Not sure if this was a one time event or not. I’ve never met this doctor before. Just feel someone needs to inform patients for that long of a wait.

Dr. Kleiber made me feel at ease. As it was our first time together, he explored my medical history, solicited my input as to symptoms that I experienced prior to past cardiac events. Present day health issues were discussed and evaluated and an in office EKG was performed to establish an updated baseline for future evaluations of my cardiac health. I left feeling that I was in caring hands of not only Dr. Kleiber, but the entire staff that took care of me during my appointment.
