Patient Reviews
Feb 27, 2018
Dr. Kruger has performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes and both of my wife's eyes. No trouble in any surgery. His approach is conservative and seems to shy away from risky treatments that can have negative results even if the patient wants it. He is a safe bet for necessary care. While no doctor is absolutely perfect, Dr. Kruger has never disappointed me in the many years I've been his patient.
