Dr. Ela is a neurologist, treating me for myasthenia gravis. He always ask questions related to the control of my condition and probes to determine if there are any side affects. He also asks about any changes to my general health and recommends seeing providers associated with any concerns.

Dr Ela is a wonderful, caring doctor.
Providence Patient
Dr Ela seemed to quickly rush to conclusions about a diagnosis despite me continually sharing symptoms contrary to the diagnosis he was trying to treat me for. None of his treatment plan has helped. Additionally, I had told him an ENT had already ruled out the condition he wanted to treat me for and he told me "I'm always right" and to go back to the ENT for treatment. This was the worst experience with a specialist I've had.
