Ratings for Dr. Emmett Elves
He was a fabulous doctor who always showed care and concern for my kids. I have never felt that anything he did was out of line. He is extremely knowledgeable. He knows his stuff. He became a doctor when things were a lot different than they are now. I’ve had tons of doctors touch me without gloves. It’s not that they are getting anything sexual from it. Geez.

I saw Dr. Elves a number of years ago regarding episodes I had been having that were very similar to seizure activity. It's as though everything we said to him went in one ear and out the other. He brushed off my concerns, and my mothers' pleads for additional testing. He refused to give us referrals for an EEG, an MRI, and said it wasn't necessary for me to see a neurologist. He continued on to misdiagnose me with abdominal migraines, his only proof for this was saying "My wife has them all the time!" Years later I was diagnosed with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, and I frequently seize in my sleep. Had I gotten proper care from a compassionate doctor, maybe I could have avoided my biggest seizure where I lost my pulse for 15 seconds in front of my whole family and was rushed to the ER in an ambulance. Dr. Elves, I doubt you're reading this, but if you are, please do better for the sake of others.

For the people saying he has a narrow mind . I find Dr.Eleves is very honest and well researched doctor. He is up to date on everything new that is happening in the medical field. He is very honest and to the point a lot of people can't take that but I find it very calming knowing that the doctor is telling the truth !

I just saw the below comments about sexual assaults when I was searching out to see if others have had a similar experience with Dr. Elves that I had as a child in the 80s. It sounds like I wasn’t the only one. I am thankful for people being open about these experiences now.

Beyond thankful to have Dr. Elves as my childrens pediatrician. He is knowledgeable and gets straight to the point. At the age of two my daughter developed medical issues out of the blue and after taking her to see Dr. Elves she was back to her regular self in a week! When our youngest wasn't eating he knew right away we were instructed to put her on the wrong formula by our family doctor and she began to gain weight as soon as we switched her to the one he recommended. He is the ONE doctor we have seen that was willing to sit with us and actually discuss the covid vaccine for our 8 year old and not just roll their eyes at us and tell us we were crazy for not already having her vaccinated. It will be a sad day when Dr. Elves to retire and our community looses this wonderful doctor!

This doctor has as been in practice for ice 40 years, and has a VERY narrow mind! Thinks he's good enough to be evaluating for psychological problems, yet totally changed his words to not only parents, but judges in family court! DO NOT go to him, as he has been there too long and needs to go!

I saw the comment below from 2018 about being sexually assaulted by Dr. Elves and wanted to mention I had a similar experience. I was a patient of his as a child and was the target of inappropriate sexual behavior and comments until the age of 13 when I refused to see him ever again. I didn't have the vocabulary to explain to my parents what was happening. I felt violated and have never been comfortable in a medical setting or around medical professionals since. Please be cautious and protect your children.

This guy did the same thing to me he also choked me and I struggled for air as my mother just watched elves I hope you see this you nasty pos maybe you’ll remember me from my mother name being Natashya Robin I was 6 years old I remember every bit of it you thought you could lay hands just cause I was a kid and took a bike that wasn’t mine. Not to mention touching me at 11 seems like you’ll have a lot of people speaking out now. I hope you get what you deserve I’m happy my child’s mother switched doctors before my son became a victim to your garbage ways.
