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.

Would Never Recommend!
This was one of the worst healthcare providers that I have yet to encounter since moving to CA. He ordered an MRI of my hand after seeing my Xray along with diagnosis of Carpel Tunnel. In his follow up report he wrote that I was a 'HE' and the MRI was for my Left Hand, which is insane! When a doctor spends 5 mins with you and I am clearly a 'She' and it was my Right Hand not the left! How could I ever trust his judgement! I did not go for the MRI, it was only another way for him to bill my Insurance for something that I did not need and it would cost $400 out of pocket! Very Disappointing!

Dr. Grafe spent approx. 7 min with me. Didn't respond to questions or statements, but rather told me to come back in two weeks for a cortizone shot if the pain wasn't better. Didn't explain anything about arthritis. Take away: seniors are annoying even though the frequency of their doctor visits probably pay most doctors salaries....

Fantastic surgeon! My operation went exactly as described, with very little post-op pain, excellent care, and amazing efficiency from all the staff.

Dr. Grafe saved my daughter's life. She had flesh eating disease. He operated on her 7 times in 13 days. He kept at it until he stopped the disease. Sunday morning, Saturday night. He talked specialists into treating her for rehab and reconstruction. He is a true hero. This dad is forever grateful.

Dr. Grafe is an incredible surgeon. He operated on my hand and I have to hunt to find where he stitched. Beautiful job. The office is very friendly, and I have been told by my medical-field friends that Dr. Grafe is the best hand surgeon in the area! I agree.

Doctor Grafe said my hand surgery would be complicated, because he had to screw two bones in my hand together. The surgery was a success and I can work with my hand again. He did a fantastic job period!
