Dr. Elsea is a wonderful physician. I wish only that he hadn't needed to cancel an appointment back in the fall, only a week or so before the actual visit (?), and could only then see me many months later. I've had the very same experience, a cancelled and long postponed appt, with my cardiologist only 10 days ago. We need more doctors in western MA!

I generally see my doctor only at the annual wellness appointment. I had a number of concerns, some of which could be addressed through referrals, and most of which could be addressed quickly and well by the doctor who has known me for ten years.

No complaints

I would like Dr. Elsea to have called about my blood tests and explained what a "high" result on one test means. It was vitamin D! I haven't been outside except to walk to the car and my vitamin (Sentry) doesn't seem to have a vitamin D outside of the normal range...

Dr. Elsea has always seemed genuinely interested and concerned for my health and progress. In addition, he is not only the finest PCP I've ever had, but the first and only one I feel comfortable talking to regarding my heath.

Yes, I'd like to say this doctor was very thorough, thoughtful, and was good at explaining things in a clear way. I really actually enjoyed the visit and I was grateful for that time.
