Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My visit with Dr. Kreger was one of the best doctor's appointments I have ever had. He was very easy to talk to and very knowledgable. I did not feel rushed at all. I highly recommend Dr. Kreger.

This is the man, the physician, the expert that you want for your care and for the care of your loved ones. He is focused, attentive, direct and all the while patient and amicable. We immediately transitioned from terrified to feeling at ease. What a godsend.

A pleasure. The doctor reviewed my medical history and explained going forward testing and treatment, clearly and concisely. He scheduled appropriate next steps. Judging from my first experience, he is a pleasure to work with. Amazingly, his staff was as caring and responsive as was he, particularly in guiding me as a new patient. Thanks to all

Dr kreger is a 5/5 neurologist, sees his Patients right away no matter the reason, ive used a few neurologist for epilepsy who do the minimum,through the regular motions, but dr, kreger, puts time in each patient finding the right solution for each patient instead of finding a temporary treatment, this is how doctors should be

Dr. Kreger is a very knowledgeable, thorough, caring and professional physician. I am very glad that I was able to find him after years of seeing different mediocre and unprofessional physicians in Southeast Florida. Dr. Kreger takes the necessary time to listen and to discuss the patient's issues and to recommend the necessary steps to figure out the problems or issues of the patient. He has an excellent, caring and dedicated office staff. He is indeed a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend him.

Dr Kreger visited me in the hospital and assured my family who was extremely concerned, that my condition was temporary. He was very considerate and kind. I followed up a week later, was sitting with him within 10 mins of my appt time. He was extremely thorough and answered MANY questions we had. His staff was a friendly as he is !!! would highly recommend.

Part 2 of my review. After I showed my email confirming the appointment time of 11:50 pm the receptionist got all defensive and rude and told me well do you want to cancel or not. By then i had already wasted another 20 minutes so i decided to stay and wait till 1 pm. 1 Pm came and no doctor i waited 10 more minutes nothing so I finally got fed up and decided to get my money back and leave. As i was doing this the doctor finally decided to show up and his very rude medical assistant came out and called me i told her i already got my copay reimbursed and she made a face and she just said OK whatever and made a face. I do not know if the doctor is any good since i never got to see him but this is was one very infuriating experience. I really need to see a neurologist and its a shame that i wasted my time and now have to delay my visit to one do to this very unprofessional behavior.
