I do not recommend this person to anyone, I would say "doctor" but most take an oath to do no harm. From the moment he met me he treated me like the piece of *waste* that he is!!

Finally a doctor who gives the patient an opportunity to talk and ask questions without making you feel like you're wasting time. He actually listens. A kind, gentle and laid back demeanor. Thanks Doctor Cline!!

Fantastic doctor! I had some problems and Dr. Cline thoroughly explained everything and put my mind at ease. The procedure went beautifully with no pain whatsoever! Dr. Cline treats you with respect and is a very caring doctor.

This doctor treats his staffs like dirt. He pretend to be nice to his patients but behind the scene he will not afraid to use "F" words with people who work for him. Very bad manner. I would not recommend to other patient.

Outstanding Doctor. Very thorough and thoughtful. I felt no pain during or after the fistula removal. My discomfort the following days was very minimal. This Doctor is top notch.

Dr Cline treated my husband for rectal cancer, and several years later I chose him to do my own surgery. His skill, knowledge and approachable manner are unmatched in my experience with doctors. Office appointments are scheduled so that he has time to answer questions and discuss the case with patients. The same goes for hospital visits.
