Dr. Kresbach and his staff were outstanding. Dr. Kresbach is an excellent doctor. He saw that both my wrist and my elbow were injured and treated them equally. He showed concern and was a decent human being, as was his entire staff. It is a very nice office where everyone who is there is extremely polite and friendly, while very efficient. The doctors there seem bright and knowledgeable. Orthopedics all with different Specialties. Dr. Kresbach really knew his!!

I had been having constant pain in my left shoulder with difficulty in extending my arm, sleeping, etc. Dr. Krebsbach examined me thoroughly and took X-rays. I found him (and the staff) to be pleasant, considerate and very thorough with the diagnosis and followup.

Very pleasant doctor.
February 13, 2018Iliana C.Verified patient
The staff at check-in, as well as the person who walked us back to the examination room, was very friendly. warm, and welcoming. Dr, Krebsbach, while friendly, seemed very quick and almost rushed. I did not feel as if he was open to having a full conversation. I felt as though many of the questions that he asked, he had already formulated what he felt was going to be the answer in his mind, so he wasn't fully listening. I don't think he meant any harm by it. He was probably just trying to manage his patient load. I just was hoping for a different experience.

After I filled out a questionnaire, I was taken to an examination room, where a nurse discussed with me the nature of my problem. Then, I was sent for an X-Ray. After that, the doctor came in, looked at the X-Ray, and recommended a proper treatment for my condition. I was out of the office in less than an hour.

Dr. Kresbach explained everything in a confident manner and explained all of our available options. Dr. Kresbach did not want to ruch into any surgical procedure before trying multiple modalities to help relieve the discomfort.
Thank you Dr. Kresback for your kind and gentle manner.

Visit was good, but after I made the appt, the office called and left a message to call th back to confirm my Wed/11:30 appt. I called back left a message to confirm my appt. Next I received email and text to remind me, which I like. The day of the appt I received another call confirming my appt for a different day and time and staff insisted they spoke with me. Next time I will make my appt on the phone to avoid any confusion

Great efficient operation
More than 1 year agoElise S.Verified patient
It was excellent. This was my second visit. The first was with regard to a trigger finger, which he handled successfully. The second and current visit today had to do with a swollen ankle which was diagnosed to my complete satisfaction. I was able to make this appointment in one day on the computer. There was no wait in the office and the diagnosis was quick, complete and accurate. The doctor himself is no-nonsense, on the top of his game. 10 out of 10. I was home in 30 minutes.

April 4, 2014Alessandra A.Verified patient
Competent, easy to communicate with. As almost all docs today, Dr. Krebsbach doesn't have a single moment of time for any "bedside manner". I am old enuf to remember when physicians were healers, not just technicians. As a medical practitioner myself, I understand it, but I still don't like it.
