“Dr Klemt is a miraculous healer. I've tried acupuncture before and didn't like it. He takes the time to listen, reviews your whole body, finds the problems and with just a few targeted needles, the pain is gone. He also uses magnets, aligned with specific points, and somehow before long, i feel like I'm floating. Highly recommend, especially if nothing else has helped. He's different, in the best way. ”

I had a very good experience with Dr. Kempton. He is easy to talk to, listens well and seems very knowledgeable overall.

The treatment Dr Klempt provides is particular to me and my body’s needs, not just generic acupuncture.

Once again, I went to a doctor that was supposed to be under my coverage and was confirmed with no other need to follow up yet after I got to the appointment and started to fill out the forms The doctor informed me that he does not take Medicare, so why is he on Zocdoc and why aren’t these doctors Requirements vetted before hand?
I spent half my day around this appointment and interestingly he didn’t even try to encourage me to consider paying out-of-pocket, which I thought was strange since I arrived at the appointment and had answered most of the questions regarding pre-screening. I told him I would contact you and let you know that he doesn’t take insurance and I don’t know at what point he decided he didn’t or he did at one time. I’m not sure what the previous history was so perhaps he is using your platform to get new patients. I have no idea, but it was not a good experience

September 3, 2025Jesse F.Verified patient
Very effective and informative. So many mystery aches and pains resolved quickly and others, better understood, so I can work on resting and repairing. Very balanced and perceptive. Tim understands that there is no "one size fits all," that different things work for different people, at different times, for different reasons. His demeanor and energy is very soothing and uplifting. I"ve been dealing with Long Covid, POTs and perimenopause. Sometimes I feel like there's more symptoms than I can keep up with and don't even know which one is caused by what. Tim was undaunted. I left my first appointment feeling better than I have in months. Highly recommend! Also, his fee is very low, best value in NYC.
June 3, 2025Kathryn C.Verified patient
What a profound and transformative experience… Dr. Klemt is knowledgeable, intuitive and compassionate. I left the session feeling relief that I haven’t felt in a long time. Thank you!
May 5, 2025Alla K.Verified patient
Dr Klemt was extremely knowledgeable and patient to my needs. I've been to PT was slow and incremental changes, however one session with Dr Klemt, I felt such a huge difference. Looking forward to my healing journey and can't wait to be back to 100% again with Dr Klemt's help!
Less than 1 year agoChristine C.Verified patient
It was my first acupuncture visit, and Timothy’s manner really put me at ease. He explained everything he’d be doing as we went along so there were no surprises. The office is soothing, clean, organized and comforting. Most importantly, the pain I came in with was almost completely eliminated by the skillful work he did on me.
February 20, 2025Karl L.Verified patient

A really helpful treatment experience! I won't be able to return as was suggested/as I thought, but it felt like a worthwhile service that I'd want to continue. More than with other doctors, I felt like my upper back/shoulder/neck pain issues were being considered holistically and in relation to other parts of my body. Was really surprised by some immediate relief I felt in arms and legs.
October 5, 2023Selorm Q.Verified patient
Excellent in with pain left with no pain
July 14, 2023Joseph C.Verified patient
Dr Tim is extremely diligent and thoughtful with his treatments. He is particularly knowledgable about allergies and dermatology and in a short space of time I’ve seen improvements way beyond anything I have seen going to regular dermatology/allergy clinics. He genuinely wants to help people and makes you feel extremely comfortable if not already familiar with acupuncture.
June 13, 2023Roderick M.Verified patient
Dr. Klemt is fantastic! He's extremely thorough, thoughtful, and inquisitive. He takes the time needed to make progress or solve problems and is always looking for ways to improve your health holistically. I'm happy to be seeing him multiple times a week while we work through my issues. I highly recommend!
April 19, 2023Kristina P.Verified patient
Amazing experience, I am not fond of needles but this acupuncture treatment is the only thing that works on my back. Dr. Klemt realigned my L5 and several ribs, which alleviated any pain I was experiencing in my lower back and shoulders. I could bend over to put on socks and walk comfortably, without any pinches, immediately after my appointment. It was like magic. Highly recommend! Also the acupuncture itself is relatively painless … so I’ll definitely be returning.
February 20, 2023Leah S.Verified patient
Amazing experience; prob one of the best with an Accupuncturist. I would highly recommend Dr. Klemt for any and all holistic medicine needs. I am excited to continue to work with him and improve my mind/body balance and harmony!

