July 04, 2024PRIMARY CHILDREN'S MEDICAL CENTERDr Klatt is amazing! My daughter's surgery went perfectly and she's had a very quick recovery. While in the hospital post surgery Dr Klatt made sure to visit often. He really encouraged both of us even though it was a hard few days. He cares about the kids in his care and is so great at helping them feel comfortable about their procedure. Highly recommend him to any one needing a spinal surgeon!
