Swedish Richmond Beach is an excellent clinic and location. I never feel like I am going to get sick by going there and there is always a lot of room in the entrance area. Staff is all good.

As always, Dr. Klem listened attentively and answered all of my questions combining medical research, his medical knowledge and in a practical way so I could easily understand. He always offers services that might be available, and provides thoughtful analysis and explanations of my current health review. I would highly recommend him.

Swedish acheduled me (for non emergency app't) in a very short time. Dr. Klem was terrific and thorough.
