I've always been very happy with Dr. Krech. I hit a rather unpleasant experience the last time I was at college town so I left for a year and saw another provider but I just didn't have the confidence in them that I have in Dr. Krech so I went back to her. I like her very much and have complete confidence in her when it comes to the care of my eyes.

I have Glaucoma so Dr. Krech explained the options and aids available to me. Very Helpful! I did purchase the Cocoon sunglasses from ABVI/Goodwill Store which helps with the sun glare.

Dr. Jennifer Krech is very well versed in her practice. She is thorough in her examination and, I believe, extremely knowledgeable. She always makes sure I know what she finds and what she recommends I do to continue preserving the health of my eyes (I am a 20+ year diabetic). I completely trust her.
