Dr. Kruger is a very talented surgeon and always takes the time to answer all my questions to ensure I am comfortable and prepared to progress in my recovery safely. He reassures me which significantly reduces my anxiety. He's straight forward and honest, professional and clear in his communication.

Under the care of Dr. Kruger (with great advices and motivation), I had lost around 40 pounds. Now I think that I could be ready to reach the next step and confirm how good is Dr. Kruger with his hands. Him and his office staff are a very efficient group of professionals working through this pandemic helping people like me under massive pain to get better lifestyle on our circumstances. His office staff are very good and fast with reports and paperwork. I'm glad that I count with Dr. Kruger to fix my back condition.

Health issues were discussed and addressed for further study with tests and referral for consultation.

10/12/2020

[Highly satisfied with] Their efficiency and professionalism with patient care.

10/07/2020

On Tuesday when I saw him, Dr Kruger immediately recognized what a bad state I was in and was concerned as to how quickly I had deteriorated. He showed me the MRI and I could see why I was in such pain and could not walk. He scheduled me for emergency surgery that week (Friday). He was amazing! Surgery gave me my life back!

10/02/2020

Very knowledgeable staff. Took time to explain procedures, hospital time, recovery time, etc.

09/29/2020

Waited 45 minutes, had 2 minutes of face to face time. This could have been done over the phone or Telemed. Waiting room time is extremely aggravating to my back injury and would much rather be avoided when possible.

09/28/2020

Dr. Kruger fixed all of my pain that I was experiencing in my shoulder neck and arm. I initially wrote it off to getting older. Personally I still can't accept I'm getting older LOL but felt there was something else wrong with my neck. So the first step was contacting my primary care physician. My sister had Dr. Kruger fix her back which by the way is still excellent. So I decided to go with Dr. Krueger.

I think he found out the problem.

09/26/2020

I would prefer to come in and see Dr. Kruger in person, however for my first virtual experience I was satisfied, considering the state of our country at this time.

05/11/2020

Couldn't be more satisfied. Dr. Kruger and his team waste no time addressing my health and a proper healing plan for my recovery post-surgery.

05/11/2020

Dr. Kruger is known for his lack of bedside manner, however, I've always felt, that he would fight for me if necessary. Even though he's curt, I've always liked him. In this last experience he was rude and spoke down to me. He probably didn't even realize it. He interrupted. I never felt heard. My daughter and home health aide were horrified at his demeanor.

05/11/2020

Dr. Kruger and his staff have been fantastic throughout the entire process, including follow up calls after surgery from the PA's to see how I was doing. Dr. Kruger took the time during the video call to answer all my questions and was extremely personable.

05/11/2020

Dr. Kruger was great helping me to understand my options and offering things I could do to help with my pain.

05/11/2020

04/27/2020

I got in and out fast and the office was very clean.

04/27/2020

If there was an option of partially satisfied, I would have selected that one. I found it difficult to answer Dr Kruger's questions regarding my progress.

04/27/2020

Still in pain.

04/25/2020

I completed my visit via telehealth and found my physician to still be compassionate and sympathetic to my needs.

04/11/2020

Dr Kruger was very professional and compassionate. He was direct and didn't sugar coat the visit which I greatly appreciated. [Single best thing is...] Finding out the real reason for my neck pain.

04/07/2020

It was a virtual office visit. I had questions/concerns regarding my surgery 5 months ago. Dr. Kruger was patient and always listens to me then offers his solutions. It was life changing! I am walking, riding a bike, exercising.

04/01/2020

Very professional. Jen was very caring compassionate. She relayed our symptoms to Dr Kruger in a timely fashion. Dr Kruger did not hesitate to see us during this pandemic. Perfect surgery, excellent work. Dr Kruger is not only a surgeon he is an artist

04/01/2020

Friendly and to the point, got right to the point.

03/30/2020

Visit was good. Nothing new happened, though.

03/29/2020

Informative, honest, concerned physician. Dr. Kruger is pleasant but tells it like it is which fits my style. Dr. Kruger performed spine surgery on me several years ago. I continue to have confidence in his skill and judgement. Dr. Kruger is dedicated to the success of the procedure. His follow through with is patients is excellent.

03/26/2020

Easy in & out, not a long wait. [Single best thing is...] less urine incontinence.

