Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

unfortunately he doesn't take new patients.
He has always been wonderful and knowing to me. I switched to him when my endo retired and never regretted it. The staff is always nice to me and Minerva is the best.

Yesterday, I was released from Valley Hospital. Dr. Kelman was one of the handful of very competent and professional health practitioners attending during my four-day stay. In the final analysis, his recommendations for medication dosages and dietary supplements saved the day, solving one of the most challenging issues. Thank you Dr. Kelman and your colleagues...great work!

Dr. Kelman treated my daughter in ICU at Valley Hospital. He is hands on and likes to make his own decisions. We were very happy with the care he provided. My daughter has kept him as her Endocrinologist. I would sincerely recommend him to everyone. He is wonderful!!!

Great Doctor, My 18 year-old daughter was recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Dr Kelman has been treating her from day 1. One week after her diagnosis she was across the country going to college. The only way I could possibly let her go was because Dr Kelman was checking her levels weekly and e mailing her any changes. A very Tech-Savy Doctor! He fought the insuranceCo. and got her on a pump and CGM less than 3 months after Dx. A absolute Must have for a college student. He is always aval
