I had the privilege of being seen by Dr. Kratz at the VA Medical Center women's clinic. I suffer from anxiety but he made me feel comfortable and confident. He truly listened and was concerned about my whole health. I am so very thankful the VA was able to bring in such a caring physician.

If you are looking for a doctor for your gynecological needs you have found the very best one. Dr. Kratz is not only an amazing OB/GYN, he is the most amazing physician who looks at the WHOLE health of a patient. From delivering my children to guiding me through the chapters of menopause, he has always given the utmost care and knowledge. Dr. Kratz has great persistence in finding answers to any health needs that arise. The caring and kindness that he shows is unlike any other doctor I have. I highly recommend him, he is simply the best.

Dr. Kratz is fabulous! I've been going to him for 8+ years for routine exams & treatment for fibroids. He performed a uterine ablation with wonderful results & then years later, a hysterectomy for other medical issues. He is professional & serious when necessary, but has a wonderful comedic personality to make those intense moments less stressful. I am an RN that drives over an hour to go to him, just because of his amazing ability to make me feel less embarrassed. I recommend him to all of my friends & family.

He is very good about listening and working with you. Especially when you have an atypical issue. Doesn't deliver babies so usually on time for office appointments. Office is very clean and well run.

I have been a patient for over 14 years. He has always been very thorough and I appreciate that. Great "bedside" manner.
