Dr. Elham Kellershabrokh, DO

My wife was beset with uncontrollable panic/anxiety attacks, for which we made 3 trips to Honor Health emergency/then the hospital within 2 weeks. None of the attending physicians could prescribe anything that provided more than about 8 hours of relief. On the third trip to the ER, Dr. K happened to visit. Her mother had a similar condition, and she prescribed a sedative. My wife's life has changed in almost an instant. Dr. K is a Godsend for our family.

I had the misfortune of meeting her while being evaluated after a drunk driver hit the car I was in. I had a laceration on my head that needed stitches. She was extremely rough to the point I had to jerk my head away and expressed the pain she was causing. She went right back to the same roughness and was extremely cold while speaking. I refused to let her touch me again and left with no stitches. Everyone else was lovely and professional.

We took our infant into the ER for deep suctioning as it was recommended by our pediatrician. When we arrived, Dr. Elham did not introduce herself and when she asked for the baby's history, she was overly critical about us having had our baby at a birthing center with midwives instead of an "actual physician" (her words). She proceeded to order every test under the sun despite our child being asymptomatic. We were admitted to the peds floor overnight for observation and every other medical professional we saw said he was totally healthy. We honestly think she was trying to teach us a lesson for not seeing "actual physicians" and told us our kid would die if we didn't stay for observation. She preyed on us as young parents by guilt tripping us and having the worst bedside manner. By far the worst experience we've had with a doctor.
