Providence PatientDr. Kelvin's' willingness to listen, explain things, and follow up with test results is superior. I can't remember the last time I've seen a doctor and felt so good.
Providence PatientDr klevens listens carefully to all questions and concerns, she explains every single step in what's happening during an exam visit. She makes you feel comfortable, respected and heard as a patient, and I genuinely can't stress just how valuable I find that in a doctor. The one time she had to leave for an emergency and I saw another doctor, I had a much less pleasant experience. I'd recommend dr klevens to anyone.

Providence PatientMy first time with this provider. A very good experience.
Providence PatientMy OB/GYN of 20 years died, so I needed a new one. Sara Klevens came highly recommended. I liked her very much and would recommend her. The only thing I didn't love was that the soonest appointment I was months away. Next time, I will be able to make an appointment earlier now that I know it takes months to get on her schedule.

Providence PatientDr Klevens is the best, I've sent several of my friends to her. Would highly recommend! The front desk staff could be a little more helpful in terms of wait times, though.
Providence PatientThe wait times at this provider are always extremely long. I've been going to Dr. Klevens for years and I absolutely love her. I think she is a fantastic doctor and she's the reason why I keep going back. However, the amount of time spent waiting always makes me thinking about changing providers...until Dr. Klevens comes in
Providence PatientDr. Klevens was able to see me in a timely manner and was sensitive to my needs.
Providence PatientDr. Klevens is great but the front desk staff is not very friendly. They don't acknowledge you when you arrive even if you are standing right in front of them. They still carry on their personal conversations with each other and then they will start speaking to you once they are done. Very unprofessional.
Providence PatientShe is wonderful. Someone in her office staff had a horrid cough and should have stayed home.
