Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We took our daughter into the Er around 4:15 am to get checked to see why she was running a high fever he recommended a catheter for a pee sample when that’s the only option he put out there to us when there was also an x-ray done or to swab for Covid - rsv . We asked the nurse if we could get the swabing done first before anything bc we did not feel comfortable having our 2 year getting a catheter for a pee sample that would of been our last option if the test came back negative. And when it was time for them to discharge us Dr. Krusling didn’t even come in there to discuss what was wrong with our child and didn’t explain anything about our child’s x-ray. I will not be taking our child back there .

Awful.
I saw him in the ER for chest pain. He told me I just had a cold. I went to MUSC later that night and ended up needing emergency bypass surgery.

Knowledgeable
Dr. Krusling answered my questions being my 1st time in MUSC ER. He checked in on me before each procedure to inform on what's next. I usually have high BP but he kept me calmed. Great bedside manners.

He did not look at, touch or ask questions about the injury. He gave a blanket statement diagnosis for an injury that once evaluated by a real doctor the next day turned out to be severe needing immediate surgery. $376 for the visit comes out to about $25 a word.
