Dr Kleczka and associated staff are great. I trust Dr Klecszka! Issues with cardiology revolve around scheduling changes and inability to get a timely appointment.
Thank you
Dr. Kleczka is an excellent cardiologist. He is personable, easy to communicate with, listens to and answers questions in a way I can understand. He is highly knowledgeable, but also sensitive to fears and concerns related to the heart. I feel like I've received a thorough evaluation, with appropriate recommendations if needed.
Dr. Kleczka is an amazing professional and person. He is thorough, thoughtful, knowledgeable and patient-centric. I will easily recommend him to others. Thank you!
The doctor had excellent communication skills.
Excellent physician!
Dr Kletzca always sees me before my appointment time and listens to all of my concerns and doesn't rush. This is what a great doctor looks like!
Very personable and professional. Once done with the basic questions he asked again if there were any other concerns I had and answered my question with a detailed explanation.
As always, Dr. Kleczka provided me the best combination of medical expertise and personal care in my visit. The result is me feeling very confident about the care I get at Froedtert. And optimistic about my health.
Came early, on time. Seen shortly thereafter. No problems in the clinic. Campus and parking lot are challenging.
My visit went very well. I am pleased with my health care experience today.
Excellent!
Dr. Kleczka is a primary reason I am still among the health living. For over a decade, he has been responsible for my heart health and has done a superlative job.
Good overall experience! Thank you.
Very efficient
Appointment started on time and was super efficient. Very refreshing
Excellent care, Dr K and his fellow were great.
The worst part of my doctor visit was just getting to the parking structure. Not surprisingly my blood pressure was a bit elevated when I got in the office. The visit itself was great. I couldn't ask for better care. It's the best care anywhere. Please pass my comments on to the staff and doctor. Thank you!
Dr Kleczka is wonderful! He listens and cares. He is the only Dr. That when I get there 15 minutes early, he takes me early and l never have to wait more than a few minutes. He will fit you in if you're having an issue. He books out pretty far because he had so many patients. He is worth the wait!
Everything was excellent from start to finish.
Visit was positive and staff was professional.
I really felt that Dr.James Kleczka was attentive, understood my concerns, was very helpfulAnd encouraging In putting my cardio recovery in perspective.
Dr. Kleczka was excellent and arranged a follow-up appt. Immediately for a problem.
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about my appointment with Dr. Kleczka today. I was seen quickly after I arrived, no waiting. Dr. K listened to everything I had to say, asked a lot of good questions, and explained everything. He is friendly, and I trust him, and his advice. Couldn't be happier!
Dr Kletzcka is amazingly efficient, while still giving me the time I felt I needed for the checkup and for my questions. I was early for my appointment. I was called back to the exam room after a very short wait and well before my scheduled appointment time. And my appointment with Dr Kletzcka was concluded before my actual appointment start time. That is efficient!
Dr. Kleczka and staff run a very efficient and professional office. I checked in about 30 minutes earlier than scheduled and within minutes my name was being called. Dr. Kleczka is a true professional and has always been open, honest and transparent. It is a pleasure to be one of his patients.
Over the years I had no droughts or c po concerns at all, perfect all the time
Dr Kleczka and the team at this clinic are exemplary in provision of care in a caring, safe, timely, efficient, and patient-centered manner. I am treated with respect, warmth, and my appointments run like clock work. The manner in which this clinic provides care is a model to be replicated by others in the system. I acknowledge the team from check-in through scheduling my next appointment.
Dr. Klezcka runs the most efficient clinic in the entire hospital. Other clinicians should take lessons from him. On time and on target.
Very efficient and patient focused!
