Worst experience of my life. I'm worse now than before seeing him. He traumatized me severely refusing his help after another serious neck injury and I found him to be the most neglectful and uncaring doctor I've ever experienced in my life. Avoid him.

Overall Rating: 1.0 2023-04-12

I can’t recommend Dr Elder after 2 1/2 years as his patient. Had a surgery by him initially, but suffered a severe injury to my neck within that year. I called and was denied appointments, sent messages on portal and Dr Elder did not respond to one message the entire time I was his patient. One of the few times I talked to him was surprised he told me he read them all. I was suffering in horrible pain injured and it didn’t phase him. All support staff was extremely rude to me and denied me help. Avoid at all costs if you value your life.
