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.

What a great caring doctor. Takes his time with me and makes sure I understand what is going on. I have switched my entire family to doctor Straub. Would definitely recommend this doctor !

Great doctor and very thorough. My whole family goes to dr Straub. Recommended this office and this doctor if you want personalized care. My mom and dad absolutely adore dr Straub and I believe doc Straub has kept them alive and well. For so many years. They are both well into there 80s. Thank you doctor Straub

Do not go here. Missed my mom’s stage iv lung cancer. Negligent and rude staff. Would never recommend to anyone. They totally took advantage of my parents seeing the best in people and screwed them. Worst doctor’s office ever.

Dr. Straub has a pleasant bedside manner, but my experiences with him have been negative. He shows clear discomfort discussing female reproductive health issues. In addition Dr. Straub prescribed medicines inappropriately. Once, he ignored my history of low blood sugar and prescribed a migraine medicine known to cause low blood sugar. Later, he renewed an anti-depressant medication at half my accustomed dose. Both events resulted in expensive hospitalizations.
