Very knowledgeable and compassionate. Took his time and explained things so I could understand. Very satisfied with my first time visit and treatment plan!

He operated on my father, and left. Never came out to talk to the family at all. The surgery took longer than we were told and we never heard a word from the Dr. When the nurse called the Dr. he didn't answer. She left a message that the family was still waiting to hear from him. An hour later... still nothing.
About 3 months later had a follow up, still never saw the Dr.
The actual surgeon never even saw him at the follow up.

Dr.Gelven operated on my shoulder last Friday. He did a great job and explained everything to my wife in the waiting room.

I hurt my shoulder in a fall. I waited for awhile thinking it would get better but when it didn't I had a MRI done. That test showed a couple of small tears and bursitis along with a little arthritis. When I went to him for treatment I was in room for over 30 minutes waiting. When finally came in he sat down and looked at test for a matter of seconds. He then told me I had one very minimal tear, very minimal arthritis, and bursitis. Noticed my range of motion was bad and then just said getting a cortisone shot. That shot did not help me! That was several months ago and still hurting like crazy! I did complain to his nurse about my pain. I never want to go back to him again! Just like it was mentioned on here, he acts like a tear is no big deal and everything good. I bet if he had my pain he would be all over getting help to stop it.
