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.

I have been seeing Dr. Straka since I was VERY young..single digits young. I'm now about to be 30 and STILL will never see anyone else, even if my insurance gets dropped I would want to pay out of pocket (if possible) vs seeing someone else. My brother, dad, and I have been seeing Dr. Straka forever. For anyone saying he "rushes" his appointments, the man knows what he's talking about. And honestly, I've never felt rushed and any questions I've ever had..he answers every single one and ALWAYS gives multiple options to choose from that could work. I trust Dr.Straka with my life. He is very genuine and really does care about his patients.

Waited 30 minutes once in exam room to be seen. Rushed and gave 5 minutes of his time for the exam. Did not address our concerns of treatment. Kept asking us to return every 6 weeks for reassessment of acne treatment (excessive) just to check if antibiotic is working for acne. Pricey for 5 minute evaluation. Felt unimportant and felt as if I was waisting his time.

Excellent care
I travel many miles to see Dr. Straka. In addition to his expertise in dermatology he has great knowledge of diseases and explains how they can affect the skin. He looks at the whole person and shows compassion for his patients.

Highly recommended
Dr. Straka is just what you want in a dermatologist . . . knows about everything there is to know about skin issues, and provides just the right care to get rid of any problems. In addition to that, he is always friendly and professional, as is his entire office staff.

Excellent, I followed Dr.Stratka from the Brookfield clinic to his new in Waukesha. I find he puts you at ease, is not rushed and is skilled in his work. His staff is excellent also and everyone makes patient feel they have a personal interest in them.

Dr. Straka is a true advocate for the patient. I have seen him for the last 15 years intermittently, for various skin conditions and he has always been on target with his diagnosis and treatment. Definitely puts the patient first!

Dr Straka was the first dermotologist I’ve seen in over 20 years. My experience was excellent! He listened to what I needed, we covered many concerns all in one visit, and was very professional... not to mention, all of which happened to be on his birthday! After seeking dermatology services at 4 other providers because of using groupons or choosing locations closer to home, now I am returning back to Straka. He is the only dermatology service that has left me with such a positive impression!!!

Dr. Straka is the best derm in WI. He is kind and down to earth. He listens, and takes time to talk about the plan of treatment. His nurses are really good too and also spend time making sure you understand your condition and medications. All of his staff make you feel comfortable. Dr. Straka is the best!

I saw Dr. Straka 3 times over 6 years. I found most of the precancerous lesions most on my face. He always did a full body scan and I felt comfortable with him UNTIL...... I had a "scar" on my face, I irritated it, wouldn't heal so I saw a different derm as I also had a brother that died from melanoma. New Derm in the same clinic said "this is NOT a scar it HAS BEEN skin cancer all along"! Totally missed, now I have a 3 1/2 in. scar on my face. His focus was my face never even looked at this!

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Straka. As an adult with acne challenges, Dr. Straka has over the years taken time to listen, to learn and to offer various helpful approaches. Most recently, he directed me to a source offering reduced or free medications that have been effective in combination in treating some of my conditions. Very helpful.
