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.

I initially saw Dr Crabb when My Dr was out of the office for my knee. He was very kind and made me feel at ease. I returned 10 days later, same knee another shot. I felt great and was able to go on vacation soon after.A few months later, I needed a shot in my hip.Dr Crabb is gentle and I can tell that he likes helping people feel better.I highly recommend this wonderful Dr.

Archaic and dismissive
Dr. Crabb appeared to have his mind made up before stepping foot in the room. He clearly sides with the lawyers who augment his paycheck and neglects to listen to his patients without an already biased mindset. He does not keep up on current research and typical clinical presentations of common post-operative conditions. Dr. Crabb stated that topical medications, which have been proven to be effective, are "hocus pocus" and that you might as well rub a steak dinner on your arm. If you want to see a doctor who truly has your best interest in mind, stay away from Dr. Crabb.

Great Surgeon
Broke my elbow thru the joint & had to have hardware put in. Could not get my ROM back. My P.T. Terra worked on me for 9 months & finally recommended I see Dr Crabb. Dr Crabb opened my arm back up, broke up the scar tissue& took out the hardware. Best decision ever as I finally got my ROM back & no more aching when it rained. So glad my P.T. recommended this surgeon.
