This is the best doctor I've ever had for my kids! I've had many doctors in my life and my kids lives. My kids are 13 and 15 and love him! I've never had an issue with having to wait a long time and he's very thorough with both of them. My children are a boy and a girl, so I would recommend him for either!

My eldest sons pediatrician retired, and Dr. Crummer took over his patients. I have been nothing but satisfied and confident with the care over the years. I have two other children and Crummer actually personally visited both babies at the hospital within hours of their birth. My 2 younger children have had some issues the past few years. I have been so pleased with all the advice and guidence I have received.I honestly think that Dr. Crummer is the reason my kids have faired thru some difficult health issues so well, because he has always made himself available to answer our questions and guide us thru gracefully. If you don't feel like you can trust your Dr. With your kids lives then find a new one. I rest easier knowing my children's main caregiver is knowledgeable and level headed even when faced with some complex issues. I've never felt pressure to medicate my kids, or do anything I'm not comfortable with. I am forever grateful for Dr. Crummer and all of his staff.

Dr. Crummer has provided my son with excellent care and attention since his release from the hospital. He has referred my son to specialists when necessary and has offered excellent overall care for my son. He even discusses the dietary details with me to ensure that he is receiving a well rounded and complete diet as should a doctor.

He made us wait for about an hour in the first visit. Was not any kind with our baby, and made him cry. Paid little attention and as a consequence gave a poor diagnosis. We changed our doctor after the fourth visit, and are very happy with our present pediatrician.
