I chose Dr. Kleiner because of his 'supposed' expertise, and his offer of less (non) invasive posterior procedure that would yield same results as more invasive (anterior/posterior). I am an avid runner/biker and so his procedure was a 'no brainer'. He performed a Level 2 spinal fusion (L4-L5-S1). After 5 months it was discovered that S1 pedicle screws were loose, and L5-S1 was diagnosed as non-union (pseudarthrosis). I accepted this, knowing that the more levels fused, the greater the chance of this happening. Upon revision surgery (8/2012) of removing ALL hardware (rods/screws) posteriorly, he re-fused L5-S1 anteriorly using plate, cage, etc. and supposedly determined that L4-L5 was adequately fused. Therefore, he did not substitute any instrumentation offering any permanent support. Prior CT indicated otherwise, with his colleagues (spine surgeons/radiologists) confirming L4-L5 as NOT being fused/healed. The email conversation below is a clear admission of his surgical negligence:

April 2013
Dr.,
Sorry to be a pain and rehash my fusion, but can you please tell me your impression of the status of each (i.e. fully fused, partially fused)? I am getting some conflicting opinions. (another spine surgeon viewed CT and requested MRI).
L4-L5 ?
L5-S1 ?

Response:
Your fusion is best assessed with CT and X/R. Both levels are fused.
Jeff

In November of 2013 another CT was taken with radiologist reporting: 'there is no evidence of solid bony fusion of the operative levels'.

Response:
I reviewed your CT with Dr. X, one of the neuroradiologists. He thought the L5-S! level was healed and that the L4-5 level was probably not.
Jeff

So am I fused/healed or not? With all that said, I MUST question/challenge his so-called level of expertise. Also, with regard to radiographs, 'a picture is worth a thousand words'.

The damage was done and I have remained in pain, with a greatly diminished quality of life ever since. Upon seeking legal representation in/around the Denver area, I quickly learned that there were conflicts of interest with every reputable law firm. He is obviously in their ‘back pocket’ as an expert witness.
Unfortunately, he did me more harm than good, and I would NOT recommend Kleiner!

It is obvious that their office is cleaned regularly. It was fantastic. I was so impressed with what was accomplished after just one visit; I left feeling extremely satisfied. I was completely at ease during my appointment here. They went to great lengths to make sure I was completely relaxed and comfortable the entire time. I've been places before where they were argumentative and angry, so I was nervous that I would encounter that here as well. Instead, they were very calm and understanding the entire time. I could tell they really care about everyone who visits them. One of the first things I noticed about this business was the level of detail and attention to make the building handicap-accessible. Even the bathrooms were designed to be accessible with doors wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs and grab bars in the stalls. You could tell they really made an effort to accommodate people with all different needs.

Dr. Kleiner is a wonderful listener and gave me all the time I needed. He and his staff made sure every single question I had was answered, and are always available if I think of any more questions I want answered. The staff is very friendly and attentive. My surgery ended up being more complicated than anticipated, and Dr. Kleiner went the extra mile to figure out how to solve my problem, a problem that was overlooked by a previous surgeon. I feel very fortunate to have received the care and expertise I've encounted with this group. Follow up care and accessibility after surgery has been great as well.
