Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best of the best. Caring, thoughtful, knowledgeable, current, present, great listener. Twenty two years of excellent care.

Checked out, more focused on professional organizations. Despite being a "Top Doctor" we were very disappointed with Dr. Elfstrand. She didn't seem all that interested in practicing medicine and was actually not very good at answering basic questions. I wish we could say she was knowledgeable but it just wasn't the case. My guess is she stops practicing medicine and joins various Boards, committees, etc. (or retires).

Dr. Elfstrand is incredible. After I had my first, she came to visit me before being discharged and she warned me of post partum pre eclampsia, something very few doctors even know about. I had high bp prior to pregnancy, but was able to stop mediation during pregnancy-which again was due to her expertise in how I would react. I resumed my bp meds after birth, but within 24 hours my bp skyrocketed and I was readmitted for another three days. If she had not warned me, I wouldn’t have been checking my bp and could have ended up with a seizure and other complications. With my second pregnancy she had me on baby aspirin as a preventative and had no complications. I really value her honesty, her expertise, her genuine care, her dedication and that she stays up to date on the sciences. She is very busy, rightfully so, so it can be difficult to see her. However, she will try her best to get you in if you communicate directly with her. In addition, the Plymouth staff are terrific. So warm and

As a first-time mom, I started seeing Dr. Elfstrand as soon as I found out I was pregnant. She was absolutely amazing to work with each step of the way; she is incredibly smart and navigated my delivery impeccably. My post-pardum care was very well-handled, too! She made it a priority to see me ASAP, same-day in some instances. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my future babies and OBGYN needs. She is the best of the best.
