Michael D Krak, MD

When my daughter was 8 years old she was misdiagnosed 3 times for a rare disease which doctor crack successfully identified. When I brought her to hymn her blood pressure was 50 30. He referred to Radys Childrens hospital in San Diego were they identified her for having Kawasakis disease. At the time the nations top expert Doctor Burke just happened to be working there at the time. With her help they were able to create a new formula for medication just for her because she was 8. They usually found this disease in infants. My daughter was in the hospital for 2 weeks. Thankfully she he has recovered with minimal long term effects.If it wasnt for Dr. Krak and Dr. Burke my daughter would be dead. Plain and simple. He took the time to identify the disease where no one else did. Due to this whole experience my daughter decided to become an RN. Shes now a wound nurse and its all due to Doctor Krak.I am wrting ths review now because I came across a couple of negative reviews that called him a quack. Well this so called quack save my daughters lifeDoctor Krak thank you for the bottom of my heart. I will continue to recommend you until you are no longer practicing Medicine. You and your team will forever have our sincere gratitude forever. Attached is a picture my daughters who Im so grateful to still be able to have in my life. The world is lucky to have a nurse like her in the world because she cares just as much about her patients as Doctor Krak did for my daughter.

Dr. Krak and his nurse Lisa have been incredible over the years. They cover all the bases. They make referrals whenever needed without hesitation. They have given our boys exceptional care and I am forever grateful. We have had challenging medical situations for both of our boys so it says a lot that all bases got covered smoothly and thoroughly. I highly recommend this practice.

Id leave zeo stars if I could. I like Dr. KRAK ut my 5 year old is very sick and was literally turned away and we were told to call 211 because they cant test for covid and wont allow her in the building. What a joke.

Dr. Krak and his office staff are wonderful I first met Dr. Krak when my 3 month old son was very sick and in distress. We had just switched insurances and had not met our new Dr. yet. I tried two other Drs before him and both had said my son was fine. I knew he wasnt he started breathing faster so I called Dr. Karls office looking for help. I had an appointment within the hour and once he examined him he personally called Radys to get him admitted. He saved my sons life. Love him and his staff He is still our ped for our kiddosSorry to say this but this dr. Is no longer our sons dr. He is a terrible dr. Not professional fear mongering QUACK Dont go to him

Dr Krak is amazing with our newborn son. Very direct with information and has been easy to get ahold of. Made us feel comfortable answers all our crazy questions and was considerate about the care for our son.

This doctor wasnt my cup of tea. I wasnt going to review but thought it might save other parents like me some time and paperwork. My 18mo daughter and I went in for her first appointment with him and before even introducing himself he told me not to let her play with what she had because she could take the lid off and drink it she was putting the cap on and off of a spray hand sanitizer....while sitting in my lap. Right away I knew this wasnt going to be a good match and honestly wish I would have left at that not extremely personable haha. He proceeded to spend the next 25 minutes telling me about every mistake you could possibly make in parenting for example I shouldnt let her hold ANYTHING while she is walking around because if she fell it could damage her teeth. That advice is fine its just not my parenting style to worry about every little thing like that. And is that a rule anyone can actually enforce Seems like wed all be miserable if i took something away from her every time she started walking. Anyway i didnt want to act like a know-it-all but this felt like such a waste of time. So he gives me this long laundry list of donts while he made no attempt to build trust with me or more importantly my daughter. Then it was time to examine her and she was rightfully freaked out because this strange man that hadnt even tried to talk to her started touching her. She started crying and tried to wiggle out of my arms. Instead of just making the checkup really quick or trying to interact with her and make it fun he told me to hold her tight so she couldnt move while he took his sweet time finishing the exam like a full 30 seconds on each ear Ive never seen them take that long even when my kids arent upset. She was healthy nothing wrong. Im still upset with myself for not being a better advocate for my child. I honestly felt like he had never done an exam on a toddler before. I also have a 3 year old and weve seen several pediatricians due to moves and changes in insurance during these last 3 years and I havent ever seen one interact so poorly with my kids or with me. He went into this appointment with a mother of 2 assuming I knew absolutely nothing about keeping a child alive and made no attempt at making my daughter feel comfortable except saying hi in a baby voice at one point. And I get that this is a hard age so i should give him the benefit of the doubt but hes a pediatrician and that he really didnt even seem to try is what upsets me. Maybe I had him on an off day since Im his first negative review but I thought it was awful and was encouraged to share my experience for other parent. Needless to say weve switched pediatricians

We were referred to Dr. Krak as the only Pediatrician in the area willing to do a minor procedure to help our son who had a tied frenulum. Since then weve chosen him to be our sons MD. He is a very thorough and meticulous practitioner often making personal phone calls to parents after hours to check up on children. We appreciate the flexibility of the office for short notice appointments and the entire practice is well run.

Dr. Krak is very dedicated and listens. Funny enough I didnt like him at first because he wore a mask when he came in to see my son and I. Come to find out he way trying to protect another patient who was going through chemo. My son has a rare condition and Dr. Krak spent time to try and help diagnose him. We had to change doctors due to location and he has still checked in on my son.

Dr. Krak has been fantastic with our newborn and has always taken the time to answer all of our questions and concerns during every visit. He is a very attentive doctor and we are very happy with him

I like the doctor but I hate waiting even I always have the appointment and came 15 minutes earlier. My normal wait time is over 30 minutes while other patients came after me and finished just over 30 minutes.I will look for different doctor mow.
