Patient Reviews
Aug 09, 2018
Dr. Kling is absolutely incredible. She is brilliantly smart, kind and patient. Dr. Kling is wonderful not only with two terribly nervous parents but also my two-year old son. Her expertise allows me to feel as comfortable as possible given the circumstances. I trust my son to her - for me that's the ultimate test. Additionally, her staff is truly spectacular to work with. A+ all around.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
