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.

Successful Pulmonary Vein Ablation to treat AFIB
Dr. Krainik is an excellent doctor and technician. Heart procedures can be frightening so I researched the procedure thoroughly before choosing Dr. Krainik. He provided a complete explanation of the procedure and risks involved. I believe his technique is state-of-the-art.

Bad experience
Dr Krainik left my wife with a hematoma the size of a fist from a procedure he performed. He assigned the care to his nurse practitioner instead of immediately calling in a vascular surgeon. It took 1 year for the lump to go away. Zero stars!

My high school aged son became dysfunctionally Non-24 immediately after his first cardiac ablation procedure in 2013, performed by Dr. Krainik at Missouri Baptist Hospital. He almost couldn't complete his last semester in high school - we had to bring in a homebound teacher. His college plans have been obliterated (ACT score 95%+). Years of medication trial and error has given only repeated hope and disappointment. Feeling that his life was pointless, he just ATTEMPTED SUICIDE! -- AVOID!!!

Dr. Krainik performed an ablation on me two days ago. He did a great job. He answered all questions I had and explained everything very good. Everyone at MO Baptist hospital was so nice. I highly recommend him.

Great bedside manner, willing to explain and have a conversation with patients and communicate. I failed to provide prior medical records that were needed and he still spoke with me and decided on a course of action; I really appreciated the patience and willingness to work with me since I traveled quite far to come in. Also very easy to schedule appointments, was able to get in as a new patient within a few weeks of calling.
