Dr. Kamelhar was attentive, excellent "bed side manner", thorough in gathering pertinent information and requesting me to provide additional information from other physicians I have seen. He did not jump to a "quickie" diagnosis as he was in the information gathering stage. I appreciated his fact gathering approach and open mind.

The wait time was incredibly long but from the other reviews that I read, I knew what to expect in that sense. However, I also read from other reviews that regardless of the wait, he was very good in terms of explaining what I might have and a very thorough doctor and that is completely true. Most other doctors are quick to write you a prescription, push drugs on you, get your money, and get you out the door but Dr. Kamelhar is definitely not one of those doctors. I would recommend Dr. Kamelhar to anyone that wants to feel confident in their doctor...and who doesn't want to feel that?

I was extremely happy with my experience with Dr. Kamelhar. My appointment started right on time. More importantly, Dr. Kamelhar spent a considerable amount of time with me. He's knowledgeable, friendly and has a great sense of humor. I kind of wish he was my primary care physician.
