Exclamation Beware- dr. Nelson kraucak life family practice

He is alternative medicene. Nothing wrong with that. You will, probably, wait for an hour, from your appt time, before you are seen.
There is, always, an excuse. he is, always, trying to keep treatment in house. HE can do anything.

My experience as well. I just went for my annual physical. He ordered many tests that I had a year ago. When I asked him why, he said just monitoring. I did not make appts. for two of them.

I heard he drives a Bentley. 'Nuff said.

There is another alternative medicine doc in Summerfield that I am probably going to see. Dr. Luna Beck. Ad on A8 of Sunday's Daily Sun.

It must run in the family. Dr. Villa was my medical doctor. $$$ grubber...
She always had excuses why she was late. Running extra tests, etc.
After waiting over an hr a few times I had a talk with her.
I ended up changing doctors.

Went to him the other day. One last try. Am trying a supplement. If it doesn't work and need prescription will go to another doc.

I have a slight problem that three docs said I don't need meds. Dr. K. says I do and they don't know what they're talking about. Three out of four docs....

Default He is great!

Almost every doctor runs late. Is driving a BMW and working hard horrible? I know many people he cured of cancer and many other issues! Sounds like jealousy and resentment on many of these comments. They also all need to run tests to check your status and health!
Best Wishes!

I find Dr Kraucak to be extremely arrogant. At my "required' annual physical, he spent about 10 minutes taking pulse, listening to heart etc, then ordered all the same tests as he did the year before (all of which had come back completely normal). I tried to have a conversation with him about an issue that was concerning me. He answered me in two quick sentences which intimated that I was less than an intelligent person, and was walking out the door when he said, "have the tests and we'll see" When I asked for an explanation of the tests, he pointed to the nurse and said " she'll tell you.. you used up all your time talking about your "problem". I am currently in the market for a new doctor.

I find it scary that there are doctors with so little empathy.

Where are these doctors you wait (only) an hour for? Two to three hours average in NY over the last 35 years........

I used to go to that practice. Dr. James Coy was my doctor. A few months ago he "disappeared" from the practice. Look at the turnover in the staff in just a year. Every appointment there were new faces. They kept "forgetting" to review all the tests I had. I moved on.
