Dr Kleczka was extremely thorough and explained my overall cardiac health and history that other physicians never did. I sincerely appreciate his honesty and explanation. As my new cardiologist I am happy I have made the right decision to change doctors.

For my mid-day appointment, Dr Kleczka was running so ahead of schedule that I was called from the waiting room seconds after checking in and hadn't even been seated yet, he arrived maybe 1 minute after the nurse/technician did all the preliminary stuff (rx review, blood pressure, etc), and was done with my appointment before my scheduled start time. And we were not rushed in our appointment. That's efficient and impressive!
