Always an extremely friendly, professional, and thorough experience top to bottom. This is a tremendously expertly well run practice and I’m grateful for being referred to Dr. Kreuger a number of years ago. I trust him implicitly with my optical health. I’m in great hands and you’ll be in great hands too!
I just had eye surgery performed by Dr. Krueger. I chose him because of his reputation and I was not disappointed. He did an excellent job on my eye. Not only do I have clear vision now but can see colors more vividly. I highly recommend him for anyone needing cataract surgery.
Been going here for years. Love their new office. They are the best!
Love Dr Kruger but a little disappointed in the “tech” who tested my reading cataract surgery eye I had done with the chart for distance at two surgery follow up appointments. Obviously, didn’t read my chart to know what had been done. I had to ask Dr Kruger if in fact I did get a reading/mono lense which he assured me I did.
Great!
Dr. Kruger performed a transplant of endothelial cells in my eye. He will perform a similar procedure on my other. Everything has gone well with Dr. Kruger. He has my complete confidence.
This was my first visit to Dr. Kruger's Associates in Eyecare practice, for a cataract surgery evaluation and standard annual exam. Since I came from a small, long-time optometrist's storefront office, the differences are dramatic. This is a gleaming office with state-of-the-art equipment I'd never seen before. The preliminary exam is a brisk but thorough passage through multiple stations that ends with a more familiar face-to-face with Dr. Kruger where the results of the individual tests are all available. Cataract surgery? Definitively not necessary in my case. I'm impressed with my new eye care practitioner and his able staff.
He is wonderful. He listens, is very communicative. Office staff is terrific.
