Dr. Kelwala is truly an exceptional doctor. I felt welcomed by the doctor and his staff from my first appointment over 10 years ago. Dr. Kelwala goes above and beyond the call of duty to help his patients. The doctor came to the office to see patients while going through chemotherapy! That shows you how important his patients are to him! The doctor is always on time, compassionate, empathetic and easy to talk to which is so important with any doctor, but especially Psychiatrist! Dr. Kelwala has an amazing staff and I would highly recommend him to everyone!!

He helps patients be introspective, he's considerate, pays great attention to detail, is very observant, creative, a gentleman and very timely. He's considerate of a patient's time and privacy. He shares his thoughts and expertise with the public through blogs and other media. He's most definitely a credit to his profession and our community. I'd enthusiastically recommend him to anyone.

I have been seeing Dr. Kelwala for almost two years. I seeked him for his help, his words, his feedback and to just listen to me. He has helped me become a better person in so many ways. I see all these negative comments posted online about Dr. Kelwala and it only makes me think of how much people only think about themselves. People need to understand that the 30min/45min you have with him isn't about what "medication" you might get prescribed that day. It is about digging deep inside yourself, having something of substance when you " verbally purge" in his office. I was aggressive, standoffish amd had no trust during my first appointment. I immediately realized that my issues where my issues, not someone else's issues that is there to help. Think long term!!
