Vanessa Kaleb, MD

Dr Kaleb is an amazing doctor who took care of me during my pregnancy. Being a first time mom, i was all nerves and full of doubts. She always made me feel at ease and patiently answered all my questions. She made sure to personally call and inform me of every test result. I was quite surprised, since no other doctor has done that for me. She also has a very gentle bedside manner. I am really sad that she has moved out of long beach. Wishing you all the best doctor and thankyou for taking such good care of me :)

Do you see patients outside Kaiser? If not, can you please recommend someone you like who does?

I had an amazing experience during my first visit with Dr. Kaleb in Long Beach and couldn’t wait to return when I found out I was pregnant… but now I see she moved to the Bay. Dr Kaleb is there any OBGYNs that you would recommend to here in Long Beach? Thank you for the amazing experience and if I ever move up north I’ll be sure to locate you.

Had my first appointment with Dr. Kaleb today and am so happy she is my OB! She listened, was honest, calm and down to earth. I’m looking forward to the next 5 months of visits with her until baby arrives. So happy to have met her!!!

Dr Kaleb please come back! Thanks for being the best doctor and not judging me esp with my situation with Kayleb. Thanks for being there for Kayleb and Soriya-​Rose!
Btw this is Vanny O.

Paging Dr. Kaleb! Paging DR. KALEB! Dr. Kaleb where are you! I have searched the internet and made phone calls to Mars and back, can’t find you anywhere! You are the best around, and I have a young cousin who is deathly afraid of womanhood and not only needs a great OBGYN, but one with a great spirit as well! You popped in my head immediately. I was a patient with you only briefly before I changed insurance to Kaiser, but it was long enough for you to leave the most gratifying immpression! But I am saddened that you are no longer in Long Beach and there is no update on where you practice now. Please respond at your earliest convenience!

I absolutely love Dr. Kaleb! So imagine my dismay when I called to make my annual appointment, to find that she is now in the Bay Area. :-(
She is am amazing doctor, truly a rare find. I have never had a doctor who, prior to an exam, would take me into her office, sit down with me, and chat. She always took the time to listen and address any of my concerns, and she always put me at ease.
When I found out I was expecting my first child she was incredibly supportive — to both my husband and I — throughout my entire pregnancy. (My husband loves her as well.) During labor, she was awesome — a total high five in human form. I felt safe, well cared for and knew that I was in good hands. Our delivery was relatively easy, and I have her to thank for that. (The nurses were fantastic too).
I really wish her the best and she will be missed. And I have now told my husband to start looking for jobs in the Bay Area, lol.

My husband and I love Dr. Kaleb! She took the time to listen and address our numerous questions and concerns during pregnancy. She showed up promptly during labor and took charge. She never gave us any reason to worry during labor (even when we experienced a slight complication with our little one) and cheered me through delivery. Our experience with her was memorable.
Dr Kaleb: Thank you so much for your time and taking great care of me through my pregnancy and delivery. We had full confidence in you and everything went so smoothly. We are so sad that you are no longer in our area but we will continue to speak highly of you and tell all our friends of our experience! Best of luck up North!

Dr. Kaleb is an amazing doctor. She delivered both my boys. Like the others, my first came on a day, that should have only been a routine visit. She continually checked on me and communicated with me through the process so I would know what to expect. She ensured my after care was top notch (I had nurse Ratchet my first night in the hospital). She rectified the situation as soon as she was made aware. I was saddened when I received my annual notice and learned she had left the Long Beach practice. I traveled from Chino to Long Beach during both my pregnancies, if that gives you any indication of her care and compassion she provides. The patients in her new practice are extremely lucky. I wish you the best of luck.

Dr. Kaleb is the best doctor ever. My wife doesn’t speak English at all, however, she likes her so much. Dr. Kaleb always answers her questions with great attitude. I wish you all the best Dr. Kaleb

Called today to make an appt and was told Dr Kaleb moved up north. I almost cried. This is my first appt since she delivered my son Atticus almost two years ago. The office is nice and friendly, but the only reason I went there was for Dr. Kaleb. I’m hoping the move is not a long term thing. :(

Note: rating not for their services. Called today to book an appt with dr. Kaleb. The front office told me that she is no longer a provider there… She moved up north. Fyi they are also only ppo providers. Bummer. I can see how 1^st impressions matter the front office did seem short, not very friendly.

Update: Thanks Dr. Kaleb for the prompt note. I work in the healthcare field and know how vital the front office is, in supporting, reflecting your brand, work culture. I ended up finding an office that did take my hmo about 10 min later and even though it was a monday they were much more on point with handling a new patient and customer service. Heathcare is still customer/​patient care. Best of luck up north.