03/25/2020

Dr. Kruger is amazing. From the moment I met him a few months ago, he knew he could help me. So many people told me not to have surgery and to get another opinion. I trusted Dr. Kruger, and thanks to him, I can now walk and have my life back. During this last visit, the entire office handled precautions of the coronavirus perfectly. Again, Dr. Kruger gave me back my life. Thank you!

03/25/2020

Dr. Kruger has been my surgeon for over 20 years and he has made me walk strong again! [Single best thing is...] The pain is GONE!! I love Doctor Kruger, Josh and the office and hospital staff especially Nurse Joan. I was able to go back to work!!

03/25/2020

I drove 45 minutes to the appointment. I had received paperwork from the neurologist that Dr. Kruger needed to see. He looked at it quickly and told me I should hear from somebody about a date for my CAT scan in a week. If I don't hear from somebody, call back I was probably forgotten. My appointment was on the 16th. I've called twice and left messages with Dr. Kruger's assistant named Jenn. She has not gotten back to me. Since I first contacted Dr. Kruger I have left 3 messages with Jenn and she has never gotten back to me. I came to this facility for a second opinion on surgery I had on my back and now I'm thinking I may have made a big mistake choosing this facility.

03/25/2020

Staff is amazing, super nice and always treat you like a person not just a number. [Single best thing is...] The doctor and PA are trying to fix this old man without surgery.

03/23/2020

Dr. Kruger and his staff were excellent. Wait time was perfect and I was taken right on time. [Single best thing is...] Dr. Kruger was candid and explained everything clearly.

03/16/2020

Relatively punctual and Dr. Kruger is a direct and non b.s guy.

03/13/2020

03/13/2020

My back problem continues, pain unbearable at times.

03/06/2020

Dr. Kruger is knowledgable. I know he's a great surgeon and I trust him. Dr. Kruger stated it was not a back issue. It was a hip issue and [Dr. Kruger] referred me to a colleague to continue towards treatment.

03/03/2020

Additional follow up required and more time off.

03/03/2020

Very thorough with telling me about the procedure that was done. [Single best thing is...] Able to walk now.

03/02/2020

Dr. Kruger listened to my concerns. This visit was a follow-up from my initial visit with Jessica. I had X-Rays and an MRI which were reviewed by Dr. Kruger and discussed with me. He offered the options, gave me the pros and cons of each. He requested a CT scan and a return appointment in three weeks to determine the course of treatment going forward. Dr. Kruger is a straight shooter which is my style. I'm not one for sugar coating reality. I want competence, experience, and dedication to his work. I am a repeat patient of Dr. Kruger and would highly recommend him. The single best thing about my treatment is Dr. Kruger's honesty with patients.

03/02/2020

Dr. Kruger explained the situation thoroughly and made me feel comfortable with the plan and what to expect going forward.

03/01/2020

Made a plan; haven't acted on it. Insufficient pain management.

02/29/2020

New information

02/28/2020

Cyst Removal

Very Prompt. Dr. Kruger listened to my concerns, asked questions to assess my concerns and reassured me that "don't worry 'bout a thing cause every little thing is gonna be alright".

02/27/2020

All questions were answered.

02/27/2020

The doctor told me exactly what to expect from the surgery. All the staff was friendly and knowledgeable.

02/25/2020

Doctor was in a hurry. Did not give me an answer to the problem.

02/25/2020

Dr. took time to explain everything in detail. Answered all my questions and did not rush the visit. Great results.

02/24/2020

[Single best thing is...] Dr Kruger who I really like and am very satisfied with. Very satisfied with visit

02/24/2020

Dr. Kruger's spent time listening to how I was feeling and answered all my questions. After years of pain and not being active because of the pain I am pain free! The surgery was life changing for me!

02/24/2020

Appointments were running on schedule. Very courteous and professional. [Single best thing is...] The doctor was very positive about how this would all turn out. Made me feel really good.

01/24/2020

everyone very courteous , I enjoy talking with them and just a pleasant atmosphere

01/23/2020

NO answers from my results just have more TEST..

01/21/2020

He was no help at all !!! Did not even prescribe or recommend a pain medicine. Statement: your spine is a mess. There is nothing I can do for you.

01/20/2020

Dr. Kruger is thorough and honest, clear about what he believes can and can't be fixed with surgery. I appreciate his candor.

01/14/2020

Dr Kruger operated on my back so I can return as a UPS driver in the very near future. I have nothing but high praise for him and the entire staff! [Single best thing is...] I'm almost able to return to my job.

