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.

Thank you Dr.Kraus.
He was deliberate and focused. Compiling all the information from my Long term Sequelea from electrical injury was not easy and had overwhelmed and confused other doctors. He took his time and was very calm even when I was emotional. Thank you Dr.Kraus for recommending the care that saved my quality of life.

Dr Kraus has been my neurologist since 2002. He is an expert in diagnosis, guided by the careful observations and logic. His demeanor is correct and to the point. He is efficient, and I sense that he is not into unneeded small-talk.

My appt with Dr. Kraus was for Neuropathy diagnosis and treatment. He showed no patient awareness or concerns. His diagnosis analysis was very lazy and simply a procedure he endured. Dr. Kraus was most often dismissive of questions regarding treatment of Neuropathy even stating there was no definitive information in the last 100 years of what causes Neuropathy. His treatment plan was........work with your GP to improve general health. Dr. Kraus is seriously not recommended.

I found this Dr.’s assessment thorough and caring. He has a traditional philosophy of Medicine. This is a good thing, for the efficacy and cost effectiveness for the community. Not good for research and precision medicine. If you are scheduled to receive care from this physician knowThat you will receive excellent traditional care. And your needs and questions will be addressed on a standard level based on guides established. Chronic minor inconveniences are addressed and questioned.

This man represents all that is dysfunctional and reprehensible in medicine! His dimeanor is cold, severe, and utterly lacking in emotional intelligence. I found his scientific reasoning and deduction to be shockingly inferior to the other neurologists I've worked with. I have no faith in him as a doctor whatsoever and wonder how this disturbing person obtained the position he's in. I can only recommend to go elsewhere!

Not compassionate at all!!! Says he sympathized but by tone in his voice and expression on his face he is a liar! We waited 6months to see this dr....we were referred by another Nurologist to see him. The resident dr was more compassionate then him! He did a quick reflex Check, checked eyes,throat,breathing -he said he reviewed previous records and said there was nothing he could do! Wouldn't even refer us to the correct dr who could possibly help us!!!! 6MONTHS WAIT FOR NOTHING!!!
