Dr. Kellum and his staff are absolutely amazing. I was a bit nervous going into the procedure. Dr. Kellum was informative, patient, available, and thoughtful during the entire process. His staff made sure that not only my needs and concerns, but my husband’s were met throughout the entire process. Thank you, Dr. Kellum for being so amazing.

Phyllis M • May 24, 2026

It was my first treatment with Dr. Kellum. Since it was my first I had some more questions and he was very open and always asked me if I had any more. I was very glad that he encouraged me to think about my expectations and concerns. I didn’t know what to expect so other questions came to mind. The nurses and the front desk were very friendly and informative also.

Phyllis M • May 24, 2026

Dr. Kellum and everyone in his office are just beyond amazing. To say that I would recommend them would be an understatement. They are real humans with real hearts and real empathy. The medical business has become just that, a business. Not a place for healing, but a place for money. Not so with Dr. Kellum. I believe he truly sees people in front of him, not numbers, not dollar signs, but people. He’s a unicorn.

Susan H • May 16, 2026

This was my first infusion of stem cells so it will be a few months before I see improvement but the infusion was painless. The nurses & Dr. Kellum were very patient & explained everything to me & answered any questions I had. Definitely recommend him to anyone.

We appreciated the time Dr. Kellum took with us & the care & concern he exhibited in answering our questions. He was willing to do what he could to help us understand the process & what expectations we could have. He did not pressure us in any way but gave us time to talk at home & think about what we wanted before we commit to anything.
