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.

First visit, Very pleased
Dr. Craft is very personable and easy to talk to. He explains things well. He gives you a chance to talk also. His nurse practitioner is great.

Personable and professional
Dr Craft sat and looked me eye to eye and asked me about my problem! Listened without interruption and then explained exactly what he saw on mm MRI and my options. Did not rush and answered all questions.

I do not recommend for meniscus tear surgery
I was appointed Dr. Craft after I tore my meniscus in both knees at work. Before I could go up and down stairs with no problem. After I had popping and pain. After a MRI was done Craft determined I needed surgery. He also stated I have a little arthritis in my knee that would be shaved down a little. I have never had a surgery to repair anything body part so I didn’t know what expect, how to know when had healed correctly. After surgery I was placed on ice and pressure machine. I noticed the swelling in my knees never went down. I requested for longer rental of the machine but Craft office could not get it. I was given physical theropy inwhich I had no guidance to know when I needed to stop or continue. I was lost and confused with no advice from my assigned doctor who I barely saw through the entire process. Just a nurse practitioner. When I challenge the issue he claimed I agreed to stop physical Theropy. This isn’t true. It has been 2 years, I am still swelling & in pain.

Dr. Craft was WONDERFUL with our 15 year old daughter. She has struggled with Osgood-Schlatter in both knees for a full year. Dr. Craft took time to sit and listen and really talk to our girl, and then talk her through his treatment plan and reassure her about his expectations for her future.

Knee injury.
Doc was GREAT ! Sat down on the edge of the exam table and talked to me not AT me. That in itself was priceless !! I would highly recommend him to anyone with a knee issue.

“I can tumble again”!!
Dr. Craft was an excellent surgeon for our daughters torn ACL. She injured it in a cheer accident and was unable to enjoy the one activity she loved. Dr. Crafts experience and wisdom lead to a full recovery and we are grateful for his care of our daughter.

Not going back
Dr. Craft did not, in my opinion, provide me with any options to discover the reason for my hip issues. He claimed it was not his area and it was outside his scope without saying why or what could be done. I left extremely disappointed and won’t be going back.

Exactly what I needed
I had a bad car accident over a year ago that ultimately left my leg dangling and near amputated. Fortunately I got to keep my leg- but was told I would basically suffer the rest of my life with surgeries and pain. I had 3 surgeries within a year. I went back for a checkup and was told I needed another- but my normal surgeon wouldn’t do it, so he led me to Dr. Craft. He performed my 4th surgery and did a phenomenal job and feels strongly that I will go back to my normal quality of life. He is so kind and explains everything very simply and to the point. He doesn’t rush through my appointment and will answer any questions I have. My initial appointment with him was 2 hours because he wanted to make sure he took care of EVERYTHING. I wish I would have gone to him the first time. He’s awesome and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone.
