Excellent care from Dr Kraemer- very pleased of him as our provider. He seems very intelligent.
He is excellent
Absolutely the best service, hands down, I have ever had. Dr. Kraemer is so caring and spends as much time as needed to answer all questions.
Dr. Kraemer has gotten my blood glucoses under control. He is the only Doctor that hasn’t made me feel ashamed, and gotten my blood glucoses in almost normal range. To me, Dr. Kraemer is one of the best doctors. Instead of shaming, he lets me know what needs to be adjusted or what could I learn more about carbohydrates calculations. He works together with me.
Dr. Kraemer was fantastic. Very thorough and took the time to get to know me and my issues.
Caring and thoughtful
I feel he has a good understanding of how to put a patient at ease and he provides as much information as you could hope to receive.
He is an excellent doctor. He makes you feel so comfortable.
Very useful information recieved
Dr Fredric had been excellent.
Excellent doctor! Keeps the big picture in mind, excellent dialogue, provides expertise in an accessible fashion, very open to questions on any health topic.
Dr. Kraemer is super. He takes time to explain everything. He talks to my wife, great attitude and fun to be with.
Dr. Kraemer is kind & thorough in his explanation & recommendations.
Excellent physician.
Dr. Kraemer is a magnificent care provider. He cares about people & is very nice.
I hope the residents who shadow for Dr. Kraemer know what an excellent physician he is - caring, patient, knowledgeable of "patients" emotional issues how to 'listen' and be supportive & not dismissive of my failures. I always feel like he's not giving up on me, and that helps me to move forward.
Been with prof.Kraemer for long time 15 years.
It is very good.
I like Dr. Kraemer, but I would prefer a doctor who is up-to-date with current diabetes advances and care - (maybe younger).
Perfect -
His hours are limited, another doc w/more availability is better for a newer patient.
Excellent service for many years.