Dr. Kaleb is a great doctor! She’s very knowledgeable! She makes you feel conformable and the office staff is nice and clean.

I only saw Dr Kaleb once and it was for a women’s wellness check/​first Pap smear! From the beginning she was very professional, approachable and kind. She made me feel comfortable the entire time. I signed up for «mychart» through memorial care and she responded quickly to any concerns that I had through messaging. She even messaged me saying she was moving her practice to a different location, which was very considerate of her. I wish she wasn’t leaving so I could continue to see her!!! Thanks Dr. Kaleb for being a practitioner that goes above and beyond!!!

I moved to Long Beach from Florida in 2011 and soon after I needed to see an OBGYN for my yearly. I left an amazing doctor back in Florida and was really afraid of the daunting task of finding a new doctor I would like and feel comfortable with. I turned to Unilocal and stumbled across Dr. Kaleb and I’m so happy I did! She is so personable and makes you feel comfortable right from the start. Also, everyone in that office is friendly and a few times I had to see Dr. Franklin when Dr. Kaleb was out of town, and I would recommend her as well! I moved to Phoenix in March of 2014, but for the last year I still see Dr. Kaleb when I go back to visit Long Beach. Unfortunately, I won’t be going back to the LB so much this year and I have to find a new doctor, which I’m less than thrilled about. Hopefully Unilocal will lead me to the right one, like it did to Dr. Kaleb! I will miss her dearly!

Dr. Kaleb is absolutely amazing! She delivered our first born son and made the experience incredible. She makes every visit memorable and she takes the time to answer all questions ensuring that her patients understand whats going on and how it’ll affect them/​their pregnancy. I can’t thank her enough for everything she has done for my wife. We will never forget the care and words of inspiration she gave Monica during her delivery. Dr. Kaleb, you are thee best!!!

Finding a great OB is quite a task and like many of you I turned to Unilocal to help me in my search. This is where I found the amazing Dr. Kaleb. I started seeing her about this time last year when I learned I was pregnant… with twins!
Throughout my pregnancy she was always available to see me and answer my random questions via email. Many of my friends have horrific stories about being pregnant and unable to get seen/​talk to their OB but not me I was quite spoiled (maybe it was the twins but I dont think so). Everyime I came in she took her time checking me out, asking me what I had been up to, answering my questions and always made sure I left knowing what was going to happen next (in terms of my pregnancy and what I need to be prepared for). She even took all of my «anxiety driven» last minute appointments seriously (new the the whole pregnancy world I freaked out alot).
On the day of my delivery I went in for my standard weekly check up and upon hearing about some unusual things I was experiencing sent me directly over to L&D to get checked out more throughly. I was there for maybe 2 hours (just long enough for them to get me in and run some tests) and she came by just to check up on me. What a relief that was, knowing that my doctor who already had a packed schedule took the time to run over and check on me — a momma to be sitting in L&D 6 weeks before her due date (not exactly something she probably thought she would be doing that day). Throughout the remainder of my time in labor she probably came by and checked in on me another 2 – 3 times before I was far enough along for delivery. Then when the time came for delivery, she clearly explained what was going to happen, and what we would do if any emergencies came up. To top it off — my mother’s flight in was delayed and Dr. Kaleb personally walked down to the lobby of the hospital to save my mom from the long looming security line so she could say «good luck» before it all began… After delivery Dr. Kaleb checked in on me daily at the hospital and gave me a great peditrician referral for the boys.
Couldn’t be happier — if she hasn’t maxed out her patient loading by now, I would definately give her a call.

Too many fabulous things to say about Dr Kaleb. So many words to describe… warm, gentle, smart, comforting, witty, funny, compassionate… I could go on and on. I accidentally crossed paths with Dr Kaleb years ago when searching for a new physician. I hit the jackpot with her. She not only is great at what she does, she never makes you feel rushed and makes you always feel more than just another patient!

I love Dr. Kaleb! She is such a great doctor! She always made my husband and I feel so comfortable every time we went to see her, and she’s a great listener. I also want to add that I ended having preeclampsia during my pregnanancy and dr. Kaleb took really good care of me and my baby. She literally saved our lives is all I can say. If you’re looking for a great doctor that listens and takes care of you, she is the one for you. I am so happy that Dr. Kaleb delivered my baby. She will always hold a special place in our hearts. So thankful for her.

Dr. Kaleb is simply amazing! From day one she made me feel comfortable in her office. She has a special place in my family. Thank you for being so great.
