Dr. Kligman and his staff were great. Dr. Kligman will tell you about the process straight forward in terms that you can understand. Tara rocks-she is the best. Tara has the best bedside manner I've ever seen. She followed-up and answered all my questions and was truely concerned. The hospital staff was Awesome!! If you are considering surgery go to UMMC.

THIS MAN IS THE BEST I JUST LOVE HIM HE IS STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. I HAD MY SURGERY ON FEB 18 2013 AND WAS ABLE TO GO HOME THE NEXT DAY. HE SAID I MADE HIM WORK WITH MY BIG LIVER BUT I TELL YOU ONE THING I CANT TELL CAUSE I NEVER FELT PAIN I THOUGHT I WOULD BE MOVING SLOW AND FEELING PAIN BUT I FELT NOTHING. I MUST SAY DOCTOR KLIGMAN AND HIS STAFF ARE THE BEST.I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE. THANKS DOCTOR FOR ALL YOUR HARD YET GENTLE WORK MAY GOD BLESS YOU
Dr. Kligman is considered a high end doctor based on my knowledge and the reviews. Consider yourself blessed if your able to get him to do your procedure. He's very straight forward and direct, either you will like him and appreciate his honesty, or love him. His office staff is kind, but the hospital staff is AMAZING! He will tell you that once you become his patient, you are his patient for life. You will only meet him just about 3 times total before surgery, that's including the orientation, so be prepared and trust me you'll be fine. In all of this, he does have a sense of humor which makes the difference. Happy to even mention his name.
Dr. Kligman is so knowledgable. I really respect his opinion and advice. All of his staff are very friendly and educated to answer any questions that may arise. The nurse practitioner (Tara?) was a great deal of help when I had a complication and became very worried. It turned out to be nothing to worry about.
