Dr. Gandharv Telhan, DO

Dr. Telhan always spends time to understand what's going on, and thoughtfully and accurately diagnoses underlying causes. He has a holistic approach to healing, taking into account circumstances outside my presenting symptoms. He is not just a doctor, but a support and goes the extra mile because he truly cares. When he left the practice close to me, I tried other doctors. The brevity of the appointments was astonishing, and I felt little more than a time slot and a paycheck. Discouraged, I researched where he was practicing. What used to be a 3-minute commute has now become 50, but he is worth every minute!

I have received excellent care from Dr. Telhan. His has excellent bedside manner and he was very empathic. His clinical approach is thorough and he is willing to answer any questions I asked.

Thus, rather than do what I had proposed (I who knows my medical history and body) which would mean that I was already back on my feet I am getting progressively more exhausted having muscle aches, severe fatigue, etc. with no end in sight. When I tried to do the test he required they could not get my blood and I felt so exhausted after waiting an hour for them to take it that while they dug around in my arm I gave up and told them I would find another place to go for help. It’s now been 14 days since my appointment. I’ve had great experiences with all the other doctors there.

I met with the doctor Telhan Gandharv and my experience became even more of a nightmare. Gandharv presented as labile, aloof, cold, disengaged, un-receptive to active listening, lacking in self-awareness, and with exaggerated affect and verbal expression that was incongruent with the situation and his professional role. I attempted to explain my health history and items that I needed addressed during the visit resulting in Gandharv became visibly agitated and disorganized. I suspect that he may be on the spectrum and certainly has some difficulty managing his anger, outbursts, and social engagement. He is very thrown when engaging in reciprocal dialogue that he does not initiate in a compartmentalized fashion. As a result of his inability to sustain fluid verbal engagement he became confrontational and rigid. It was at this point that he ordered me with a threatening verbal directive to stop speaking and he shifted the visit dynamic to a structured physical examination that I has spec
