Raymond Klug, MD

Dr. Klug is an amazing surgeon. I had one bone sheared in 2 and the other bone was splintered from a fall from the deck of a boat. He repaired the bones with 9 screws and a plate and today I am back to normal and it as if nothing had ever been broken. I am ready to put on my Stilettos and go dancing. The man is a genius. Dr. Klug is one of the few doctors that takes his time and talks to you as well as listens. Marlena, Dr. Klug’s assistant is incredible. She is sweet and prompt when you call for Dr. Klug there is a callback instantly.

Dr. Klug did an outstanding job on my son’s collarbone. He was easy to talk too and provided great follow-​up. The surgery could not have gone better!

if there was ever a doctor i feared — its dr klug. waited 5 hours to be berated and felt so very… sad.

Clean office, friendly staff. My mom

I had experienced numbness on my right index and middle finger which I strongly believed it was due to my neck/​shoulder pain and specifically in the C6 cervical spinal area. I wanted to see the first available orthopedic doctor since Dr. Ahnn was booked up until one week later. I took xrays on my neck and shoulder that day. However, Dr. Klug reviewed them and not only they told me that the xrays on my neck and shoulder were negative, he also told me that since I’ve only experienced the numbness for 2 weeks, an MRI or an EMG wouldn’t reveal anything. However, when he did some diagnostic test with my wrist and my numbness started flaring up ONLY WHEN I TILTED MY NECK that would force the numbness issue in the first place, he told me that I had CTS (carpal tunnel syndrome) despite feeling absolutely no pain and had full range of motion on my right wrist. So he prescribed me 800mg of Motrin and had me take this 3x a day. I was pretty furious afterwards and asked to schedule a 2^nd opinion with another doctor in the same exact orthopedic clinic (Dr. Duke Ahn of who I highly recommend). Luckily, there was something that opened up 2 days after my appointment with Dr. Klug. So I immediately took that appointment with Dr. Ahnn.
On my appointment with Dr. Ahnn to get a 2^nd opinion, I also decided to take xrays on my right hand to make sure that the CTS was either legit or not. Dr. Ahnn looked at the same exact xrays that Dr. Klug looked at and immediately saw some misalignment around the C6 cervical vertibrae that was pinching a nerve that was causing the finger numbness. He looked at the hand xrays and found nothing that was wrong. He immediately asked if I wanted to take an MRI to see the severity and I did refuse only because I had an idea of how bad it was and thought that 3 – 4 weeks of Physical Therapy should put me into the road to recovery. He also did the CTS related tests to see if it may be also a pinched nerve near the carpal ligament near my hand and specifically told me not to raise my neck where it would increase the numbness. The CTS tests I did showed no signs whatsoever. I just completed my 1^st week of physical therapy and I am clearly showing signs that my numbness in my right index and middle finger is significantly decreasing.
Bottom line is basically to avoid Dr. Klug at all costs. If you really like this clinic, you’re much better off waiting for another doctor in the same orthopedic clinic or to a totally different orthopedic clinic. I would’ve rather have Dr. Jekyll examine my injury than Dr. Klug. Had I went with Dr. Klug’s advice, I probably would’ve had a cortizone shot in my hand, then surgery on my hand that wasn’t even affected in the first place, and still would’ve experienced the same symptoms plus possibly a few other ailments because of the high dosage of Motrin he recommend me to take.
