Adele El Kareh, MD, PHD, FACOG

She is the great doctor!!!

She took her time and was very thorough

I was with her for close to 30 years and I've always felt respected and important when I've been seen by her.

I've been Dr El Kareh's patient for 15 plus years! She's the ABSOLUTE VERY BEST doctor I've EVER HAD, and especially for WOMEN'S HEALTH! I adore her, I trust her implicitly, she's amazing! I'd never go anywhere else! She's exceptional in every way! Also, her Assistant Nyree is Exceptionally wonderful as well..!!!Thank you all...

She's the best, love Dr. El Kareh

Because she is the best and gave me time for all issues

Dr. El Kareh is an excellent provider of gyn care.

She was very rude, disrespectful, dismissed my opinions and self-advocacy, had me in the exam room waiting for almost an hour, was not easy and careful while performing gynecological exam, lacked compassion, gave me attitude because I stopped birth control, said I was ruining my body by not taking birth control, gave me attitude because I didn't want the HPV vaccine, and more. Worst medical experience of my LIFE. I left there in tears.

Very good highly trained Doc - caring helpful careful and Optum is lucky she still works with Optum-treat her better

So professional

She is one of the most intellectual, competent, and caring professionals I have had the pleasure of seeing for more than 20 years. As a medical provider myself, I recognize her excellence.

I found her demeaning and insulting. She repeated a few times, I know you're not coming back because you're a Natural Person. Just because I use homeopathic remedies where conventional medicine has not worked does not mean I don't value doctors. I found her dismissal of my previous OBG's advice and guidance disturbing. I asked questions she didn't bother answering. When I asked what to expect regarding cramping and bleeding for having a polyp removed, the answer was I can give you a shot of name of medicine I'd never heard of. I asked what that was and is there side effects? Answer being, it's just a huge dose of Ibuprofen, you take that, don't you? And when I turned down the option of having the polyp removed at the office visit, she said she was going to have another visit scheduled and I had better be prepared to have it removed that day. I do come to doctors to find out what may be wrong with me and learn the options to have things removed or left alone. But I do not appreciate having doctors insist that I will have procedures done without explaining things sufficiently to me. The final straw was that after I had repeatedly said I didn't want it done at the moment, she continued badgering me about it until I finally gave the reason that I had a long day at work tomorrow and didn't want to deal with whatever side effects there were, as I still had not been told how bad they might be. She asked, you don't skip work if you start your period, do you? Frankly lady, yes I do. Welcome to the 21st century where women have the freedom to skip work if their body needs it. Modern thinking about female cycles indicates that we don't have to power through life and not respect our bodies when they need rest. Definitely not coming back despite her scheduling a polyp removal. And definitely not recommending a provider who seems stuck in the prevalent thinking of 30 years ago. Already found another OBGYN with more modern thinking.

She is the best gynecologist I’ve ever had, great bed side manner, caring.

She's sharp and cares - a dying breed.

Very Thorough with exams. Pleasant and caring. She explains everything to you and answers all my questions.

Shes professional, caring, spends time, discusses all.options. shes great

She is very thorough; takes her time and listens to everything I say and answers all questions. She never rushes me. If not for Dr. El Kareh, I would leave Optum.

Fully Informed, thorough, listens carefully, follows up. Terrific doctor.

Exceptional clinician listened and prescribed according to latest research

Phenomenal doctor - she is worth every minute you may have to wait to see her. Always gives you her undivided attention.
