I always feel like I'm very well taken care of. I just thought that Dr. Elsass seemed a little rushed when I was in there on Wednesday, but that doesn't mean that I don't feel like I got good care. It just seemed like she was a little rushed more than usual. That's all.

Dr Elsass is a good doctor, but has ZERO bedside manner. It is difficult to ask a question, whether through the portal or in person. She is very very abrupt and always seems to be in a hurry. It's unfortunate.

Dr. Elsass was personable and courteous and she was professional in her discussion of the interconnected issues surrounding selecting or changing medications used with strokes and seizures. This approach gave us confidence since she she made some prescription changes, and she explained how she expected these changes to be an improvement and what to watch for as an indicator of a problem

Dr. Elsass was very good and very professional in her help for me and instructed me on what I need to do and continue to do so that my health would continue to improve and be well stable. And she's just a good doctor and I appreciate going to her and I've been seeing her for some time and I intend to continue seeing her as long as she's in practice.

The best part of my visit is that Carol, Dr. Elsass' assistant helped me find my car. I always use valet parking, and it was closed. I forgot which floor I had parked on, because the elevators are so confusing in the Witcher St building. I will be taking a gift for her to my next checkup. The folks in reception could not be nicer, or more helpful and caring.
