This was my first visit with Dr. Elman. The staff was very friendly. I had an x-ray done of my knee and Jasmine was professional and friendly, she explained everything she was doing and why. Jasmine was genuinely concerned about my knee and said to let her know if I was uncomfortable in any way. I have never had anyone ever who performed x-rays on me ever explain things to me I was extremely impressed with the care she gave. I saw the doctor within 10 minutes after the x-ray he listened to my complaint, did an exam of my knee and took his time to explain what he saw in the x-ray and the course of treatment to be taken. He showed genuine concern and care. I didn’t feel rushed and I felt heard. I would highly recommend him and his office.

I got a very quick and timely appointment. The doctor was highly professional and gave me choices in treatment. His recommendation on new technology cast21 was perfect. Thank you, Dr.Elman. I am ready to drive over an hour in case I have any other injuries or problems.

I saw Dr Elman for knee pain. I was very impressed by the doctor. The doctor explained things in a professional manner and let me know what my options were without leaving me wondering where I stood. I will have the pleasure to see the doctor again for a follow up and I know I am in good hands.

I had seen Dr Elman years ago and decided to schedule a visit for a problem with my knee. I was shocked to be offered an appointment for the following morning. After X-rays, he explained the possible causes and suggested an MRI to determine the issue. The necessary paperwork was sent to my insurance provider and I was able to have the MRI mid afternoon on the same day. Absolutely amazing! I figured I’d have to wait weeks for an appointment and months for an MRI. I can’t recommend this Doctor highly enough. So far the experience has been incredible.

I live Dr Elman, but on 8/25 I made a visit just to find out I was at the wrong doctor. Need to see someone about my spine? A lot wasted time and a $50 copay. Maybe the person taking the appointments should ask the patient what exactly the visit is for to avoid these problems.
