"Dr. Elariny is a young man who at first sight is well Young! he's one of those genius types who entered medschool in his teens. My first impression was one of wariness... It did change over time. as I listened to his seminars and talked to some of his post op patients and other staff members I grew to respect and ultimatly put my l;ife in his capable skilled hands.
I only know 2 of the staff well enough to mention them. Nancy who is the organizational pre-op lady. She is tough. She is a very nice lady who won't take crap from anyone and she will push and crab at you to do what you need to do. She's like a mother-in-law that you hate at first and then relaize she was doing it all out of love. She kicked my ass into gear on the pre-op testing and getting my diet histroy done for the insurance.
Jennifer is the other staff member I know... she's the nutrionist/dietician I've not dealt with her much more then at the first meeting. I'll be dealing a lot more with her in the aftercare portion of the care.
I would say the thing I like least about Elariny is that he takes on a LOT of patients and doesn't always take the time to get to know them one on one. I'm a 25 yr old male with no histroy of colon issues and he issued a colonscopy test to be done preop which requires a day before of cleansing out the system with a bowel cleansing regiment. he then saw me in th OR the next day for the test I was also getting an upper GI done and he cancelled the colonoscopy after he saw how old I was!!! he put me thru a day of liquid Sh*t for nothing. If he'd known me better he wouldnt have done that. "
