Dr. Andrew Vladimirov Kriegel, MD

Despite having back pain for 10 years due to large boobs, apparently the real reason I have pain is from being overweight. Never asked about when I started having back problems, which is when I was 70 lbs lighter and had DD boobs. Did not even let me explain that my "large stomach" is partially because I have PCOS or that due to having large boobs since Freshman year of HS my back has over compensated for my core. Pretty much mocked my lack of knowledge on breast reduction surgery and then told me to loose weight... as I am on Adipex and eating roughly 700 calories a day and exercising every other day. I would never recommend him to anyone... especially if you are at all self conscious.

Dr Kriegel and his staff have been nothing but kind considerate friendly compassionate and efficient. He is very knowledgeable and very caring, one of the kindest doctors I have ever met. My husband has had a very unusual case through no fault of Dr Kriegel's he had quite a mess to clean up from a previous surgery from another surgeon, it is an ongoing process but it is going quite well. I could not ask for a kinder more compassionate knowledgeable surgeon as Dr Kriegel. Also I have been a nurse for over 40 years and I have met a lot of physicians and he is in the top five.

I went for a consultation and he came off VERY rude. I’m no longer comfortable with moving forward with my surgery being done by him. I’ll be going elsewhere.

Not the first Dr. I've seen about my condition. Confirmed diagnosis by all previous. I believe that he didn't want to help me so he said it is all in my head. I have nothing wrong. Bad bed side manner. Huge EGO. He's better than me. I left there very upset.

He came across as very rude and made snide remarks during the entire process.

when you look up your name you see that you are a doctor. I do nothing but write a review that he has my name

Dr Kriegel, Ease to talk to, good bed side manner, spend lot of time with me explaining my surgery, I like his promptness with time, courteous staff and my follows up visit was very good, Also I will send anyone to Dr Krirgel 0 to 10 I gave him a 10

I came to doctor kriegel for a second opinion for sx. He gave me a new approach to the sx i was looking for and am scheduled for it currently. He has an amazing office staff of two funny young ladies. All were very courteous and kept me laughing. I feel very secure in having my sx here in the near future.

I highly recommend Dr Kriegel because he is extremely knowledgeable, professional and has excellent hands, which is very important for a plastic surgeon. I came for the second opinion after being treated in the University settings. University Doc recommended the skin graft for my leg problem, but Dr. Kriegel was able to avoid this very unpleasant procedure and closed the wound. I was very happy. He saved me a lot of time and unnecessary worries. The office stuff is great and when I needed he returned my phone calls promptly.

If you like a straight answer and not a run for your money! He's def the doctor for you. There is no sugar coating with him and his patients.
