"She was extremely unprofessional, dismissive, and rude"

"Some people seem to find her engaging, which she may be outside the office or if you don't question anything she says. For me, I asked about a test I had the previous year and she immediately she gets on the defensive. “What do you think I've been looking at on my computer?!” (Uh, I wouldn't know, as the screen is faced away from me and you're not discussing anything with me); “I've been doing this a long time, I know what I'm doing!” (WTH? I just asked if you had the results from last year). Really, she's unpleasant and too much on the defensive for me to believe she's anything more than average at what she does."

Doesn’t listen to patients concerns. More worried about how she only has 15 minutes for me because she has more patients. Well she was more concerned about eating and discussing her Christmas vacation to the Bahamas. Kept saying go to a specialist. Really disappointed with her.

The worse doctor ever. For your health I would advise you please don't use her. example my mom was at GW Hospital and got diagnosed with chronic lungs disease. She has been told not to do things like workout and try to rest and follow up with the lung specialist which we have the appointment for. she recently went to Dr. Elesho for a follow-up. During my moms appointment she told my mom to workout and bring her weight down. A LIGHT OFF IN MY HEAD. I realized that she did not read the notes of her GW Hospital emergency that was forwarded to her by the hospital. When I told her that the doctors of GW advised my mom not to workout or travel. She did not like that.. when I started questioning her how is that possible that you are asking her to workout her attitude changed. Instead of asking more questions who and why it was said.. she said I HAVE OTHER APPOINTMENTS. I don't know about you all but my mom is the world to me and so is her health. And to have a doctor like Dr. Elesho you are walking into a business not a doctors office. And since I spoke up now I am not allowed to see her or make appointment with PRIVIA doctors. They added appointments in the system and showed me as no show or cancelled appointments. I guess they needed a legal way for me to be not seen by her. Dr. Elesho is a business women not a doctor or aleast that is how she runs her office. So sad that in this day we have doctors like her who are more concern about money then your well being..
