Write ReviewPatient Experience with Dr. Edelman
- Anonymous
Terrible Bedside Manner. My experience with Dr. Edelman was hands-down the worst I have ever had with a medical professional of any kind. His demeanor was unpleasant to the point of being rude and aggressive. I have seen him twice and both times felt uncomfortable in his presence. I will not be seeing him again.
