I was so impressed by the staff, and Dr. Klause! Very professional, and very compassionate. I would highly recommend! A special shout out to Michelle. I have had quite a difficult time getting answers for some pain in my leg. I feShow morelt like the doctors I called didn’t care. Michelle was very calm and very compassionate to me. From being so frustrated, I got emotional when talking to her, but her sweet and caring demeanor calmed me right down. Dr. Klause was very kind and compassionate. She directed me on who I needed to see, and what I needed, I.e. MRI. I’m very thankful for her help.
