Dr. Kellman is a very caring doctor. Yes, you will have to wait a while to see him, however that is because he takes his time with all of his patients and doesn't rush through the visit. He makes you feel comfortable and confident in him. I love him!

I was charged a 'nominal' fee of $1,090 for a 'reduced' set of blood tests, only to find out that someone else was charged $875 a few weeks ago for the battery of tests. Please stay away from a Dr. who is dishonest & has no pity. There's a reason he needs a constant stream of new patients to dupe. The overall low ratings are there for a reason. Please save yourself from false hope & heartache. Stay away from Dr. Raphael Kellman.

 |  TOTAL SCAMMMM!!!  |  show details
by RAPHAEL KELLMAN, MD on Apr 22nd, 2013

First of all, I waited an hour after my scheduled appointment to see Dr. Kellman. Then, he sat with me for 5 mins and said they were going to run a series of test on me. I said that was fine. When I asked if they would call me with the results, he suggested I make an appointment instead (it was in an “oh maybe we should follow up” manner). The thing that greatly irritated me the most is the $875 bill after. No one said anything about paying when they took my insurance card and I sat there for a whole hour before being seen. They waited until everything was done before telling me they were out of network I had to pay; why not tell me before starting all the tests. THIS PLACE IS A TOTAL SCAMMMMMMMM!!!!! Keep clear away from there!!!!!!!!! I should have known after I read the other reviews stating they were a scam but I didn’t.

Had to wait a long time to see this doctor and supplements in his office are overpriced.

Dr. Kellman gave us hope on my child's recovery. My son has autism and was non-verbal since birth, he is 5 years old. After different bio-medical treatments we have seen so much improvement, and now he is verbal, this besides improvement in other areas. We can't thank Dr. Kellman enough. Yes, he doesn't take insurance but my son's care is priceless.

Completely overpriced, and complete obliviousness to the person's individual needs. He overmedicated me till i became extremely hyperthyroid, treated me for things that did nothing, and adamantly told me not to take psychoactive meds when i really need them. I'm a firm believer in holistic when possible, and western medicine when holistic is not working.

May 25th, 2011

Kellman is not well mentally and he charges a huge amount of money for exchange of NO knowledge - My first visit ran $900 yes $900, is that crazy? He ran many blood tests and when I asked him why I had a high CRP value he said "Good question, don't know". Meanwhile I had positive values for lupus tests which he never mentioned in the meeting. This doctor is missing something but certainly not his ability to charge your wallet through the roof. Don't go to him unless you want to throw your money down the drain. He gets 0 stars from 1 to 10. Nothing, he is a waste of time and money

This guy robbed me of thousands of dollars. Ordered tons of tests that my insurance didn't cover, and then didn't even call to follow up with the results. For $375 for a visit, I would expect a lot more. I am a big believer in holistic medicine, but please don't waste your money on this guy. He is stealing from his patients.

Dr. Kellman is an excellent diagnostician. He is caring and is able to find solutions for some of the most complicated problems. When he is not able to do this, he will also let you know and then try again. If he took insurance I would gladly refer him to others. The Office Staff and new environment are excellent.

by Lynette Hance on Jul 28th, 2009

I had been getting worse over several years until finally I was unable to raise myself out of bed anymore. My doctor(s) just stopped looking for an answer since my blood tests were normal. I lost my job, and had to take my 2 kids and move in with my parents. Dr. Kellman tested my thyroid with an older test that was used before the simpler blood test that is used today. I had an underactive thyroid for which Dr. Kellman prescribed both T3 and T4. He also administered intraveneous nutrients. After a couple weeks I was feeling much better and after a month I was able to get my life back on track. I don't know what kind of life I would have now if I hadn't found Dr. Kellman.

Once an appointment is made you must add at least 1/2 hour to your waiting time.
