Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Prescribes Harsh Side Effects-PARENTS DO RESEARCH
First off, he doesn't listen to your problems and tells you what you are dealing with is 'normal'. Second off, he prescribes things without making you aware of the side effects. He prescribed me medication for mild acne which - when I did my own due diligence and read the paperwork - said it has increased risk of bloody diarrhea which leads to colitis and death. This also leads to increased risk of colon cancer. Cancer is definitely not worth it for clear skin. He also prescribed me things as a child which led to sever mental health effects without making myself or my parents known of the risks. PARENTS IF HE PRESCRIBES SOMETHING FOR YOUR CHILD PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH INTO THE RISKS!!!

Listens well not pyshy
We switched from a popular office in Pickerington and couldn't be happier. Respect our pace to do things, always listens to our concerns or questions and answers without making you feel bad for asking. The male nurse they have is great with the kids. Both klima and the female doctor are great.

Normally I don't review doctors but after seeing the last review, I feel obligated. Both of my children have been seeing Dr. Klima, my eldest saw the pediatrician in the office before she was promoted and Dr. Klima came in. In 4 years, I have never had one rude nurse. Judy, the primary receptionist has always gone above and beyond to help us. Dr. Klima has always been good with my kids and explained concerns clearly. He's always been sympathetic to my concerns and I am not an easy patient.

Do not bring your child to this practice. We were searching for a pediatrician to take good care of our children, and we're so incredibly dissapointed by the rude behavior of the staff and inability of the doctor to connect with our children. We were just a name on a list to them. Horrible and rude nurses who had no experience working with young children. We immediately left the practice and will never be back. Such a horrible experience.
