I saw Dr. Elenburg for a toe fungus and pain issue. At my first appointment, he came in right away, examined the area, scraped off some of the fungus, and prescribed medication to treat it.
At my follow-up appointment, I was left waiting in the exam room for over 45 minutes before Dr. Elenburg came in, without offering any apology for the delay. He reviewed my chart but appeared unsure about the treatment provided during my previous visit. The X-ray taken showed no clear issue, and he seemed uncertain about the next steps.
Dr. Elenburg informed me that he would refer me to another provider for additional X-rays, and that they would report back to him if they noticed anything. Beyond that, he was unable to explain the cause of my ongoing toe pain. I found it puzzling that he was ordering new X-rays rather than consulting the ones he had already taken during my visit. It's now been almost a month, and I have yet to be contacted by the referred office to schedule further imaging.
Unfortunately, I found Dr. Elenburg's bedside manner lacking. He avoided eye contact, appeared confused at times, and didn't offer even a basic gesture--like a smile--to put me at ease. He also used medical terminology without explaining it, which left me feeling more confused than reassured.
On a positive note, his staff was exceptionally kind, professional, and welcoming, which I appreciated. read more
