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.

Better than his associate Dr Thomas who didn't want to reverse my ostomy

Reverse ostomy surgery – Dec 05, 2021

Dr. Crapko is man of few words, but an excellent surgeon. I went in for a hernia repair, it turned into something different and he took care of it perfectly. This is my 3rd gut surgery (for gynecological issues) and i have had the least pain with his technique.

I know he was trying to do his job but with me having this major surgery he should’ve been more compassionate about how I feel and I don’t think he expressed that

Referred from my Gastroenterologist and Oncologist, I found Dr. Crapko to be professional, supportive and excellent at what he does. Most surgery went well and uncomplicated. My post surgical care was excellent (Renown) with ample visits from the surgeon. Communication was good. I felt in very good hands.
