Patient Reviews
Jan 21, 2022
Office staff is very helpful and polite. I originally saw Dr. Klaus for surgery to fix a "trigger finger". Upon more in depth looking, he noticed that I also had Dupuytren's disease of the hand and also corrected that during the same surgery. He gave me various treatment options & together, we determined that surgery would be most beneficial for me. I was back to work in four weeks and my hand feels great. I do a lot of typing and hand dexterity movements, especially with my job, so fixing my hand was of utmost importance to me. I was even able to get back to the gym quickly since I did every post surgery exercise recommendation that was given to my via a printout from the surgery center and his office. I would definitely recommend Dr. Klaus for any hand surgery that is needed. He spent a lot of time with me during my visit. He was very knowledgeable of my hand problem, and he had great bedside manner.
