I had seen other doctors for my knee. I had some terrible experiences until Dr Kreitzer. He is an amazing doctor and his whole staff is supportive. It’s a 360 holistic approach with surgery. I am very hopeful that I will have a fully functioning knee soon. There is so much support from him and his staff. I highly recommend him

Dr. Kreitzer has been my primary care physician for over 20 years. He truly cares about my health and overall well-being, and is not afraid to order whatever tests are needed, and has no problem referring me to the proper specialist if need be. His staff is great as well.

Dr Kreitzer advise me my breathing compassity was at 50% on February 14th 2020 come back in 3 months. I advise him I was feeling good walking 5 miles a day. I would not be able to walk with that diagnosis. Dr Kreitzer equipment is outdated. I made another appointment with another pulmonary doctor on February 18th 2020 with state of the arts equipment for diagnostic of breathing diseases. He told me my breathing was at 80% compassity and he is taking me off half of my medication soon. Thank God I went to a competent pulmonary doctor. I sent the results to Dr. Kreitzer ask for my money back because he misdiagnosed me. He sent me a letter advising me he will not treat me anymore. He will see me one more time until I get another asthma doctor.
He needs to retire. I sent you results from another asthma doctor. I already have another doctor. Just incompetent. Who let's a patient walk out of their office with a breathing compassion of 50%. In 3 months if it had been true I would be dead.

Dr. Kreitzer is the BEST as a physician and a human! He has an amazing staff as well. Dr. Kreitzer literally saved my life, and many others I've met in the waiting room say the same. People commute hours to see him. This doctor still makes hospital rounds, knows your name, your family, and cares about each patient! An excellent skilled doctor and diagnostician. Very few of his caliber left. PLEASE, Dr. Kreitzer don't ever retire!!

Absolutely the best pulmonary dr im our area. He has treated my sleep apnea problem with great success. Once i was having trouble with a specific company and told dr Kreitzer. Immediately he changed me to another company. He is highly respected ny his peers. Once i received a prestigious award. This kind dr sent me a personalized handwritten note congratulating me. Who does that? A very caring doctor does and his staff is wonderful.

Dr. Kreitzer,
I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful and professional care you extended to my mother over the 30+ years you were her Pulmonologist. You were always so personable with her and I. You truly treat every patient as if they were your mother and their well being was your upmost concern. You managed to extend her life and prevent many hospitalizations by getting her into the office same day and giving necessary injections to prevent her being admitted. She always enjoyed coming to see you. I know you will never have another patient like her. She was always so upbeat and always was so well put together. My family joins me and extends their heartfelt thanks .

If their were a 0 star option I would give it.

After my initial sleep study the doctor did not contact me at all. I had to reach out and make an appointment to even discuss my results.

On top of the lack of follow up all he wants is your money. I was unable to schedule a secondary sleep study during the timeframe requested by the doctor. All insurance needed was a request of extension and a new approval would have been given. The doctor refused and said it was required that I return to the office to repeat the same exact appointment we had already had even though there was absolutely no change in anything. They just want your money.

The office staff is rude and places you on immediate holds when you call. I was placed on hold for over five minutes and then sent to voicemail saying the office had gone to lunch.

DO NOT GO HERE unless you enjoy wasting your money and being spoken to like an idiot.

Dr. Kreitzer was recommended by a cardiologist to us after my Husband had a sudden onset of severe SOB with decrease oxygen levels. We spent about 2 months being treated as pneumonia, pulmonary embolisms as well as Congestive heart failure. He was cleared of all those and no one could figure it out. Went to Kreitzer and after a Bronchoscope, a PET scan and pulmonary function tests, he said COPD. I was NOT satisfied with this since he had NEVER had a cough, never had bronchitis or pneumonia. He quit smoking 7yrs ago (yes, I know COPD can be dx after quitting) but NO cough...I asked over n over again. Why no cough? He prescribed several inhalers, neb treatments, steroids and medications for 10 months not ever really feeling better. Well, we finally got a second opinion...he has a PARALYZED DIAPHRAGM! We are slowly weaning him off all the meds since some of the side effects can be life threatening if we stop them suddenly. I think Dr. Kreitzer should listen better and not just settle with a diagnosis that fits the majority...
He now has a team of 3 docs that will be treating him and monitoring him throughout this process. I’m so thankful we didn’t just settle with this diagnosis.
