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.

Great visit
Dr Cruse was very comforting in his care. He answered all my questions with great detail. He gave suggestions for current therapy that needed adjustment. I would highly recommend him.

Disappointed
Dr. Cruce seemed like a pretty nice guy but really didn’t care a lot about my issues. On my follow-up he was looking at the wrong ankle, he told me there was nothing I could about my hammer toe (not true), and clearly did not have time to answer any questions I had. He blurted out what I needed to do and walked out of the room. I would not recommend him to anyone, sadly. He needs to hear this. He did not get back with me on my x-ray results. I had to call their office 3 times to get them. They were having computer problems and his nurse had to write everything down for me on a piece of paper. Just not impressive.

Dr. Cruce has been my doctor for a while now. He has always been direct. He takes time to explain & answers questions. A very good doctor.
