She walked into the room and knew more about my medical history than any other doctor I have seen in the past. She didn't sit in front of the computer, Dr. Krambeck knew what had been done to me and what other surgeries and care I had prior to coming from memory. She outlined what treatments she proposed would help me and what to expect. Everything she told me turned out to be true. The followup was thorough and all my questions were answered without any hesitation. She is very smart and very professional as well as kind and caring.
