About Me:
My philosphy is straight forward: when you have a good primary care physician, with easy access to care and we have a good relationship, you will find that most of your problems can be handled as an outpatient. Your health and life depend on you having someone you can talk to and be heard by. I believe that good public health is the primary basis for all of healthcare. Public health comes in many forms, but over my career I have become concerned about a form of public health I call spiritual public health. I believe each of us is continuously growing and developing in many ways throughout our lives. My mid-life work has taught me the value and importance of developing our souls. I believe every stage of life has a spiritual journey which needs development and expression. To the extent we are successful at this development, we will have good spiritual public health. Hobbies include: Hiking, Music, Photography, Art, Hunting, Gardening

The most outstanding thing that characterizes my visits and my wife's visits is that Dr. Climer always takes time to listen carefully to our concerns before making some type of diagnosis.

Dr .Climer has been my doctor for many years and I hate the idea that he would retire while I am still alive. He is one of the main reasons why I am am still alive. I am grateful for his dedication. He is a very kind and understanding doctor who is a credit to the medical profession. The world is better because he is in it.

I had glued my index & next finger together with Super Glue. I tried to get them open & put a bandage on them. I had sprayed Crisco oil on them & they were open when Dr. Climer cut the bandage off. He said to check for injection but they healed nicely!

My provider is excellent, it is the front Office , appointment person that is a problem! It is hard to get an appointment and even if you think you have an appointment and are told one is available that may not actually be the case! I was called at 10:40 am told I could get in that day at 3:20, I called back at 11 am and left a message because she was out to lunch that I would be there please hold the appointment! I live 11/2 hours away from the clinic, I was one block from the Office at 3:06 I get a phone call telling me , I hope you did not come over because you actually do not have an appointment, that leaving a message doesn't work you have to talk directly to the appointment person!!! So from 11 am to 3: pm no one had checked the messages! Therefore, I never got to see the doctor , wasted my time, absolutely no apologies and no asking if I wanted to reschedule! It took me another Month and a Half to get an appointment! If I did not like my doctor so well I would most definitely go somewhere else! When I did get my appointment finally it was with a different person working the desk that day , when I went in for my appointment the person involved in the first issue never once acknowledged or spoke, because I had called in and made a complaint immediately that was never acknowledged!

This was a new patient visit. Our regular PCP of 30+ years retired suddenly. We are glad to have found a Dr.who was accepting new patients and it seems Dr.Climer will be a very good fit for my wife and I.

This is a new clinic for me and new insurance so it did take quite some time to get in for my first appointment but I must say the office staff was very nice and professional during this time And with postponing/rescheduling my appointments and communicating this with me. Very lovely staff!

I fill the Dr didn't really listen to what I had to say. He seemed unsure of the diagnosis and just told me take ibuprofen 3-4 times a day for three weeks.

Very good
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I have NEVER had a bad experience with Dr. Climer, or ANY of his staff. I feel like a friend every time I see Dr. Climer, from Vicki at the reception desk to Roberto in the exam room. I have recommended Dr. Climer to everyone I care about, and they have become his patients as well. They, too, rave about his compassion and empathy, from my wife, to my brother to my best friend. We ALL feel the same way. I don't care to envision my health care experience without Dr. Climer guiding me. I REALLY can't say enough good things about him or his staff. I honestly Thank God for his care.

I probably should not have gone to Dr. Climer. It was ordered through the VA. Send all billing to the VA.
