I have been with Dr Elkanich for approximately 5 years. He is the ultimate professional and has always made me feel my care is important to him. I would not want anyone else to touch my spine. He has continued to work with my spine with several procedures. I trust him completely and highly recommend him.

Dr Elkanich doesn't mess around he wants to help you get right to feeling better.. I had 4 lv decompression surgery and his surgical hands are superb. My pain is reduced 80% and the surgery scars are nicely placed (no Frankenstein) I also recently had a stimulator implanted once again top notch work!! If you want your issues fixed or at least move quicker see him none of the 5yrs of dragging on and trying things that the other Dr's make commission on. He's very easy to get along with and I'm comfortable being 100% honest with him with no judgment.. he's great in the office visit and fantastic in the surgery room 100% would refer him!
