Patient Reviews
Oct 31, 2023
I have been seeing Dr. Elia since he was at Peachwood Medical, back in 2008. He was my children's doctor as they grew up, and I continue to see him. He is the most caring, thorough doctor I've ever had. He asks the important questions and always listens attentively. He's been an important part of my family's and my health over the years and I highly recommend him.