01/13/2020

After surgery, they went over what was needed to get back to healthy back.

12/27/2019

I waited for an hour past my appointment time with back pain. I also found my interaction with my doctor to not be very supportive or solution oriented. I was also asked questions about my eyes which had nothing to do with my back injury and was more of a curiosity from the dr because I have a lazy eye at times, it made me feel self conscious and uncomfortable. I hope that this won't be the same interaction I have moving forward. It seemed like that was more interesting to him than my injury.

12/27/2019

Because I could look forward to a recovery. [Single best thing is...] Because I could not walk and we have stairs at home I was put into the hospital with a hope that surgery could be the next day. Along with prevention of further damage to my body.

12/23/2019

Seen quickly and they answered all my questions. [Single best thing is...] Released from hospital quickly after surgery .. visit to office was quick.

12/21/2019

I felt that Dr. Kruger was to the point and respected my concerns.

12/15/2019

Everybody was helpful and considerate of my injury and allowed me to move at my pace I was able to do.

12/11/2019

I think your whole group is the greatest. Keep up the good work.

12/07/2019

11/15/2019

I was originally scheduled to meet with Marcie, but she felt I should speak with the doctor. We waited a very short time and he came in and spoke with us at length about options. Very unusual for a doc and very wonderful!

11/12/2019

Everyone at this office is cordial, kind and efficient. No waiting interminably as in so many other offices. A very well run medical practice. Dr. Kruger was happy about my progress which made me feel happy. I had lots of pain following surgery and he made me realize that it would take time to heal since it had been building up for so long. A nice, kind man.

11/12/2019

10/19/2019

The office staff is consistently pleasant and caring. They go out of their way to find answers to questions I have had and had gotten back to me immediately whether I have been in the office or calling from home.. I have not felt rushed by Dr. Kruger even when he is very busy. He has taken his time and made sure my questions have been answered and any issues are resolved. He definitely finds solutions! I felt it mattered to the staff and Dr. Kruger how I felt and what was going on with me mattered.

Dr. Kruger and his PA Josh went over my MRI with me. They were very patient explaining what it showed, what treatment was indicated and appropriate timeframes. I have seen Dr. Kruger several times and he does not automatically defer to surgery. In this case he explained why it was indicated and why it should be done more quickly than in most cases. I felt he clearly had my best interests in mind. I have always found that his answers to my questions are thoughtful and concise. I have complete faith in his abilities to resolve my issues.

Dr. Kruger quickly diagnosed my problem as bursitis in my hip. He asked if I wanted a shot and I was glad he did because I had a lot of pain. Dr. Kruger had a great way to make this as easy as possible. He has a sense of humor that made me feel at ease. I've had a very good experience with the past surgeries that he performed. I am grateful for the good medical care I'm getting from him. I usually go to the Enfield Office because of it's location but the Bloomfield facility got me an appointment quicker. I have less pain in the hip area and expect it will continue.

02/28/2019

Always concerned and spends time listening. Gave me the option of another pain shot

Very thorough exam with quality questions and follow through.

Wonderful, Dr. Kruger, Darcy APRN and the Enfield medical assist ( can't remember her name..

11/15/2018

DR. Kruger was kind and compassionate. He lets you know exactly what is going on and guides you how to proceed. He looks you eye to eye and gives his honest recommendation. I felt very comfortable Dr Kruger and treated me as patient with that was in horrible pain from scaitica herniated disc. I had severe sciatica pain starting from my lower back to calf and down to my foot. I could not walk more than 10 minutes with this pain and had to rest each and every time. I had a huge herniation on L4/L5 that almost closed my spinal cord. He is an amazing doctor and I thank each day for giving my walking back. This is the day after surgery and I am walking with no problem and my limping went away and I am walking straight and good posture. I am only taking Tylenol and that is all I need. My son came along with me and he said Dr Kruger was an excellent doctor and he was impressed with Dr. Kruger's style, and truthfulness. He is a very talented doctor and way up on the charts with knowledge and expertise. Saint Francis has a wonderful doctor on their team. Dr Kruger got me walking again, I could not walk for three months and fixed me up. now i can walk all over now. God Bless Him.

11/10/2018

Dr Kruger took the time with me to go over another way of treatment for me. Also giving me suggestions to follow to help me feel better.

11/08/2018

short wait time pleasant staff

09/07/2018

Although the imparted information wasn't considered good, Dr Kruger was forthright in the diagnosis.

