I've only had one appointment with Dr Cline (so far). I was impressed with him and how he wanted all of the information that I could give him to help him treat my kidney issues.

Since taking over my kidney care I Think Dr. Cline is the only reason I'm alive today. He has finally got my high blood pressure under control. He is changing my meds to give me a better quality of life. I would recommend him to anyone seeking care.

Dr Cline is taking over my blood pressure and kidney function. He is very thorough and listens to my concerns. He takes the time to explain treatments to me. I have his nurse CJ on speed dial and she takes all of my questions and answers very promptly. They are both very friendly and kind. I recommend them to all of my friends and relatives that are in need of an excellent kidney Doctor.

Excellent Dr not so good office staff. Changed an appointment to a different time. When I got there I found out that his staff had changed another patients time instead of mine. I was told I did not show up. The blood draw was sent to the wrong lab, twice!! Refused to write a note to the lab to explain their error. $300.00 rather than $30.00, twice. He said the blood drawer wasn't his employee and he wasn't responsible.

I've been seeing Dr Cline for a couple years now and having seen three other doctors over about a 7 year span I will say he is the best one of all in the mountain states area.
