Overview

Services

Dr. Kryger’s philosophy of care is to ensure that any child is cared for exactly as if it were his own child. He spends a great deal of time ensuring the patient and family clearly understands the illness, the possible causes, the potential consequences and the treatment options. Finally, he helps families seek non-surgical solutions for the condition, but when surgery becomes necessary he offers the least invasive approach and the highest level of expertise.

Our appt was at 1 and we weren't seen until 1:45. We understand that sometimes doctors run behind but would've been nice to know if that was the case

The urology staff and Dr. Kryger are amazing! I wish every department at Childrens would be just like them. They gave us such a great experience and my son felt so comfortable during his procedure.

We were early and still didn't have to sit in the waiting room for long. The MA worked through the initial questions quickly and we didn't have to wait long for the doctor to come in. The doctor was thorough in his explanation, explained it at the right level, provided his recommendation, but left room for us to make the decision.

We live Dr Kryger and his team at Children's. Plus earlier appointments finished sooner and they were able to get us in an hour earlier to get on. Out way.

Dr. Kryger takes his time to explain everything so that you can understand everything that is going on and explains the steps he wants to take.

My son and I both had concerns with the provider's lack of hand hygiene. The provider entered our exam room and sat down. During our interactions, he would cough into his hand. Subsequently, he performed a physical exam. Prior to the physical exam, he donned gloves then disposed them after the exam. After providing us with a rather nice, autographed copy of his illustrated exam notes, he shook our hands. At no time during our interactions did he wash or sanitize his hands. Naturally, I felt uncomfortable shaking his hand.

This was the best interaction we have had with a doctor in years. Across the board, between my kids and both my husband and me.
