I have seen him 3 times so far, waited till the 3rd time to decide to write this. He is unprofessional in his communication and talks down to patients, repeatedly. Cares more about his ego and orders unnecessary tests repeatedly. He is even worse with staff. He has seen my other family members as well but until I was a patient myself, I didn't really realize how he truly is. On occasions, I felt him touching me inappropriately and heard similar stories from my neighbors. I have seen one other of his associate in the past, very similar vibe. There are plenty of caring kidney doctors around here, avoid this one, find anyone else.

Women please do not go to Klein. He was unprofessional and made me very uncomfortable. He is creepy and acted in a manner that was unacceptable.

14 years ago Klein was assigned to me. He always seemed to doubt the validity of what I was reporting. Ultimately, and I have it on paper, he said that because patient has psychiatric history, "surreptitious drug use" may account for my main symptom. Hope he's learned something over the years.

Dr. Klein is an ok doctor. I cannot wait for my prenatal visits to finish. My biggest complaint is the wait. Dr. Klein takes way too long. I am not coming back to see him because of the wait. It's unbearable specially when you are expecting. Also, there is no privacy. You could hear the office staff chit chat about patients even when the window is closed. Don't be fool find another GYN doctor who will see you promptly NOT 2 hours from your scheduled appointment.

Dr Klein will spend as much time with you as you desire. Goes out of his way to make sure you are totally informed regarding your condition. Has always called back with test results.

Dr. Philip Klein is a very excellent & caring Doctor. He gives each patient amble time to diagnois and understand their needs. He is also very kind and understanding. The office & nursing staff are very efficient and pleasant. There are sometimes that you do have to wait to see him, he does not rush his exams with his patients and I find it well worth the wait.....
