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.

Acute gall bladder
Dr. Cronin did a difficult gall bladder surgery on me and the results have been excellent! I highly recommend Dr. Cronin and his NP, Carol. They have the ability to make you feel like YOU are their only patient. Very caring and concerned. Extremely knowledgeable. I would only go to Dr Cronin in the future now that I know how skilled a surgeon he is.

As a nurse of 40+ years, I am very discerning about my physicians. Dr Cronin is One of the best surgeons I have had the privilege of knowing. He not only Is very competent but also very kind. He is one of those physicians who sincerely cares. He is a perfectionist in the OR. He inspires trust. And on top of it all he uses good common sense even when maybe it goes against the typical. Can’t say enough good things about him.

Dr. Christopher Cronin is the BEST surgeon in the world! If it hadn’t been for him, Icwould have died 3 years ago. He was the ONLY surgeon that would operate on me that I had asked to, “Please, help me!” Thank you, Dr. Cronin, for saving my life! You ARE the BEST!!

I’ve had nothing but problems since my surgery with Dr Cronin. From his crass attitude that he threatened to drop me as a patient in immediate post surgery crisis, to unprofessional bedside manner. I am left far worse off than before I had surgery with Dr Cronin. I would not take even a pet to him for surgery period. He used outdated methods of treatment with me. I just warn you to take your time and do not use this man.

He removed my gall bladder over one year ago. He did a great job, checked up on me afterwards and was always polite and knowledgeable. I asked him about 30 questions before the procedure and he patiently answered all of them. It's been over a year and I never had any complications from the surgery. Very thankful, Great Doctor!
