His office staff is very rude and do not respect that a patient is in pain. I would never see this doctor, if you are shopping for neurosurgeons. You will not be happy with his God complex!

But every day I feel grateful for the fact that the Elliot Lewis Center is in my area and that their unbelievable staff is in my corner. I've been a patient of Dr. Joshua Katz since I was first diagnosed with MS, and he's everything you want a doctor to be. He's one of the most intelligent people I know, but he's not afraid to say "I don't know" and to consult with colleagues and literature to get more information for you. As I write this, he's in Stockholm at the ECTRIMS congress to learn about the latest MS research and developments, and he's sharing updates with ELC patients on their Facebook page. He's hosted live online Q&As for patients, and it seems that whenever I email him with a question or concern, I have a response within an hour or two--even on weekends. And Dr. Katz is just one member of the team at the ELC! I've never met a patient of Dr. Ellen Lathi who isn't breathlessly praising her performance. I had my first appointment with Dr. Kenneth Gorson last week for intramuscular Botox injections, and I was so impressed by his ability to understand and address my movement issues. Their other staff members--from the reception desk to the infusion room--are so helpful and efficient that I actually enjoy days spent there hooked up to an IV. I'd be remiss not to mention the contributions of Jackson and Tiger, the very sweet ELC service dogs/mascots. I've met people who drive hours to get their treatment at the Elliot Lewis Center. If you make an appointment here I'm sure you'll see why!

The nurse proceeding on arguing with her telling her that wasn't she looking for a new neurologist, you haven't seen Chaves for a long time. The patient told her that this medication was important to her well being and Cheves needed a ride up why she wouldn't give it to her. like a miracle she went to her pharmacy and it was there. Talking to other patients I have learned that it's usually the nurses that are lacking not always the doctors and because you have to deal with the nurses you get sometimes rude ones and ones who think they're on top of the hill and might be just cause you just a little bit too much trouble. Unfortunately because of the nurse that patient has extinguished her relationship with Dr.Chaves.
