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.

He did not do the surgery properly the first time.
He operated on my back and did not remove the entire mass which came back in 4 months. When trying to get it removed a second time, olol wanted to recharge my deductible up front with no payment options. He does not stand behind his work to make sure it's done properly.

Dr. Kleinpeter took care of my Dad last year when he was very sick. My Dad was under Dr. Kleinpeter’s care for almost a year & he is by far our most favorite MD ever! Dr. Kleinpeter is very smart and the best at what he does. He’s also kind & compassionate with the family & patient. We were extremely pleased with him & blessed to have him as Dad’s physician. Thanks Dr. K & thanks also to his kind staff!

Dr. Kleinpeter is a fantastic doctor! Removed my son's appendix, and in less than 24 hours he was home. Thorough exam first, quick results, couldn't have been any easier for an out of the blue emergency. I highly recommend Dr. Kleinpeter. His staff was outstanding as well.

My wife had gall bladder surgery with Dr Kleinpeter in 2015 upon recommendation of a family member. After the great BR flood of 2016, I ended up with two hernias from lifting freezers, pianos, etc. just trying to help friends and neighbors stay dry. I went to see Dr Kleinpeter because of the excellent care my wife received with her gall bladder surgery. After 2 surgeries to fix my hernias, my impression of Dr Kleinpeter is even more solid. I highly recommend him; he's a great doctor!
