Celebrity dermatologist Dr. Alex Khadavi is arrested after being caught on camera launching into homophobic tirade against neighbor where he threatened to 'blow your head off, f****t'

 Celebrity dermatologist Dr. Alex Khadavi has been arrested after he was caught on camera repeatedly using a homophobic slur during a dispute with a gay neighbor.

Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies were spotted outside Khadavi's West Hollywood condo on Friday afternoon, TMZ reported. 

Although he was not seen in handcuffs, inmate records indicate Khadavi, 48, was arrested at 2.15pm and released on a bond around 5.37pm.

He faces charges of felony criminal threats and is expected in court on Monday morning. His bail was set at $50,000.

Khadavi - who has treated stars including Scott Disick, David Hasselhoff and Lance Bass - was purportedly recorded on surveillance video threatening the man in the lobby of their plush West Hollywood condo complex on July 7.

'I'll f**k you up, f**king f****t!' a man - reported to be Khadavi - is heard yelling in the footage, which was obtained by TMZ last week.

The incident comes four years after the LA dermatologist was accused of threatening to kill Million Dollar Listing star Matt Altman and hurling anti-Semitic abuse at him. 

In footage of the incident earlier this month, the man is seen approaching the concierge and ranting about the 'f**king f****t'.  

'I'll  shoot you, I don't give a f**k... Nobody tells me what to do,' the man is then heard yelling, as a concierge looks on helplessly. 


The foul-mouthed tirade goes on for more than a minute before the man taunts: 'I'll shoot you in the f**king face, f**king f****t!' 

'I'll blow your f**king head off!' he subsequently states. 

The neighbor filed a restraining order against Khadavi, saying he 'fears for his life'. 

In legal documents obtained by TMZ, the concierge allegedly claimed that Khadavi 'showed him a handgun he was carrying [while leaving the condo complex]' around two months ago. 

The celebrity dermatologist did not respond to TMZ's request for comment and he has not addressed the controversy on his Instagram page.

Back in 2016, real estate agent Altman obtained a restraining order against Khadavi for making 'anti-Semitic death threats' and threatening him in person and over the phone. 

Altman claimed in documents, seen by TMZ at the time, that Khadavi approached him at a real estate event.

When Altman asked him to leave because it was a private event, Khadavi allegedly told him he 'hated all Jews' and threatened to kill him. 

The documents also claimed Altman had been receiving racist and homophobic phone calls from Khadavi for years.  

In May, Khadavi said he was selling his 21,000-square-foot Bel-Air home for $87,777,777 - one of the highest price tags in the area in recent months (pictured above)

The dermatologist denied the allegations at the time with a rep telling TMZ he is Jewish and had been invited as a guest to the event.  

The restraining order said the doctor had to stay 100 yards away from Altman and his girlfriend and his brother and Million Dollar co-star Josh Altman and his wife.
