Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The best!
I was to the point I couldn’t walk, and this man saved me! We didn’t get to talk much because I wasn’t his patient until I was admitted into the hospital after an ER visit. In The few minutes before my surgery we met I could tell he was a genuinely caring soul! Best Surgeon ever!

My pain was so bad it was difficult to do anything. i endured this for almost 5 years. I had several treatments to alleviate the problem, but nothing worked until I met Dr. Crawford. He explained my problem in detail so I knew exactly what was about to happen during the course of the surgery. I had the operation and have been pain free for 6 years. He is a true professional.

Dr. Crawford has performed 3 different surgeries on me. I am 110% completely satisfied with him. He is a very caring, concerned and knowledgeable orthopedic surgeon. I would not want for a better surgeon anywhere. I live approximately 100+ miles from his practice. I would travel to see him no matter the distance. A truly fine and superb physician. I can't say enough about my faith in him. If you dont have faith in your doctor's abilities, you don't have anything. I trust Dr. Crawford with his diagnosis and I feel safe putting my life within his knowledgeable and capable hand anytime.

Dt. Crawford is very personable. However, he didn't seem to have any idea how to treat the pinched nerve in my lumbar.

i had a bad back for years and finally i had to do something about it. I saw three different surgeons and chose Dr. Charles Crawford III. From our first consultation to the last visit of my hospital discharge he was a true professional that gave you the feeling that he really cared. He also has a great staff. from Becky in reception to Deb his scheduler to Tiffany his medical assistant. Everyone was available and prompt in answering my questions and concerns.

Excellent success with my back surgery in 2015. Recommended Dr. Crawford to 3 friends to date who have had successful surgeries as well! Wouldn't think of going anywhere else.
