Hoyt Creig S MD

Fabulous doctor, brilliant man, funny and endearing bedside manner, great with kids, etc, etc, etc. He’s awesome! I just wish there were more doctors like him. My son has been his patient since birth (and a patient of his then partner, Dr. Frederick, who has since moved to another hospital but was also fantastic). We really appreciate him and the work he does.

Dr. Hoyt is a brilliant doctor who is #1 in the world for his field. He can look at you and pretty much know exactly what is wrong in moments.
Unfortunately, due to his enormously busy schedule, the knowledge of what is wrong with you and how to fix you is waved in your face right out of your reach. This is beyond frustrating because you are desperately trying to get your pain to go away, and you know he knows how to fix you, but you cannot get enough information from him in order to know how to get the pain to go away.
Trying to get in touch with him is a game of phone tag. You have to leave a message on his voicemail and hope his assistant will triage you high enough so you will get a call back. Leaving a message saying, «I did the thing you told me to, and now I am in a lot more pain. I now have zero productivity. What do you recommend I should do next?» will not get you a call back.
Once you do get a call back and talk to his assistant, you have to hope Dr. Hoyt wrote explicitly in your records the same follow up instructions he had verbally told you, or that his assistant can understand the problem you are having and the needs you require. If neither is true, nothing will happen next because the assistant won’t know what to do with you. The assistant will promise to consult Dr. Hoyt about what to do with you, but two weeks later and you call back and the assistant still has no idea what to do with you.
I have tried taking the small amount of information Dr. Hoyt has provided me about my condition and researching it so I can try to fix it myself, but it is tremendously difficult because the condition is in my eyes. It is enormously difficult to read, and it is enormously difficult to hold information in my head because my head hurts so much. Plus, the eyes and the brain are extremely complicated to understand in the first place. It is costing me a lot of time and money in trial and error as I try to continue the experiments Dr. Hoyt started but never got around to completing.
I have gone to numerous doctors before Dr. Hoyt, and they either had absolutely no idea what was wrong with me, or did not believe there was something actually wrong with me. Since no other doctor has had any idea what is wrong with me, I don’t know where else to turn.
I am so incredibly grateful that Dr. Hoyt exists because he knows what is wrong with me, I just wish I could get access to that information so I could get better.
