My husband and daughter were in a car accident and were referred to Dr. Shramowiat. They had to wait over 5 weeks to even get in to see him. Upon arriving for the appointment, I was told that my minor daughter needed a photo i.d. (after I was told on the phone the day before that it was okay that she didn't have a photo i.d.) Then, after filling out the paperwork that seemed like a novel, my daughter was called back only to be given a cup and told to pee in it. She stated that she didn't have to go, and they said that they needed it and if they have to wait all day, they will. My daughter attempted to fill it to the line, after many tears and frustration, and they told her that it wasn't enough. I then questioned why they needed a urine specimen from a 13 year old child, and they told me that it was the law, that every patient has to do a urine test and to expect to do it every visit. What?! They promptly gave my daughter a cup of water and told her that she needed to drink it so that she can provide another sample. They also gave her this huge white plastic thing to put on the toilet seat to make it easier for her to collect her urine. Oh, I forgot to mention that you have to parade your urine sample through the waiting room to get from the bathroom back to the examining rooms. While my daughter was sitting there, drinking her water, and I was telling my husband what was going on, the woman came out and rudely told my daughter that the sample that she previously provided will do. Then, it was my husband's turn and he went back there. He questioned the reason for a urine sample, was told the same thing as I was, and he promptly told him that it violated his 4th Amendment rights. He asked to see a copy of this law, and they couldn't provide a copy. The doctor came in and told my husband that maybe he should go elsewhere. So, we left.

Upon arriving at home, I searched online to see if this was really a law, and couldn't find anything!! Also, nothing is posted anywhere in their office that this is a law and that a urine sample is required.

I was sent to Dr Shramowiat for unrelenting back pain that my family doctor could not fix. Saw a neurosurgeon who immediately wanted to operate on me and told me I would be paralized if I did not have back surgery immediately. Much to my surprise Dr. Shramowiat found I had renal cell cancer and sent me to OSU cancer center. Had I not gone there I would have been dead. My other doctors failed to find my problem.

They barely gave me any information at all. I'm going to have to do my own research to get my questions answered. Their staff was not friendly at all, I didn't feel welcome there. I feel like my appointment was pointless. None of my questions were answered, nothing was accomplished, and I felt worse when I left. 300.00 bucks for first visit upfront and in cash, fill out a book agreeing only to see this Dr. Mike, everything there is geared for drug seekers, so in turn thats what you are automatically made to feel like, went back to see the doctor only to be told I had to take drug test first, on top of that I was going to be billed seperately for urine test that Dr. mike insists you have before he will see you. Anything he does to you after the initial 300 is also an extra charge. Talk about greedy, you had better have insurance if you go here cause someone who doesnt cant afford even the first visit. I have a primary care Dr. that will prescribe me any pain meds I need, went to this asshole for another otion besides pain meds, only wanted my mri reviewed and give alternatives to pain meds, but most of whom they deal with are apparently junkies so they make evryone to feel like one. I wouldnt recommend this greedy Doctor to anyone, still wondering what the initial charge of 300 dollars cash was even for? I guess the priviledge of meeting his highness,this may not effect someone on the govt dole or those with good insurance but an honest hardworking man as myself it really effects. Shove your policies where the son dont shine there Dr. Mike






























and follow this guys rules or

They paid close attention to me and all of my questions were answered. Their staff is very friendly and professional. I felt like my needs were mostly met, but they didn't make any extra effort. The office was very easy to locate. I didn't have any trouble finding it at all. The only question I had was regarding the epidural no information was given to me. Dr. Shramowiat is continuosly continueing his education to offer more to the patients.

i have no problems with them at all its just they scheduled to many at once and there is usley a 2 to 3 hr wait and that isn't a way to run a doc office people cant set for that long if you have a app at 2 you should be in by 2:30 by the latest not 2 or 3 hrs later he will lose a lot of people that way and i am one of them im giving him one more chance i like him and his staff i have been going there for yrs but lately he has been going nuts on scheduling .

They made sure every single question I had was answered, and are always available if I think of any more questions I want answered. I understand they're busy, but I'm getting really tired of them postponing my appointments all the time. Every time I make an appointment, it's usually postponed at least a week. Everything they told me in the beginning ended up turning out exactly the way they said it would. They were able to provide me everything they promised me. I've never doubted their abilities. They would never suggest that I buy something that wasn't necessary, and never pressured me. They were always very considerate and professional. It was so nice to arrive and see many fully qualified staff members. I've gone to some places that were very understaffed and I've never had a good experience. This place had a great staff though, and I'll definitely be going back.
