They are both doctors, and they do everything in the office. We never had a problem getting information or making an appointment. They even helped us out on the week end a couple times. Also, during the whole time my Mom went to Dr Kraska, we never had any billing issues or administrative problems of any kind. Both Docs are really excellent, and they have plenty of time to devote to each patient. Each issue was fully addressed before we left. We never felt rushed. My mom is in her 80s and had numerous medical problems, including bone loss. Dr Kraska correctly diagnosed a vitamin D deficiency, and treating this helped mom maintain her bone density.

Very bad doctor. Bedside manner of a gnat. Not effective or up to speed on new and innovative treatments.
