On Sept 12 and 14th 2023 I had surgery to remove a pituitary tumor. Dr Kelly rebuilt my entire inside of my nose. The surgery was incredibly complex and took two times. The correction of my deviated septum was unbelievable. I could breathe normally and clearly for the first time in 35 years. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Kelly and his very caring staff. Thank you very much.

I have been a patient of Dr. Kelley’s and his staff to treat a pituitary tumor. To this day, I continue to receive superb medical treatment and ample time with Dr. Kelley, Carolyn, and Stacey. The entire team has provided excellent medical care, superb bedside manner, and genuine compassion in regards to my quality of life – their level of medical care has remained beyond expectations. Dr. Kelley, Carolyn, and Stacey have truly demonstrated the art of treating their patients with true compassion while maintaining superb bedside manner, professionalism, and follow-up skills; they never give up on patients with complicated health issues such as myself. Dr. Kelley, Carolyn, and Stacey have addressed all my concerns and questions that put me at ease prior to surgery and after surgery. This truly has meant a lot to both my husband and me. It was very evident from the moment I met Dr. Kelley, Carolyn, and Stacey as a new patient they treat patients as individuals and do everything possible to improve their patients’ quality of life. I will forever be grateful and thankful to Dr. Kelley, Carolyn, and Stacey!

Dr. Kelley did an amazing job in correcting a very complex deviated septum, which I had suffered with for several years. His office staff were very patient, professional & communicative. Nursing staff at the surgery center took great care of me during pre & post-surgery. Recovery was surprisingly smooth with minimal bruising. I'm finally able to breathe properly & get restorative sleep. I really appreciate the work of Dr. Kelley & his staff to make this happen.

I visited a couple of plastic surgeons for a rhinoplasty before meeting Dr. Kelly. Most were unsure of how to fix the problems I had with my nose. Dr. Kelly, however, immediately recognized my problems and was able to fix them perfectly. I had no bruising and my swelling was very minimal. I was able to eat normally the day after surgery and I felt perfectly fine. Dr. Kelly made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. I am extremely happy with how my nose turned out and I can breathe much better!

I was referred to Dr. Kelley, by my oncologist, regarding severe pain I was experiencing in my neck. I was concerned, as I had a history of Melanoma, and wanted to rule out metastasis...plus, the pain was cutting into my fun! Dr. Kelley’s staff was amazing and were able to schedule an appointment for me for the next day.

Dr. Kelley was very professional and personable...asking thorough questions and listening to my concerns. I won’t go into the details of my case in my review, however the outcome was positive and I’m cancer...and pain free:)

I have wonderful PPO insurance, however, after receiving the bill for the visits, I realized Dr. Kelley was out-of-network under my plan. (I’m sure his office went over this with me prior to my visit, but frankly I was more concerned with consulting with a top quality doctor, than I was with cost, at the time.) I called Dr. Kelley’s office and his account manager, Hope, was kind enough to negotiate the billing to an in network rate. They didn’t have to do that, but it was a much appreciated and kind thing to do.

I highly recommend Dr. Kelley, as he is not only a very skilled doctor, but also an athlete, who appreciates his “over-30+” patients wanting to stay in optimal health and getting the most from life!

Dr. Timothy Kelly is the one of the surgeons performing a life saving surgery for my 82 year old father which will make his quality of life about 75% better! He quieted my father's fears and I saw nothing wrong with his bedside manner!!! Some people don't understand the talent and sacrifices that Drs. like Dr. Kelly make for patients! We are so relieved he is a part of our beloved father's team! My father was so relieved after his surgery was explained in detail. Thank you Dr. Louis for having him on your team!?

Have no idea what the patients that left bad reviews are talking about. His office staff is amazing, always there to help and get your messages through the doctor when he is bussy with other patients or schedule and authorize the tests that he sends you for (most doctors make you get the authorizations yourself). Regarding him, he is one of the best doctors I ever met and I have asthma and chronic sinus issues so I know a doctor or two. He is not only caring but efficient. He is not the kind of doctor that holds your hand and listens to all your problems while nodding, that is what therapists are for. People should really understand what they are looking for in a doctor before leaving a review. I am not looking for a friend, although I think he is super nice, he is to the point and efficient, that is all you should need in a doctor, I would have another surgery with him ANY DAY!!!

Went to UCI w/husband for biopsy of diagnosed mouth cancer. UCI ENT Clinic was horrible. Over crowded, not clean, lines, depressing, Dr out of office, the other Dr. left by 10:30 am. Nurses said if emergency we should go to ER. We had to wait 30 minutes just to be seen by receptionist to make an appt. (after two 30 minute phone calls on hold). We called Dr. Kelley's office, were in by 4:00, he personally came out to waiting room to call in each patient (clean waiting room of happy patients). He calmed us, took the biopsy, gave us scenarios and options and confirmed our experience at UCI. And he looks like McDreamy so that's our secret name for him. What a difference. Thank you Dr. Kelley.
