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.

Simply put, there is no better doctor/surgeon than Dr. Ashcraft. He cares, he's smart, he's thorough, he's exceedingly he's personable, and, more important, he's exceptionally talented. And all of that goes for his amazing staff, especially his nurse practitioner, Emily. You won't be in better hands anywhere.

He is not personable. Doesn’t want to get to know you, doesn’t seem caring about you and what you are going through. Nurse was same way. She was very dismissive when I tried speaking with her and even worse when I emailed. I find they are there for just a job, and not their patients.

Dr. Ashcraft and his team at KU exceeded all of my expectations, from the moment I met him I knew I wanted him to do my surgery. I have been fighting diverticulitis for over 10 years and he really put me at ease from the moment I met him. Thank you Dr. Ashcraft and your team.

Great surgeons don’t have to have a great bedside manner. But when they do, you’ve hit the jackpot. Dr. Ashcraft is one of those surgeons.

Dr Ashcroft did a awesome job on my cancer. I lost some ‘parts’ but it had to be done. I didn’t think I would make it but I’m not a quitter. I enjoy my visits with him. I would go back to him for any cancer concerns. Thank you Dr Ashcraft

After six years of increasing depression over my medical issues, Dr. Ashcraft turned my life around. He is kind and compassionate-the best of the best! Both he and his great staff is unhurried but most of all caring. He helped me find a way!

Dr. Ashcraft is my lifesaver and I'm so happy he didn't turn away or give up on me like the other doctors did. He was polite, listened to my concerns, and never gave up! Saved my life, took away the excruciating pain I was in for almost 5 years and I'm forever grateful!!!
