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.

Excellent Results
My husband was in debilitating pain from his spinal stenosis. He was in constant pain. Dr. Kraus performed a nerve block and his pain was 99% gone!!! We know it will likely come back but we have faith in Dr. Kraus. My husband had an office visit 2 weeks after the procedure. We found Dr. Kraus listened, he asked questions, WE asked questions and he answered everything in a way we could understand. Dr. Kraus sees a lot of patients in a day but he doesn't overschedule....and we didn't feel rushed at all. I will add that everyone on his staff is friendly and helpful as well. We highly recommend him.

Dr. Kraus is an excellent doctor. He is known for his harsh bedside manner. Having had three procedures done by him, my opinion is, he is a genius. I left out of his office feeling like he could have done my procedure blindfolded. That speaks volumes to me and I could not care less how "nice" he is. I am not there to have my ego stroked, I'm there because of chronic pain. What he does is serious, he is not rude at all, simply straight to the point. That's my jam! I would absolutely recommend anyone suffering with pain to him.
