wow looking at all these reviews it i am in total agreement of what every one said its amazing that this lady is stil allowed to work in this office shes rude, loud, ruff, stand offish and doesnt make you feel comfortable at all ive been there for the last 5 years and nothing has changed . when a woman goes to a gyn for most women its a neccessary but difficult time because one has so many questions about their body etc and they're seeking knowledge from a trained understanding professional i must say dr halstead is far from professional so i took my research a step further and googled her boss dr.rainer because i couldnt understand for the life of me why tthis lady is still permitted to work there i googled him and to my not so suprise a host of complaints came so it makes perfect sense now this entire office is ghetto, tacky ,un professional and straight money hungry with no bedside manner and a ounce of care and empathy for their patients i think this is completly sad and horrendus . i just pray i find a good gyn that i can feel comfortable with

She is extremely rude, condescending, loud, abrasive, fast (I had to ask her if she was in a rush 30 seconds into my evaluation) unproffesional and physically rough during her examination. This will be the last time I make an appointment with Kelley Halstead. Her bed side manner is horrendous & I will be sure to file a complaint. Unfortunately I have to go back for lab results in 2 weeks...I will be sure to tell her about herself! She need not be in this profession!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

where do i start. She is always excessively late to appointments, even if you have the earliest in the morning. She does work Saturdays but wont accommodate pregnant women on that day. She is very rude. She told me that I was getting fat because I had gained 10 lbs by the 2nd trimester. Meanwhile, she is grossly overweight. I was in the ER twice and called her and never received a call back. I have since switched providers. Do not go to her she is inexperienced, rude and not caring at all.

Dr. Halstead is a very rude doctor. She don't give patient privacy, she seems very annoyed when you ask her a question. As a doctor she just wants to get paid. I was currently a patient with Dr. Rainer who deliver my son 14 years ago. I got shuffled to Dr. Halstead. She is always in a rush when she sees you.. Im truly going to make a formal complaint she only been delivering babies for six years and she needs some people skills training..

Dr. Halstead is extremely rude and unprofessional. On top of that she is extremely loud. Every time I'm at her office waiting in a room to be seen, I can hear her conversation with patients next door. She overbook all the time. You are expected to wait at least two hours before you are seen. She has no respect for your time. And she never apologize for keeping you waiting. In addition, she doesn't listen well, very condescending. REALLY CONSIDERING CHANGING TO A NEW DOCTOR AND YOU SHOULD TOO! It appears money is more important than patient care.

I waited an hour and a half and never even saw the doctor. Also, I never pay a copay for an annual exam, but they tried to charge me my $30 copay. Then they took an unnecessary sonogram that they'll bill me for--even though I walked out after an hour and a half wait! The wait is long, the staff is indifferent and unorganized and they try to perform unnecessary tests and procedures to bilk you and your insurance company.

Extremely rude, unprofessional, and I had a terrible first pregnancy experience with her. She cursed, spoke loudly about how she hates her job, and answered her phone all while I was in the midst giving birth. Please don't go to her!

I visited this office before and the doctor I saw is no longer there. I now have Dr. Halstead after some time. My first thought of her is that she is abrasive and condescending. However, she is knowledgeable. I don't think bedside manner is her strong suit. But, she does know her stuff. I will continue to go to her for now because knowledge is needed for my situation. Once things are back to normal with me I will voice my opinion but not before. I will allow GOD to move on her heart as she is dealing with me. We all have things that would make us not ourselves. She can be friendly but maybe because she is knowledgeable she feels that she can say and do what she likes. Only time will tell. I will wait it out.

She left me waiting for 90 minutes. She walked in popping her gum. Then she started complaining that she had a patient in the hospital that was taking to long to give birth so she said she was going to give her a c section! Then she laughed and said no I would only do that if I had a plane to catch! She is awful!

Average wait time is about 2 hours just to be seen by her for 5 minutes. She spends half of the already short amount of time discussing other patient's business Labor with her was a nightmare. She complained about me not informing her that I was going to the hosp and that she had another patient's baby to deliver. She even claimed she saw no contractions on my monitor. Sorry but if I'm in labor my main priority is GETTING to the hospital, not scrambling through my phone book to give you a call, the hospital will do that. During the labor she only checked me ONCE and I was kept in triage for 5 hours because I was told that there were no delivery rooms available. She almost refused to give me epidural at the end because of a mishap that happened the previous night(again another example of info she needs to keep to herself). When she did check me she claimed that I wont be giving birth for another 3 hrs - I gave birth 10 min later. Im not even following up with her for my 6 wk appt.
