He showed up at the delivery of my second child and did an okay job, but left the delivery of the placenta to a woman who was training. Delivery of the baby 20 minutes/delivery of placenta on pitosin with no pain meds,over an hour. Almost needed a D&C. Fast forward 9 years, my mom, grandma and aunt died of breast cancer so I asked about genetic counseling and mammos and his answer was it up to you but they were all post menopause. Another doctor pushed for the testing. Results BRCA+. Made an appt to discuss results, he showed up 45 minutes late from staff meeting and offered no advice.I asked him to order the tests recommended in the report.He did but was dismissive. Long story short, I already had bi-lateral breast cancer. I have not heard from his office.As far as they know, I could be dead. He is very uniformed if its not about delivery or robotic hysto. If you want a drive through delivery or birth control, he is your guy,otherwise go elsewhere.

Dr. Kalla delivered my second child and listened to me, rather than the nurse who was not listening to me, making it a much more pleasant experience. With my third child, he did not allow me to be induced early (which I wanted), and even though I was annoyed then, I am so thankful that he didn't give into my whining....my daughter was born perfect!! (although he didn't deliver her).

Dr Kalla, This Doctor almost caused me my life. I had an staph infection after my hysterectomy, half of the wound opened up. He did put me on antibiotics but after constant complaints he did not open up or drain the other side. This infection spread to my stomach and intestines. I underwent two major abdominal surgeries to save my life. This Doctor should not be treating anyone. Anyone looking at my wound new there was a severe problem including his nurse but he did nothing. I am lucky to be alive. He should suffer half of what I and my family suffered through.
