I don’t understand why this office be so unorganized. The man been there for so many years you would think he would get more employees or expand his business. Also not LGBT friendly. Dr. Elfman and his staff always Misgender me all the time.

I was a patient of Dr. Elfman for a little over a year. My first experience was okay, he informed me I would need some fillings and I went back to get them done. I was a voluntary patient at the STCC dental hygiene program to assist students in patient count, and when I went for Xrays, they told me to consult my dentist as I had a cavity where I was having tooth pain - they also mentioned how most of the fillings he had done looked very poor. I made an appointment with Dr. Elfman to have this looked at, and from the get go he began the appointment with "If STCC finds something wrong, tell THEM to fix it instead of sending you to me." (they do not do fillings - they are students that do cleanings and xrays, which I informed him of) During this appointment, he numbed my gums and when he asked if it felt good, I said it wasn't quite numb yet, so he roughly gave a second injection. The next time, he didn't even ask and began the procedure. I could feel the drill and the pain was almost instant, so I started to make audible sounds of discomfort, and all he said was "I know, just stay still". Until I continued to show discomfort, he finally asked what "the issue" was, and I told him I could feel everything and the numbing agent did not work. He told me he was going to finish as he was almost done. I left with severe tooth pain and his parting comment was "Don't forget - next time STCC finds something, tell them not to send you to me". For a dental "professional", he is lacking a lot of professionalism. I will not be returning.
