Providence Patient
The care provider is very knowledgeable, very competent, and a fairly good listener, but the care provider could be a still better listener I believe.Perhaps the care provider is reluctant to say all that they are thinking or perhaps the care provider does not like to go into long and more detailedExplanations.

Dr. Krause is brilliant dictor can't find better.Usually his nurses don't make it easy to take all the tests. I am glad I did not have the last nurse I had giving me tests with blood hair that was there. The other nurse was easier to take tests with. She does test really fast. When I go there I hope for a kind nurse to do eye tests. Doctor excellent!

I have always been extremely happy with Dr. Krauss. However a couple of months ago, I tried 4 times to reach him by phone and twice via Mychart, all to no avail. I have to assume this was the staff's fault. Either way, it was unacceptable.
