Primum non nocere. First, do no harm. This is a central principle in the practice of medicine. Physicians have a variety of medications, tests and procedures that can help patients, but these tools must be used appropriately. My job as a physician is to educate my patients about the risks and benefits of available treatments, and help them to make an informed decision about their care.

She’s rude and doesn’t know what she’s doing. Dr. Ellis told me nothing was wrong and gave me various diagnosis. She did a subpar hand assessment. I had to drive all the way to Henry Ford to actually get real care. 5 months after the injury I am in a cast and finally getting treatment.

Dr. Ellis is a very down to earth person. She was easy to talk to and she got right to the point. I would recommend her very highly!

Dr. Ellis and her team has done an excellent job from the beginning in fighting for me to have the thumb functionality I have today. I appreciated the honesty, frankness, and personal care I received from her team. Through my whole experience, I felt like they had my best interests in mind. They were honest and open with me every step of the way and presented all the available options along the way so I never felt in the dark or worried about what might happen next. I was treated as if I was a family member, and that's really all you can ask for. I am blessed beyond belief in my experience with Dr. Ellis.

Dr. Ellis and her staff are fantastic! I had a severe injury to my hand while using a saw, and managed to cut tendons and nerves. Dr. Ellis explained my injuries thoroughly and patched me up the very same day! The hand therapists were outstanding, and just 8 weeks after my accident, I was back to work!

I came to dr Ellis because she was listed as a dr that was affiliated with the hospital I work at. I found out later she was not but I will not go anywhere else! I would definitely recommend her for hand surgery and any other procedures related to the hand/wrist. I was so pleased with the outcome. Dr Ellis is great!
