Healthgrades (Dr. Michael Gorman)

"This was the worst doctor’s visit I have ever had in my entire life, and I have seen many doctors. Dr. Kozal showed absolutely no concern for my well being, was rude and unprofessional..."

Healthgrades (Dr. Jared Kozal)

"Dr. Klassen was a joy. Professional, kind, and concerned. Very thorough... It was a delight for one with medical phobia to encounter such a positively reinforcing experience."

Healthgrades (Dr. R. Bryan Klassen)

"The problem I have is with the clerk Nicky, she is awful. I have been a patient for over a year and she simply does not get better. She does not answer the phone, is rude to patients..."
