Suggestions for low-stress Medical DFW
Hello...I'm new to the DFW area and wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a doctor in the area that generally has an easy going nature? The closer to Keller the better. Thanks

Griffin in Roanoke or Krass in Bedford. Griffin is much cheaper but it's my understanding that if you have any problems, you are on your own with the FAA. Krass and his staff know the system and have specialist in the area on speed dial in the event you have a problem.
Lr and DA20 Fo. Ameristar???

Thanks for the info! Not currently flying, but working on getting back into it. I was at Kalitta Charters in YIP.

Lr and DA20 Fo. Ameristar??? I know YIP. I used to fly MU2s out of DET and went to Alper down on Gratiot for medicals. Now that's an experience: $40 for a first class but it's right in the Detroit ghetto. They get the pilots behind the bulletproof glass as quickly as possible though. |
Krass is best. Griffin nurse tried to give me a vitamin shot while waiting in lobby apparently she called my first name "George ?" and I said yes, and she said "please come over here we will make this quick" I was like uh, negative lady
Griffin office is pig sty feels like animal vet clinic |
Suggestions for low-stress Medical DFW.
There is no such thing as a low stress medical. Your career is on the line. |
FYI krass does Ross Perot's pilots (or used to) and back when Delta had a DFW base, he was booming doing DAL guys. I think that side of his practice has gotten slower.
I paid $160 for a First Class and ECG, cash only. Very nice guy, prompt attention and "wants" to pass you. Is not out to get anybody. Does mission work in Honduras. Son is a neuro-surgeon. Nice man, great heart. ** Not confirmed but I heard that Griffin got banned / privileges revoked Baylor Grapevine (large DFW metro hospital) due to patient complaints and/or not following hospital rules. Just FYI |
Thanks very much guys - sounds like Dr. Krass is the way to go.

Sorry to necropost, but what is Krass's eye test like? Machine or wall chart?
