About Elliot Felman, MD
Elliot D. Felman, MD was born in Philadelphia, where he attended Drexel University College of Medicine. He received his undergraduate degree in Molecular Biology at the University of Pennsylvania, and he earned his MD at Hahnemann Medical College. Dr. Feldman went on to complete his graduate work at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California.
Board Certified in Family Medicine, Dr. Feldman is a member of the Internal Society of Travel Medicine and the American Academy of Family Practice. Dr. Feldman teaches at both the Western University of Health Sciences and the UCLA Medical School. He has also been an expert reviewer on the Medical Board for the State of California. A published author in the National Library of Medicine, Dr. Felman is often described by his patients as friendly and professional.
Dr. Felman is the proud father of two wonderful daughters. His daughter, Madison, graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri, and she is now in a Ph.D. program at UCLA in Hispanic Languages and Literature.

In his free time, Dr. Felman enjoys reading, skiing, tennis, Pilates, and travel. Since he is a passionate lover of animals, both domestic and wild, it is no surprise to learn that he shares his home with three cats, one dog, and a sun conure, which is a small parrot.
Dr. Felman has been my doctor for over 25 years and am so glad that I have such a caring doctor.
