I was worried about something that turned out to be nothing. Dr. Kruthoff didn't just tell me my eyes were all good, he went on to take time to explain why I didn't need to be concerned. Once he explained my situation I was reassured and no longer worried. Thank you Dr. Kruthoff.

My appointment with Dr. Kruthoff was brief but very informative. My concerns with post-op cataract symptoms were explained in understandable terms. He was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I was asked if I had any unanswered questions or concerns before ending our consultation.

Dr. Kruthoff was very personable and thoughtful. We had a quick, post-surgery visit, and I could not have been happier with the examination.
