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.

A wonderful doctor
Dr Krainacker is caring, compassionate, and truly listens. He is passionate about helping his patients achieve physical and mental health. With his help, I lost fifty pounds that I had gained after 44 years of 'dieting'. I love my new healthier lifestyle, and thank him so much.

Typical hospital-based healthcare. Get them in and get them out as fast as possible. Dr. K is an okay guy and knowledgeable, but part of the system that provides a rather mediocre service.

Dr. K is knowledgeable enough but does not seem as though he is interested in us. Appointment time was spent putting notes into his laptop as if charting is done on the fly. (Like visiting w/Teenager w/new phone) Unfortunately, he did not ask good questions and listen to our concerns. He seems to listen just enough to jump to his own conclusions and clack out notes before waiving the magic pharmaceutical wand and offering solutions in pill form.. Will not be seeing him again.

Always very happy with my appointments. He answers all of my questions and explains everything very clearly. I am wondering why he has a low rating on this website - very suspicious.
