Review from B.P.

Through my own selection process, I researched and met with various surgeons, all of whom had been highly recommended by their former patients. Dr. Klausner's medical training, surgical experience, general attitude, holistic approach, informative website, advanced techniques, and exquisite results were the most impressive by far. I am now fortunate enough to offer first-hand...

Review from M.

Lee Ann is kind, thoughtful, empathetic and ultimately the best doctor I've ever worked with. I came to her after a 10 year search for a practitioner that could also dual as a healer for an issue I had suffered with, being a perforated septum due to a previous invasive surgery that had gotten larger over time. I had seen many ENT's throughout this sea...

When I saw her the day following my surgery she gave me a gentle face wash all aroun...

At each appointment, it was impossible not to compare everyone to Dr. Klausner. Her ability to gather information, formulate a plan with options that met my needs, and offer fe...

Review from N.S.

I am someone who does tons of research before picking doctors- especially ones who would potentially do surgery on me- which is how I found Dr. Klausner 7 years ago. Dr. Klausner is the best Doctor I've seen, to this day. After chronic sinusitis, I had a septoplasty and rhinoplasty with Dr. Klausner- 7 years later, I have had one sinus infection since in ...
