Highly recommend Dr. Klaus, he is very efficient and kind. Having him as a PCP has made keeping track of my health easier and feel confident that I have one main Dr as my base, who knows me and my history ???? The best!

Intellectually incurious. Sloppy. Condescending. Almost half a year in to treatment, I had to insist he send me to a specialist, which has resulted in an 8 month delay to my care. Told me he "just didn't understand why I was in so much pain" despite clear documentation of a severe spine problem with nerve damage, blood markers showing ongoing inflammation, and multiple other medical issues. Just reviewed my chart, and despite me giving him my records from previous doctors, the medical problem list is incomplete. Dr. Klaus needs to spend more time learning about the real world challenges people in pain face, rather than being so dismissive. Not impressed at all.

Been seeing him for about 5 months now, and he is very condescending and spends less than 10 minutes with me on every visit, even on a so-called "physical". I have to do all of the leg-work myself as far as referrals are concerned, And none of my symptoms are any better.
