, he stitched it together perfectly!! Can't even see where the cut was! I highly recommend him to anyone needing skin cancer surgery! read more

Dr. Elliott and his staff are great, esp. Chris, his long-time nurse/assistant. Very professional yet warm, Dr. Elliott is very gentle and caring. My second surgery with him was set on a Friday, and even if he visited me at the hospital right after my surgery to make sure everything was okay before discharge, he also called me that night and made me go to his clinic the following day. At first, I got frightened as I thought something went wrong, esp. when I got to the clinic and realized that there was nobody else there but him. Then I found out that he really doesn't have clinics on Saturdays, but he just wanted to make sure that everything was okay with me past the 24 hours and away from professional hospital care. Really amazing concern! As for Chris, from my very first visit, she had always been very attentive to my needs. She helped me feel very comfortable and at ease... walked me through every step of the way, including completing and filing of Disability forms. With her ever-smiling face and gracious nature, she made everything seemed so easy and worry-free. And even away from the office, I would call, Chris would always have the answer. If not, she would promise to ask Dr. Elliott and get back to me right away.... and she would! What's more? I believe most everybody in Orange County know about Dr. Elliott. Aside from nurses in the pre-op confirming to me that I am in good hands as my set of doctors are the best, I got the same confirmation from friends in a local women's workout studio and some others who have either family or friends who also had an excellent experience with Dr. Elliott. read more

When I was researching the best plastic surgeon in the area, Dr. Elliott's name continually popped up. I was amazed and pleased to hear so many overwhelming, positive remarks from doctors, associates, and former patients. Everyone's opinion was the same..."He's an artist, his work is impeccable, and he does surgery correct the first time. His consultations are honest and from his heart. He advises you what he CAN do and if necessary, what you SHOULDN'T do. His bedside manner is kind, gentle, and soft-spoken. His entire office is fun, friendly, easy going, organized, efficient, and professional. I love a doctor's office that doesn't leave you sitting in the waiting room forever. This is one of them. Tonya is tremendously helpful with any billing questions you may have and is extremely well-versed with the insurance company chaos. Chris makes sure you have your paperwork properly filled out and never fails to remind you of your upcoming appointments. I just can't say enough of my wonderful experience. I can't think of any reason you could possibly be disappointed with Dr. Elliott! You will love him AND his work! read more

Dr. Elliott was highly recommended to me by my step mother who has worked in the plastic surgery industry for years. She said that Dr. Elliott was the best and that his work was always beautiful, and that I should go there to repair my diastasis recti (she never worked there). It took me two years after my initial consultation with him to finally be ready for the surgery as I was determined to heal it on my own. Turns out the more weight I lost, the more pronounced my stomach got. I finally decided to throw in the towel, and just get it done. Dr. Elliott and his staff were amazing to me, and the procedure went off without a hitch. It's not a fun procedure, but it was completely worth it. I no longer look like I'm pregnant, and I couldn't be happier. I'm 6 weeks post surgery, and still a little swollen, but my stomach looks great, and I am flooded with confidence...something I have not felt in quite a long time. I am so grateful for Dr. Elliott and his amazing staff, and will be forever. read more

Dr. Elliott was great. He was very reassuring. I had a tummy tuck and it came out great. His staff is friendly and very efficient. I wish I could give them 10 stars. read more

All I can say is I wish I had found Dr. Elliott many years ago but I am so grateful to have found him now and have had such an amazing experience with him and his great staff. Dr. Elliott is not only a gifted, artistic surgeon but he has an amazing attitude, he listens, and he is so informative, I just could not ask for more and I will be seeing Dr. Elliott for many, many years to come. As for his staff, top notch, what a team and they are all so great at what they do; it is very rare in today's culture to find such excellence in one office. If there is a wait to see Dr. Elliott, that is because he is so in demand and he is TRULY worth waiting for! read more

8 weeks ago I had surgery on my arms to reduce my creppy skin and the extra flapping skin all women seem to have no matter how thin we are. In addition I had lipo on my stomach at the same time. My results are awesome. My arms look like a teenagers and my stomach is as flat as one too. the scars on my arms are hardly noticeable and there are no scars on my stomach. He is great--a real artist in this area. and the staff is wonderful, especially Chris. read more

I am pleased and proud to write this review for Dr. Elliott regarding the wonderful care that he provided me during the removal of skin cancer on my face. Dr. Elliott is an amazing and extremely talented surgeon with wonderful bedside manner. He also has a really good sense of humor. It has been only two weeks since my surgery and there is no scar on my face. I am definitely a "FAN" of Dr. Elliott's and I have highly recommended him to my friends and family members. Thank you Dr. Elliott you are the best! A special thank you to Tanya and the other ladies in the office. They were a wonderful help and support during this stressful time. They helped walk me through the process in a very kind and caring way! I appreciate all of you! read more

Dr. Elliott is amazing. As soon as I met him I knew he was the doctor for me. He is so kind and honest and caring. He makes you feel like you have nothing to worry about. When I awoke from my surgery I was immediately ecstatic about the results. It was everything we talked about and nothing more and nothing less. He is a true genius. Chris and Tanya are also amazing. They are so compassionate and understanding and helpful. I recommend coming here for anything you need read more

Dr. Elliott and his staff are the best! Always professional yet warm and welcoming! From consultation, surgery, to followup I have nothing but positive things to say. The office always runs ontime, every question you have will be answered and you will never feel rushed. Dr. Elliott bedside manner makes you feel incrediably confortable in a sometimes uncomfortable situation. At the surgery center I was assured by several of the staff there I was in the "best hands with Dr. Elliott" and I beleive it! Great work, great reputation, professional, compasionate, friendly just a few words to describe Dr. Elliott, Chris, Tonya, and the rest of the staff! read more

Dr. Elliott and his staff are compassionate and communicate very well every step of the way. Highly recommended!!!

Dr.Elliott and his staff are so caring and professional. They always answer all your questions and make you feel very secure in going forward with your procedure. You do not need to feel anxious to ask any question. They are eager to help and reassure you. My experience with the office has always been a positive one.The follow up care postop was extrodinary. Dr.Elliott called me at home to check on me after the surgery. How many Doctor's still do that? It was amazing. Dr.Elliott is honest and will give you his true opinion. It is all about the patient and getting the very best outcome. His Nurse Chris is so friendly there to answer any question you might have as well. I would recommend this practice to my family and friends. Thank you Dr.Elliott for changing my life and making it so much brighter! read more
