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.

Awful
Disorganized. Poor communication. Arrogant. Does not accept responsibility for her complications. Relies on her residents and assistants who don't seem to know what she wants or is thinking. Can't think of anything good about my care under her in the hospital. She seemed good in the preop telehealth visit but afterwards was poor.

Dr Krambeck is the BEST for HoLEP Proc
I am a 69 year old, from near Peoria, Illinois, extremely healthy & fit man who has had BPH for a number of years. Unfortunately the Urology Medical Care in the Peoria area is currently quite limited with Qualified, Experienced, Board Certified Urologists, who what I would consider to be “GOOD UROLOGISTS”! I had Laser PVP Prostate Procedure finally performed in Fall of 2021, after having to wait four months for surgery with a semi-retired, highly qualified urologist. I had self-cath myself for four months for residual urine. A couple months later had constricture in bladder neck - full time catheter for 3 weeks before surgery. In late 2023 had to wait 6 weeks to get a cysto exam. Told needed TURP or HoLEP! Only one urologist in Peoria does HoLEP, but NOT Board Certified and limited cases per year - NO WAY SURGERY ON ME!! TURP: 50yr old Barbaric Surgery! MS Degree in Medical Field — found World HoLEP Expert in Chicago, Dr Krambeck! My HoLEP went great! She is loving & caring physician!

Dr. Krambeck saved my husband’s life. He had an appointment with her in April of 2022 after 10 months of continuous bladder and prostate infections. She scheduled him for a HoLept procedure at Northwestern Medicine on May 9. He felt better within hours after the procedure. A year later, with no infections, he has his life again. Dr. Krambeck is a wonderful, kind, skilled urologist. So glad we found her.

Terrible! We did not even meet her until my husband was prepped for surgery. We drove 3 hours from home for a consultation and she sent an associate to meet with us. At no time were we told that she had an emergency. The associate tried to "grab her" but was unable to do so.

Dr. Krambeck is a life saver. She performed lazer lithotripsy on my wife who had stones which caused repeat uti’s which was successful. I would definitely give her the highest marks for her capabilities. We are very fortunate to have her practicing in Indianapolis

HOLEP procedure was perfect. I sought her skills and the surgical team was top tier in nation. Plus her followup response to my doctors in Little Rock has provided me extra care attention I would not have received if not for her request to local doctors. Very skilled physician.

She is simply the best. Wonderful bedside manner and she is a rockstar at removing kidney stones. Her staff really listened to me and it is no wonder she is one of the top kidney stone doctors in the nation. So thankful to have her in Indy!

Absolutely wonderful. Not only is she a gifted surgeon able to perform the complex HoLep prostate surgery but she is a wonderful person. I had the surgery a noon on a Wednesday and was out of the hospital and on the way home by 9:30 the next morning. Recovery was uneventful and the results were wonderful. I would recommend her unequivocally.

Dr. Krambeck is the worst urologist I have ever seen! She wasn't caring at all and absolutely had no interest in my pain or what was causing it. She did no bloodwork to check my kidney function. She lied to my Rheumatologist doctor And said I refused to go to pain management. I did not refuse, I had already seen a pain management doctor. I have Lupus which attacks your organs. This is a huge concern for me but obviously it wasn't for her! She just chalked it up to back pain, again not 1 test!

Specifically sought her out for the HoLEP. Entire experience from first office appointment through 90 day post-op appointment has been nothing but wonderful! Knew exactly what I was in for during the entire process. Highly recommend the HoLEP, if it's a viable option for you. But seeking out Dr Krambeck, due to her experience, was most crucial to my decision. Mayo Clinic and it's hospitals really do offer superior experience and care!
