I was very pleased that my waiting time was less than five minutes. The Technician was also very efficient with her job and I was leaving the office within a fifteen minutes time frame.
Thanks, Dr.Krug!

Dr. Krug is nothing short of amazing in my opinion. He has been my surgeon since 2019 and I trust him completely with my glaucoma care. He answers my questions and addresses my concerns as they arise. Very professional and I highly respect him and his entire team.

Dealing with staff to get an answer to a question prior to the appointment was a challenge. But, Dr. Krug was great. Very thorough and kind. I feel as though I’m in the right hands with him dealing with my concerns.
That’s the most important aspect and outweighs the challenges I had leading up to the appointment.