Everything about the visit was amazing. Not only did he help improve my back or addressed the issues I went in for, he was attentive and I feel like I have a brand new body now. Thank you so much.
I will recommend him to everyone and go back.

It was interesting I never got acupuncture before- painful, uncomfortable but the outcome was very noticeable and helpful. Mr Klemt Was kind and professional.
October 15, 2019Paul M.Verified patient
Dr. Klemt is amazing. I've been to a few different acupuncture places and he is by far the most knowledgeable in holistic practices as well as modern science. I've been several times now. Recommended my coworker who has been going.

Wonderful first appointment for my shoulder, nerve problems. Tim was helpful, really committed to helping me. I highly recommend him.
June 6, 2019James V.Verified patient
My left pinky finger was totally stiff and would not bend. One treatment and it is working normally for over two years. Shoulder pain was also relieved with one treatment and mobility has improved over the last three months.

I have experienced pain on my right foot for many months now, to the point of thinking I'd have to accept the pain as part of my life. I previously visited a podiatrist who seemed to have low investment and little interest in my case. I left that appointment feeling little hope for the foot exercises I'd been rotely prescribed.
After finding Dr. Klemt's website I had renewed hope. He was as authentic, passionate and encouraging; someone who you can tell approaches their patients with attentiveness and investment.
Walking is one of my favorite hobbies, and it was one of the things I missed most during the months I was dealing with my chronic foot pain. After my first appointment, I was able to walk all the way from Midtown to my Greenwich Village — totally painlessly!
Since my appointment, I have been feeling hopeful and encouraged; I have already recommended Dr. Klemt to a friend. It goes without saying that I am looking forward to my next appointment!
May 10, 2019Miguel R.Verified patient
Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture were unfamiliar to me. I had never before experienced this medicine. What I did know was that I had sought out years of different treatments and nothing, yet, had relieved my back pain successfully. I was referred to Dr. Klemt by a friend. Not only was Dr. Klemt knowledgable about the origins of my back pain, but he was clear and thorough about how we would alleviate the pain. Being frightened of needles, Dr. Klemt used gentle and effective needling. After two treatments of acupuncture, I began to feel hopeful that I could return to a living a pain-free life. His diagnosis was not like any other explanations I received from other Western MDs. Yes, I had displaced discs and my Arthritis was real but I wasn't aware that I had a displaced shoulder. After three treatments of Acupuncture, I am pain free. The treatments were effective! Eight years of physical therapy, suggestions of getting corrective surgery and shots to numb the pain had not accomplished what Dr. Klemt did for me. I visited Dr. Klemt two years later for digestive issues, and he illuminated various allergies that were causing reactions to my body. Today, I am running, doing yoga, and smiling again. Acupuncture and herbal medicine gave me back the ability to celebrate my life again. I recommend Dr. Klemt because he is incredibly thorough and effective. He has a real passion for this work and it's noticeable.

Dr. Klemt resolved my Bell's Palsy in just four treatments! After the first treatment I was able to blink my eye, I was able to chew again and there was a dramatic improvement in the muscles in my face. Dr. Klemt was easy to relate to, and VERY clear on how he was going to treat me. He was able to give me back my beautiful smile. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND him and his friendly practice.

FANTASTIC. Dr. Klemt is an incredibly knowledgeable, skilled and caring health professional. The treatments I receive immediately alleviate pain (from a number of injuries I am recovering from) as well as he has truly improved my chronic shoulder & neck pain. Highly recommend.
