Jonathan Elias
MD, FAAP

Dr. Elias, a board certified pediatrician originally from New York, completed his training in 2009 and moved to South Carolina with his wife. He has been working in Georgetown as a pediatrician since moving here and has found great joy and fulfillment in serving the community. He has been here long enough to see his patients grow up to be driven, caring, compassionate and intelligent young people. His desire to become a pediatrician began when he was in high school caring for children in a pediatric rehabilitation hospital and brought him to where he is today. His interests lie in providing comprehensive and compassionate primary health care to the children of this community. His training in a high acuity children’s hospital has made him a very versatile primary care physician.

After receiving his bachelor’s degree from Cornell University, Dr. Elias completed a master’s degree in Natural Science from the University of Buffalo. He then completed his medical degree at Tulane University and completed his pediatric residency at Schneider Children’s Hospital. During his residency Dr. Elias spent 1 month in the Dominican Republic working in a clinic in the capital of San Jose and working on his Spanish. Being one of the few physicians in town to speak Spanish, he enjoys being able to give back to this community.

Since moving to South Carolina, Dr. Elias and his wife have welcomed two beautiful children; and when he is not whistling his way through the work day, he can be found enjoying the outdoors with them.
