This doctor was filling in for my primary care. Doctor Who was out on leave. I really felt that this doctor was excellent.

First visit. Was able to get in quickly and was very impressed with the Dr and care team.

He is genuinely concerned about my health

I am satisfied with the care n treatment I received.

Dr. Elpedes is very welcoming and I'm comfortable speaking with him.

All good!

He did not study my health history and he did not know about my health. He was very nice and mostly he talked about how he treat his patients than letting me to say about myself. Maybe I am wrong, it was only my opinion. I am sure a lot of patients like him.

Dr. Elpedes is probably the best Dr. I have seen in a very long time. He took time with me and made me feel like he really cared about my health. So happy he is with Providence now where he can really care for his patients the right way.

No bad experiences, very pleased.

My appointment was at 4:00.1 arrived at 3:45. I got in his office at 4:17 and he told me he had 1 minute to see me because he had more appointments.I lake him but his time management is lacking

Dr Elpedes was a new doctor for me. He had reviewed my records before he came into the room and we had a nice discussion. He is very personable and seems very knowledgeable. I thoroughly enjoyed the visit and will feel very comfortable in his care moving forward. His staff was also very nice and very professional and seemed to enjoy their jobs.

The doctor did a lab test even though the call center had messed up and not scheduled me for it. I appreciate this as I didn't want to make another appointment and come back. The call center even had me going to the wrong address. The doctor was extremely patient and fit me in. He was very thorough and answered all my questions. I appreciate his help.

Dr. Elpedes was excellent. I had never seen him before, however he was easy to communicate with, knowledgeable and patient. I liked him very much.

As my primary doctor Is on leave until October [Date] 2024, Dr.Elpedes saw me, about the sciatica pain that I was having for a few days. I told him what I was taking and what I was doing and he showed me an exercise, to help relieve the pain, and told me I was treating it correctly with heat and Tylenol. He was very kind to write notes for me on what we went over before I left and it was printed out on my exit form. He listened to me and actually drew a picture of the sciatic nerve. He was very informative and I left knowing what to do to relieve the pain.

My experience was great.

Very caring and well informed doctor!

Dr.Elpedes is a really good doctor and I'm very fortunate to have him as a primary care physician for our family

My primary care physician is retiring & this was an introductory meeting. I was very impressed with Dr Elpedis' manner, knowledge & caring & he is now my primary care physician. I am also impressed with the Providence support structure from its people to the online systems.

Very happy to see that my dr cares like if I was a member of his family

Dr took time and was very thorough with my medicine questions

So nice and knowledgeable

Everything seems to be running smoothly, in-house labs is exceptional, coordination between providers and pharmacy seems excellent. I don't feel as if I am on a conveyer belt.

Dr Elpedes is very professional in his treatment of our son.

My previous provider, Roxanne Stallworth left the practice and Dr. Elpedes was one she recommended. This was my first meeting with him. It can be hard to start with a new physician, but he was knowledgeable, kind, and attentive.

I was very pleased with my appointment. My doctor used to work at an urgent care and when they close down the urgent care nobody contacted us to tell us where our new doctor went. I was able to Google his name and find him. I am so glad that he is with Providence health Care. My experience with this group was extremely favorable. They are my new go-to in healthcare.

I thought my experience was quick and to the point I did not have to wait in wating room . I will lookl forward to my next visit

All good

Dr. Is very attentive along with his medical assistant they both spent time fixing my new insurance issue and messaged me right away when the referrals were approved.

Very satisfied to continue with Dr. Elpedes, who has been my primary care provider for the past 16 years.

Excellent care and follow up.

Am a new patient and Dr did not spend enough time getting to know me. Kept saying that he was running late and could only address existing prescriptions that needed to be refilled. Will give doctor another chance before finding someone else who doesn't have to rush to get through my appointment. Schedule longer appointment times for new patients.

Didnt have to wait long and pretty friendly
