I went to see Dr. Kleist for a diagnosis of the cause of my knee pain. He kept manipulating my hip and patella asking me if it hurt. By 6 PM the same day I was in acute pain and had to go to urgent care. Whatever he did cause acute sciatica. He also has very poor bedside manner.

Dr Kliest did my total knee 2 years ago. I can't express how impressed I was with my care. He was very informative and patient. He never rushed me at my appointments and always asked ( do you have any other questions?). My surgery went very well and my recovery was smooth.
