Patient Reviews
Jan 22, 2026
This has been one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. I broke my ankle. I told Dr. Krieg that my main goal was to get back to work as soon as possible. I am on a single income and cannot lose my job. He stated he could do a surgery on Wednesday and that I could be back at work on Monday. On January 14, I had the surgery. Dr. Krieg did not speak with me after the surgery. I have been trying to get in touch with him regarding concerns and pain since January 14 (so for over a week) with no luck. I can only speak with Marissa, the physician assistant. It takes days to get a call back, and when I finally can speak to someone, my concerns are dismissed and I'm told that people don't usually have questions after surgery. I am still not back at work because the office will not fill out the forms I gave them from my office that would authorize a return to work. My pain medication ran out Monday. Dr. Krieg authorized a refill, but the staff will not complete a pre-authorization.
