Personal Pursuits
Destiny was meant for me and my fourth-grade friend, Karie. Twenty-seven years later, after completing our advanced degrees we became reacquainted through a unique series of events, and we decided to begin our life together. On-lookers jokingly said it would never work with both of us contributing two kitties to the union! Together, we have strong commitments to our family, friends, church, and adopted pets. We enjoy traveling, camping, remodeling our home, or just enjoying a good book together.
Dr. Klim is pleased to serve patients in the San Francisco, Santa Rosa, Sonoma, and Vallejo, California areas.
