“Really pleased with my experience with Dr. Elackattu. I was seen right when my appointment time stated and I felt like he took the time to address my concerns, answer my questions, and direct me towards the next step. Very friendly demeanor and clean office. The only downside was the wait time for an appointment but I know that’s outside of his control. ”

Great ear dr. Thank you!
Verified patient
Dr was so informative, professional and friendly. He was able to diagnose my issues right away, his knowledge is vast! He didn't rush through the appointment and made me feel he had time to properly diagnose the issues. He asked if I had any more questions after we were done that suggested he had more time, even if he didn't. In today's world with Doctors needing to meet patient quota and rush through your appointment time, this doctor did not make you feel that way. 2 thumbs up for his knowledge and presence!!!
I really liked Dr. Elackattu! He was friendly, clear in his explanations, and developed a clear plan to help deal with my issue.
