I would recommend Dana Elborno as ‘the’ premier choice for women’s health. She was knowledgeable around every step; and very calm and calming to our 14yo daughter who was scheduled for her first surgery. Her bedside manner is unbeatable and she conducted a surgery flawlessly… in far less time than what was allotted. With zero negative or unanticipated side effects post-procedure. We were very lucky to have her as our daughter’s provider.

This was my first appointment with Dr. Elborno and I was very impressed with her. I am physically handicapped and gynecological exams aren’t the easiest for me, she was supportive, helpful and gentle. She also informed me of what she was doing and things she noticed while examining me. She asked me multiple times if I had any questions. She was very knowledgeable and thorough. More doctors need to be like Dr. Elborno!!
