    Patient Comments

    June 30, 2026 - "Dr. Krater is, without question, the best physician I have ever met. As a parent, making medical decisions for a [...]-year-old can be overwhelming, but he has a remarkable ability to make even the most complex situations understandable. He takes the time to explain why our daughter may be experiencing certain symptoms, thoroughly reviews every available treatment option, and often walks us through multiple alternatives. He discusses the benefits, risks, and potential outcomes of each choice honestly and compassionately, empowering us to make informed decisions with confidence. What truly sets Dr. Krater apart is his exceptional bedside manner. The level of kindness, patience, and respect he shows our daughter is unlike anything we have experienced. He never rushes her or pushes her beyond her comfort level. Instead, he takes the time to earn her trust, meets her where she is, and always approaches her with a calm, reassuring, and friendly demeanor. As the parent of a child with [...], finding a physician who not only possesses extraordinary medical knowledge but also genuinely cares about his patients is invaluable. Dr. Krater embodies everything you hope for in a physician.
