Really? Cared for me as a person? Maybe I misunderstand the question because the busy doctors have too many patients to actually remember without cues, let alone CARE about. However, interaction with her is as warm, respectful and thoughtful as could be desired.

Dr. Kahlaf entered the room, and immediately made me feel comfortable about talking to her. She addressed my wife and I with respect, and genuine concern about my situation. Her initial questions about my background and health information were very thorough. After discussing my concerns and what I am hoping to accomplish with my treatment, she offered a few options of what she would recommend moving forward. After some discussion as to which option I would like to pursue, she walked me through the next steps to be taken. Lastly, we made an appointment to talk to a pain management specialist and for a follow-up appointment.

While my back was injured and I was experiencing major pain in June 2023, I was unable to get an appointment with a spine doctor until mid-August (2 months later). By then my pain had diminished and whatever was causing the pain couldn't be determined 2 months after experiencing this pain. I find this to be unacceptable but there is no other recourse.
Reviewed on Aug 7, 2023
Although I was in so much pain and lokong for an immediate solution, Dr. Khalaf was very kind and professional. She discussed my pain and based on the MRI saw that it was coming from a disk herniation in my Lumbar spine. She gave options of what medicine she thought would help me and ordered it at the Crile Pharmacy at CCF. She set me up with a virtual follow up visit in 3 weeks because she knew we traveled 7 hours to get here and didn't think we'd be able to do another long trip in just 43 short weeks. She was extremely sensitive to my pain level when examining me...and made me comfortable while she did her exam. Excellent physician. She couldn't give me a way to get rid of the low back and leg pain immediately,becaise sciatica pain can last a long long time. I'm hoping the medication she prescribed for me will give me some relief. If not I will communicate this to her in our next virtual visit.

Dr. Khalaf takes the time to listen to my concerns. What initially started as a "minor" DDD issue has started to affect my quality of life greatly.
