I was a new patient so I was told to be there early. Not sure why staff gave me paperwork no one looked at it. They let me sit in the room 20 minutes before his assistant student came in with a student that was following him.They left and said the doctor would be right in. 20 minutes later total of 40 minutes waiting time and I had an early appointmentDr Cravens popped in and brought that guy and the other person. It was a VERY small room too.Anyway he suggested I go for a CT scan with contrast. Asked me if I was allergic to... read more

Insulted me several times during my consults and pushed for me to undergo rhinoplasty. My nose is deviated to one side and causes me a lot of distress. Letting this guy operate on me is one of my biggest regrets.

I recently had Dr. Cravens perform a Partial Thyroidectomy to remove a nodule that was getting larger. I couldn't be happier with the quality of care I received from Dr. Cravens from the initial consultation up to the surgery itself. He took his time with me, listened and replied to my concerns, and I left feeling totally confident about choosing him to do the procedure. The day of the surgery I received the same quality of care from all staff at the Carondelet Foothills Surgery Center. I highly recommend Dr. Cravens and his... read more

I went to cravens and requested to have a sleep study but he ignored my request. He recommended that I do a septoplasty to improve my breathing along with a rhinoplasty. Like an idiot I listened to him and I regret it everyday. My nose has a c shaped deformity to it and has a divot on one side. I feel like I lost my self identity and and I now am self conscious about my nose which I wasn’t beforehand. I know I’m an idiot for going through with it but for a doctor to cut straight to surgery before making a diagnosis or doing ... read more

I went to cravens back in 2016 and requested to have a sleep study. I said I wanted to do a sleep study to see if my deviated septum disrupted my sleep or caused any problems that would actually require surgery. Anyway, cravens ignored my request and basically pushed a septo and rhinoplasty on me. Even on the date of the surgery I remember looking up at him and saying “I’m really nervous right now.” He patted me on the shoulder and said he was gonna make everything better. If anything all he did was make things worse. I feel... read more

I had two procedures. One to install a valve in my right nostril and one to correct a severe deviation in my left nostril. I cannot tell you how much better I can breath and sleep. I cannot begin to tell you all the misery I faced when my previous ENT had me on sleep apnea devices and medications when a few minor procedures could and did resolve. What a huge difference in my life. Staff was also close to ideal.

Dr. Cravens and his team are dirt slow in responding to a life-threatening cancer situation. As a cancer patient, I had to wait over 2 weeks for a doctor consultation to review scans. I had to set up an appointment to get the doctor to review my case. I asked his team to set up an appointment after the first 7 days of not hearing anything from the doctor or his team on results. I figured an appointment would force Dr. Cravens to look at my scan results and let me know how advanced cancer is, the treatment or what the plans a... read more

I would never recommend Dr. Cravens ENT or his office Staff. I was first seen by Dr. Cravens in August of 2019, I had one visit, waited 1.5 hrs in the waiting room and though he was very nice and took his time with me in his office, after the initial visit I had one nuclear scan he ordered. I had to keep emailing his assistant just go get my results. At this point, I was in pain, I knew there was something seriously wrong with my throat. I had two nodules, Dr. Cravens did a needle aspiration on my left side but said my right... read more
