Patient Reviews
Dec 23, 2023
I am thankful for a successful complex thoracic surgery by Dr Krauss. I went back to Mayo 3 mo post surgery to be involved in a holistic rehab program. It was HORRIBLE!I stayed 15 of 30 days until I realized I was involved in a covert process to forcibly take away my opiates prescribed and supported by Dr Krauss. The program had a clear message that you MUST deny your needs and not utilize and supports from any source and be silent regarding your health. Sadly, Dr Krauss and his staff acted as if they did not know me. And the program was clearly not what I was looking for to move my life forward in a healthy direction. I contacted the Mayo BOD and Ethics Committee with an in depth explanation of my many concerns as a patient and RN. I got a supportive response that changes would be looked at and made. I KNOW that a wide continuum of care is essential to complete healing after such an impactful surgery. I was very disappointed to not get it at the Mayo Clinic!
