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.

Very pleased with my referral to Dr. Kraman
I am a 59 year old male whom, at this stage in my life, finally required a referral to a Urologist. OMG... Fortunately, I was referred to Dr. David J. Kraman. Wow, the visit went so well....I had wasted a lot of time and unnecessary anxiety before seeing him today. Dr. Kraman was very easy to talk to, he listens very well, and he is obviously very experienced and connected amongst his peers. It's clear to me why Dr. Kraman would be a top doc in his field and he receives so many good reviews. Yes, while the length of time I had to wait to see him seemed crazy, i still believe it was well worth it at the end if the day. I feel lucky to be a new patient in Dr. Kraman's practice! Thank you for what you do Dr. Kraman!!

Dr Kraman is the best. Deals with you on a personal level and make you feel like you are his only concern. He got me to the right surgeon to have a very favorable surgery outcome. No second opinions needed when working with him.

I have had a bad experience with this doctor. He has a one track mind and seems to double talk. He does ignore studies and when he realizes he overlooked your health issue, he will refer you to another urologist. His staff is rude and Its seems he choses who he wants to help.

I have been a long time patient of Dr. Kraman (almost 20 years). He is without question the very best Dr. that I've had either primary or specialist. The level of care that one receives with Dr. Kraman and his very professional staff is excellent. Above all else, Dr. Kraman is passionate about the health and care of his patients. He has always been focused with a keen interest in my current health situation. I usually have questions written down for my visits and he is patient to fully answer each and every one. In this day and age, it seems the norm for doctors to focus on their computer screen and keyboard while in the exam room. Dr. Kraman in contrast, focuses on his patients and dictates the results of the exam and your current situation for your medical records and his analysis immediately after the exam is finished. This allows for 100% focus for you the patient. My questions to him have never been too much to ask and he always explains things fully. I

I’ve been with Dr. Kraman for 4 years. He found and diagnosed my bladder cancer immediately. He has been closely monitoring my cancer, and through surgery resolved the matter. His staff has been nurturing and attentive, always responding quickly to questions. I highly recommend Dr. Kraman.

Easily the most kind and compassionate doctor I've ever dealt with. He took care of my grandmother and I'd trust him to take care of any of my family and myself. He has a Russian language translator on staff which helped my grandmother really understand her condition and his plan for her care. 10/10 would visit again without hesitation.
