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.

Dr Croushore is a great surgeon very thorough and kind . He has performed surgery on me 2 times and both times he has remained professional and courteous . Highly recommend

Best staff and doctors in my opinion!
I had an echo by a well educated young lady then saw Dr. Croushore. He has been my physician for many years and I have the utmost respect for him and his treatments.

Consultation only
Took my elderly father to consult for a newly discovered aneurysm. Dr Croushore was good at explaining what this meant and the guidelines for interventions. I would recommend him based on this first visit.

No, I would not recommend him to anyone. I have a thoracic aneurism. I have been seeing him for years. Last visit, he looked at my disc of the scan I had and said SEE YOU IN 2 YRS. the scan showed that my aneurism is close to a five. So no more Dr Croushore for me.
