Patient Reviews
Oct 16, 2023
I was involved in a serious car accident in 2020 and was taken to emergency at Akron General where Dr. Vrabec operated on me. According to him, my femur exploded during the accident that would have required 3200 lbs. of pressure to achieve. He rebuilt my hip and removed many bone shards from the muscles in my leg and hip. After some time, I was able to walk again. I credit him with saving my life, and I believe he is a top-rated surgeon. He is also very easy to talk to and is very knowledgeable. If I were looking for the best surgeon, I couldn't have gotten any luckier than to have had him perform the operation.
