She did not rush me. I told her about my experience at [ ] where I was catheterized 4 to 6 times after my cyscospy from Dr. [ ]. I highly recommend her to anyone who has a prostate or urinary problem. This is only my first visit with Dr. Krambeck but I would much rather travel 80 miles to see her than 2 miles to see Dr. [ ]. The pain I went through with Dr. [ ] cyscospy is undescribable.
