out of Read Reviews for Dr. Rodney Klima
Just happened to see last review and sounds like crazy person knows how to type. Interesting that she seems to know more about orthodontia than the person who has been in practice for probably as long as she's been out of diapers. I am BS dental hygienist and husband is retired military dentist. Dr. Klima is the best! Would not have family go anywhere else. He has been an American Dental Association delegate representing his professional peers for probably a decade or more.. you don't get to be put in that position by other dentists if you don't know what you are doing or are not professional. What decent mother bashes her child's looks online?. Every case is different and some parents refuse to actually cooperate with treatment ( ie missing appointments, having child comply with instructions, refusing needed extractions when jaw is too small to accomodate teeth, etc.. seen it all in my years in practice) Have a feeling this woman falls into one of those categories.. she protesteth too much... Why did she not switch orthodontists if she was so dissatisfied and thought she knew so much. Why did her general dentist not recommend a change mid-stream.. surely she had regular check ups. It's a free country!!
About Front Desk: Professional.. friendly. everyone had bad days.. maybe front desk personnel reflect attitude of person standing in front of them!

I think that this orthodontics is still in the '70s. His ideas are terrible. First of all, during the consultation he said I would be done in two years. It took three and a half years and I am still not pleased about my daughter's teeth. Her case is still not finished. When he took out her braces , her teeth were not done. Her four front teeth especially her lateral. It looks like it's horizontal. Her molars are not touching so there are holes when she smiles. The bite of her teeth is terrible to this day. He said that her teeth are looking great and that there isn't anything else that needs to be done. All he does is play with her teeth and doesn't try other things so her bite will be better.He is the most unreliable dentist I saw in my life. Since I was not pleased with my teeth, other orthodontists would give you a portion of the money back so you can finish . He told me that he would refund some money in front of my daughter, the assistants, and I . The next appointment he said that he wouldn't refund any money. HE IS A LIAR!!!!
About Front Desk: The lady in the front had a very bad attitude to me. She always has a dirty look on her face.

Dr. Klima treated both my daughters. He's very gentle and soft-spoken. His office staff is excellent and very cordial. His payment plan is very reasonable. I'd recommend him to anyone.

I've used Dr. Klima for 2 childrens' orthodontia. He's very reasonably priced, very likeable and very capable. He's also got a great staff. I'd recommend him to anyone! I pay abourt $111/mo. for 26 months for my portion of one child's orthodontia.

Both my kids were (are) treated by Dr. Klima. My only complaint is most of the time-consuming procedures are done in the morning, and when school is in session, this creates problems. Overall, we've been very pleased with him and his staff.

The first few visits I didn't question anything and let him do his thing. After making things worse I questioned everything he did and eventually demanded he move certain teeth. Not once did he do what I asked and he actually made an irreversible move and then proceeded to tell me for months saying that my teeth were like that before treatment and he would not let me see my records to show him that he is wrong. Long story short after 15 months and 15 visits, my mouth is worse than when I started because I had an accident and he said I needed 6-9 months to make minor changes..

Dr. Klima is an excellent orthodonist. We've had good results with three of our children. The staff is throroughly professional. Price is reasonable, though not inexpensive, and made clear up front. We will bring child number four to Dr. Klima when and if he needs braces.
