Dr. Gelfand made the experience of having a pin removed from my wrist very easy. He was friendly, helpful, and he set realistic expectations for my recovery.

This visit was for a broken finger. The doctor decided to wait and see if it heals itself.

Dr. Gelfand answered/addressed all of my questions/concerns appropriately. In the beginning of the appointment, he asked me my age (age deleted). Then later, when I described the types of activities that cause pain/discomfort he stated, "We are no longer a young athlete." This comment is not something people want to hear when they are trying to stay physically active.

because he understood what I needed help with and made a plan

the doctor came in and did not close the door behind him, which made me very uncomfortable and set the tone for the appointment being just a quick stop in his day. the entire appointment lasted less than ten mins

I very much appreciate the fact that Dr. Gelfand was willing to perform surgery the same day on which I sought his help/opinion apart from the _____.

The earliest surgery date available (2 months out) was later than I was hoping for, but I understand.

I got the impression Dr. Gelfand was an knowledgeable physician but I was forced to get information from him regarding my injury. He didn't volunteer much information.

the doctor and office staff was excellent. the one problem was that someone waiting in the waiting room was watching a movie on a tablet and the sound was blaring. I could not understand why no one on the office staff asked that person to turn it down. maybe they couldn't hear it but I don't see how that's possible.

Dr. Gelfand is my hand specialist. He answered all of my questions regarding pain in my hands and best treatment for the pain. He made recommendations to relieve the pain and left the decision to me as to what I wanted to do.

I feel like the review process was very rushed and due to my condition I wasn't at my clearest thinking, which caused me to miss essential points from the conversation with the doctor. Fortunately the in-app messaging service helped me fill the gap fairly effortlessly.

this doctor was very unprofessional and squeezed my broken hand as if he didn't understand that it was broken. and when I asked for something to help with the pain he treated me like I was a drug addict only seeking pain medicine. he made me feel bad and I would never like to see him again.

From the time I entered the ER dept. of Legacy Mt Hood Hospital, saw Dr. Gelfand, surgery, office visits, xrays, Physical therapy, and follow up visits, I have had very good experience. I could not ask for better treatment from all the teams. I would be recommend any of the facilities or Dr. Gelfand and team to anyone.

THis visit was to a specialist who was referred by my primary doctor. Dr. Gelfand was quick to diagnose and treat my hand problem.

This doctor was ill prepared for our visit. He did not have a copy of my MRI, even though when I called to make the appt, I was sure to ask them to obtain a copy of it. When I brought the MRI to his attention, he was flippant about it's results. He was rude and inconsiderate. He did not speak clearly, nor did he make eye contact. He did not address my concerns, rather he said the same thing over again.He asked the same questions 2 or more times, as though he could not retain the information or did not believe my answer. I am seeking another Dr for another opinion, as I do not trust him. I felt as though I were on a hidden camera show or stuck in the 1950's. Who treats people like that?

I was experiencing issues with pain post surgery. I was scheduled for a CT scan [details deleted to protect privacy]. I wasn't expecting to hear any results until the following week. Dr Gelfand personally called me about an hour after the scan was done. I appreciated that call so much. He is so very thoughtful and a very rare and caring physician.

Dr. Gelfand and staff couldn't have been better. I gave had lots of experiences with Drs. and staff and this one is above all that I have seen. I am from [location deleted] and the doctors office was kind enough to see me within 2 days of asking for an appt. Dr. Gelfand is a kind person with lots of empathy for his patients. took time to listen and access to what I needed. lastly he fit my personality. top kudos to him and his staff. thank you
