When I started with Dr. Klaff a couple of years ago, I was very sick. She told me that she could see. I wasn't doing well and that she was going to make it her business to help bring healing to me. And she did.

Dr. Klaff was very thorough in her exam and decision making (and included me in the decision making). She really listened to my concerns and addressed them completely and without judgement. Being treated by her felt like a partnership and I feel confident in our plan for my care.

Dr. Klaff is the best Doctor I have ever had. She saw me the first time in July when I was very sick, and decided she was going to make me a project. She has positively changed my health. I can breathe so much better now. She did dozens of tests to see what was wrong with me and finally diagnosed a very rare auto immune problem. She prescribed a medication which has greatly helped. She has listened, consulted with co-workers, continued to do blood testing and pulmonary testing. She has been amazing.

Dr. Klaff - is not only any extraordinary health care provider, but an extraordinary human being. Her concern - not only for the issue at hand, but my entire physical and mental well being - is absolutely unbelievable...Her knowledge and expertise - not only in her specific area, but in associated aspects is superb. If only the country had more Dr. Klaffs.......

Dr. Klaff always looks at my medical issues a little differently, which has helped us discover some uncommon causes that nobody else could figure out. And yet, Dr. Klaff does this quickly and seemingly easily. She's a humble genius, and really pleasant person as well.
