I have ortho issues so moving to [...] and having to find a new ortho doc was frightening. But Dr Kling took that fright away and I have been nothing but happy with him. He is honest and upfront, in a professionalway, that's what I want and prefer

Between Dr King and his PA, appointment was easy and they understood my concern. I'm comfortable with the conservative approach at this time. Hopefully will heal with time. Dr Kling let me know options and will be available if needed. Thank you for your time! Very much appreciated.

Still waiting on MRI or someone to really confirm what all is wrong. He gave the best explanation he could I guess. Surgery likely wouldn't benefit me.
