Dr. Elkus first treated me after I had a lawnmower accident. The orthopedic Dr where I live kept telling me there was nothing wrong when I had a huge hematoma on my leg and the pain! I went in to see Dr. Elkus he admitted me and did emergency surgery! He saved my leg! He has also done two knee replacements.
Had knee replacement in june. was up active by august great Doctor, Great bed side manner. Cares for his patients. Pain was not near what people told me
Dr. Elkus is simply amazing! My Dad had a terrible fall, broke his femur and Dr. Elkus was the surgeon of rotation and for that I know we were Blessed with the Best! From the day we met Dr. Elkus, he has shown nothing but professionalism, knowledge, kindness and a superb bedside manner. He truthfully answers all of our questions and always gives us pros/cons and possibilities of outcomes. Dr. Elkus is not afraid to take time with his patients and that seems lost in the art of Medicine these days. I would not recommend any ot... read more
Dr. Elkus is my doctor, my husbands, one of my neighbors and three of my friend's doctor. I can not imagine going to anyone else. He is the kindest, caring doctor you can imagine, not to mention very intelligent in his field of medicine. I give him 10 stars!! His staff is wonderful also. I had knee injections and yes it was scary but I never felt any pain. I will be with him as long as he is in practice.
Dr Elkus has alway been friendly & caring. You couldn't ask for a better doctor. He was agressive in finding the cause of my problem and helped me. Since, I have taken family to him and referred many. I remember when he was in practice with his father, he was referred to me by my OB/GYN that thought very highly of him. Anytime I need an ortho he's the one I'm going to. Couldn't ask for a better doctor. His staff is fantastic as well and friendly.
As an orthopedic physical therapist of 33 years, I can without a doubt attest to the fact that Dr. Mark Elkus is top-notch. Not only does he provide excellent care, thorough examinations, and comprehensive patient education, he is compassionate and truly cares for his patients. I have not only treated his patients but have been one myself, and the excellent care is never ending. Dr. Elkus’s entire staff is always friendly and will go the extra mile to do what is needed.
Dr. Mark Elkus is highly respected in the medical community . Always treating his patients and staff with the utmost respect! I would trust Dr. Elkus with any of my family members and would recommend him to anyone time and time again. The attention to detail in and out of surgery really sets dr. Elkus about others. I would highly recommend using him ! You won’t regret it!
I learned he is not well received or respected by the medical community.This is the reason he works in a practice without other doctors/fellows/medical students/nurse practitioners/PAs, no one wants to work with him.He is rude, condescending, and disrespectful making it difficult to communicate with him about his patients.Other doctors, surgeons, nurses, physical therapists, and pharmacists avoid Dr. Elkus's patients at all costs for his blatant disregard of others in the medical community.
Dr. Elkus is rude and arrogant. He thinks all others are beneath him and is condescending to other colleagues and patients. Arrogant attitudes are not what St Vincent’s is supposed to represent.
