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.

Best OB Around!
I have been seeing Dr. Kromhout for over 5 years. I just had my first child and Dr. K provided assurance throughout the whole process to ease any of first time pregnancy fears. He is patient, listens to your needs, and has a sense of humor to always keep the mood light. Would recommend him to anyone looking for an OB!

Would recommend to anyone!!
First time OBGYN appointment for an irregular menstrual cycle. Dr Kromhout explained my situation in great detail, and helped me understand WHAT was going on, and is going to work to figure out WHY. Seriously, one of the best doctors I have seen. I felt educated and at ease after my appointment. Wonderful physician that is fantastic with patients.

Great Care
Great care. Always patient, kind and listens to your concerns. He explains things well and doesn’t make you feel bad for asking questions. He doesn’t act rushed to leave the room even though it is a busy office.

I have been "seeing" Dr. Kromhout for 6 years, but I have only ever gotten to actually see the Dr. once. All other appointments have been with nurses, most of whom have given me some of the worst, most blasé health advice I've ever received. I have scheduled 4 appointments with the Dr. himself, and 3 of those got cancelled at the last minute. The other only didn't get cancelled because it was a follow-up after I was in the ER. I feel as though his practice is centered around pregnant women, so if you are solely going for gyno purposes, I'd recommend you go elsewhere. All of my appointments have been rushed, and nobody there has taken my health concerns seriously. I was very concerned about ovarian cysts & PCOS after an episode that put me in the ER, and Dr. Kromhout looked at one ultrasound and refused to consider the matter further. I've always felt unwelcome going there and will be switching gynos now that I have better insurance.
