Patient Reviews
Jan 07, 2023
WELL...I can understand some of the negative reviews. Dr. Van Eldik is a knowledgeable and good doctor....He is in no rush speaking with you and answers questions in an understandable easy manner....All the doc's on staff are excellent....I found the office staff to be rude. We're rating the doc, not the staff....But people should be advised not become what this staff feels is 'difficult' such as you might need to change an appointment or want questions answered, etc.......You could end up looking for a doc elsewhere...
