Seems to be very good
A very compassionate and understanding doctor.
Very personable
Dr. Klavas is very approachable and friendly. His exam was thorough and informative.
Explained my situation very clearly and told me exactly what the prognosis was
Very professional, nice and explained everything to me
Even though he stuck me in the heel with a really long needle, he was absolutely great to talk to and he actually listened. My heel pain has subsided considerably and I would recommend Dr. Klavas and staff to anyone in need of their services.
He called me out of my name And I felt uncomfortable
