I’ve been seeing dr. kietz since I was 8 years old, I’m 16 now. He has always went beyond his ways to do everything he possibly could for me and because of him I’m a fully functional healthy kid and I cannot thank him enough. Besides the staff and the waiting time, he is absolutely great. He has perfect bedside manner and he is the best doctor I’ve ever had. Could not recommend a better doctor

Dr. Kietz has been seeing my daughter since she was 14 years old and now she is 24 and he still sees her. He is very compassionate and never in a hurry. He always talks to her for a good while before the exam to see how things are going as he understands the impact of stress on autoimmune conditions. His exam is very thorough and he explains everything very well. He even calls personally with test results or to follow up on concerns. Sometimes he returns these calls in the evening or on the weekend. He is such a committed and dedicated doctor! We are very grateful for Dr. Kietz!

We spent one year trying to get our daughter diagnosed by other doctors around the area and he was the only one that heard her and the pain she was going through. He spent one hour carefully going over every joint in her body and in the end, he talked with her about her condition. We all felt great after this visit and now she knows what is wrong with her and how to deal with it. Great doctor, Great visit!!

Made us wait for over 2 hours. Office staff was not helpful and very unprofessional. The nurses had no idea where the doctor was or what he was doing, and when we finally were seen, we were told that the clinical staff had no idea that we were even there. Make an appointment at your own risk.