08/23/2018

I am a visual learner so I asked to have my x rays displayed. It helped me to better understand the surgery I will need to have. Was disappointed not to see Dr. Kruger himself, however his PA spent considerable time with me to try to explain the surgeries I will need.

08/13/2018

Satisfied with doctor's post op follow up visit

08/13/2018

I was treated with compassion and courtesy by the entire staff throughout my visit The single best thing about treatment results was the opportunity to live life pain free again

08/13/2018

08/13/2018

Doctor was very informative in explaining my situation, did not rush me out the door, enjoyed talking to him.

06/06/2018

Dr Kruger and his staff are experts in their field and although Dr Kruger did not believe that my condition was surgical, he offered advice that has been helpful. His PA Marci, gave me a referral to Intergrated Medicine at St Francis Hospital, which has been extremely helpful! Thank you!

05/22/2018

04/23/2018

The doctor came in briefly and didn't really explain anything.

04/17/2018

Other

I have been going there for a long time & I like the Doctors there & I like what they do & I like what they hade to say to me about my options for my back

04/03/2018

New what had to be done. And explained it to me

04/02/2018

Good conversation. Yes! My appointment was at 3:30PM and I was in and out before 4PM

03/30/2018

Dr Kruger was very professional and customer friendly. After my examination he asked if there were any questions or concerns. He shows that he cares for his patients and not just for money. To me I felt reassured as a patient.

03/27/2018

The doctor didn't show me, and go over my X-ray's with me. I expected the Doctor to go over my X-ray's with me so I would understand my medical problem, and understand the condition of the Discs in my back and why I had so much pain. But, Now, in order to get a proper diagnosis I need to see another Orthopedic Doctor.

03/27/2018

Dr. Kruger is smart.

03/13/2018

New Patient Visit

He was direct and to the point in his explanation of my pain

03/12/2018

The staff always takes time to explain my condition and the reason for upcoming tests.

01/29/2018

What the doctor wanted for results was great

01/29/2018

excellent surgeon straight to the point

01/29/2018

Dr. Kruger and staffare committed to patient physical and emotional well being before and after the planned surgery.

01/20/2018

Professional and very well done!

01/17/2018

I think I've covered this already. He is abrupt, rude at times and rushed. Example - When the doctor visited me the day after the surgery in the hospital, he asked right away if my legs were "good". I was shocked. Nothing felt good, certainly not my legs. I had just had lumbar fusion surgery and could hardly move in bed never mind walk without a nurse to hold on to. I didn't know what to say. I stumbled nervously and said I cant tell if my legs are better cuz everything hurt so much. He asked again, "Are your legs good?" I looked at him as if he was out of his mind and answered the best I could. Nothing was good. Then he asked again, the same question, "Are your legs good?" I said no, they don't seem to feel good at all. I was confused because he had told me prior to the surgery that it would take up to a year for my legs to be better. Then the day after surgery he kept asking me over and over if my legs were better.

01/17/2018

Took away all the horrible pain I had before the procedure. I'm now pain free

01/17/2018

Dr. Kruger and staff CARE about and for me.

01/13/2018

I guess I was hoping they could fix me

01/12/2018

Follow up tests and appointment set up quickly. Understands my needs and concerns. Previously fused my lumbar spine with excellent outcome. Understands my strong desire to remain functional and mobile at my age and willingness to tolerate some residual pain.

01/12/2018

Explained surgery and recovery in clear understandable terms.

01/11/2018

he is very experienced tells you the way it is does not sugar coat anything no b, s. i like that in a dr all drs should be that way being over lol the surgery seems to be showing results now

01/11/2018

We are satisfied because he does not push for surgery.

01/11/2018

01/11/2018

Took time to answer my questions

01/10/2018

Despite an initial setback due to a bug (flu?), there is progress in my recovery.

01/10/2018

my mother is currently pain free

01/10/2018

Very understanding and down to earth. Made me feel comfortable about upcoming surgery.

01/10/2018

Dr. Kruger is a very good surgeon, he made me feel there was hope for a better day. Sometimes I don't get all of his jokes, but he does try to make you comfortable, during a difficult time. Looking at the ex-ray showing the results of the surgery, I can only say this doctor knows his stuff!

01/10/2018

Caring, thoughtful and funny. He listened and recommended a treatment that is working. He or his PA Jordan did not rush what so ever
