He was horrible from the start! I had never met him prior to the appointment and hope I never have to again! His staff called me every 15 minutes to schedule an appointment, and when i finally called back the receptionist was RUDE. The day of my appointment the nurse was incredibly rude, I waited 45 minutes to sit in the room for another 20 minutes. When he finally came in, he was INCREDIBLY condescending, and very impersonal. Following the exam, his nurse FAILED to follow the instructions she was given, and to make matters worse, used a product which was CLEARLY indicated that I have an allergy to. I wouldn't take my gold fish to be treated by anyone in his office!

He was horribly short and condescending, his nurse was rude and failed to follow his instructions, and I'm pretty sure I woke up the receptionist from her afternoon nap. Never again

I had an emergency gall bladder removal yesterday performed by Dr. Draeger. He explained everything to me thoroughly and made me feel very comfortable with him. He was professional,yet friendly. I would definitely pick Dr. Draeger again for any surgery I may need in the future.

I went to Dr. Draeger to have my gallbladder removed and I have absolutely no complaints. I never had to wait more than a few minutes for an appointment, his staff was very friendly and helpful and he took time to explain everything to me and answered all my questions. He visited me right before the surgery to check on me and make sure I was ready. His nurse was great with all my calls after surgery and at my follow up he took time to review all my results and explain everything to me, I never felt rushed. He has an excellent bedside manner.
