How likely are you to recommend Dr. Klifto?
Referred to Dr. Klifto after a sports injury left my pinky and thumb fractured. They had to marry an ulnar gutter with a thumb spica cast to create the ugly but effective love child that healed my left hand. He was so positive and uplifting as a caregiver. So many kudos to the resident whose name I forgot (he assisted with that cast and he was so sweet--please make sure he sees this) who had empathized with me over the thumb spica bit. I have been a nurse for 28 years, and whenever I have unfortunately been on the receiving end of care, I am reminded why my job is important. We are the folks people turn to when they are scared and hurting. Thank you Dr. Klifto and that sweet resident who made me feel taken care of.
