Oh my! Dr Kroop is amazing. She stops and asks what I am thinking when I just make a gesture to speak. She always puts me first. She addressed the new information I brought to my history, recorded it and then gave me her opinion on the best way to treat my situation. She allowed me time to explain the difficult few months I had with a death in my family.She encouraged me to continue the healthy habits I have been working on. She made a point to connect the healthier me to a lessening of my physical discomforts- a cause and effect' encouragement.One always gets the feeling that she can easily take whatever amount of time needed to have a full discussion of my health status. She is a gem.
