MD couldn't pinpoint a diagnosis. Sent me back to see a glaucoma specialist in my area to rule out glaucoma. I would have thought that specialist would have been available for consult at the Moran Eye center! But, then it was after 5pm when all tests were done. Dr. Crum and the team were very kind, attentive. Sadly, not able to get a diagnosis at the Moran Eye Center.
Outstanding care

Dr. Crum is an excellent communicator as well as listener. Never impatient if she has to repeat information.
She was clear about options and gave us all the options, while remaining willing to go either way and respect our choice. During the procedure, she did the work while remaining concerned about the patient's comfort. She was very supportive throughout everything.
I have received excellent care each time I visit the Moran Eye Clinic.

Dr. Crum did an outstanding job explaining my issue, treatment options, and next steps! Although it was very obvious she had a wealth of knowledge and experience, she explained things to me in a way that was easy for me to understand. If you find a way to clone Dr. Crum and train the clones into different specialties, I'd like to have them provide all my future health care (head to toe).
everything was clear!
great job
Excellent
Dr. Crum was AMAZING. She actually stopped me in the hall (carrying my one-year-old, the patient) prior to meeting with us and told us that we were doing great, which was so kind. I was so impressed with how she interacted with my child, making animal noises, playing games with her, and working with me to keep her happy and engaged through a long appointment. I left entirely impressed with and grateful for her.
tough to treat an eye problem over the phone
Dr. Crum will bend over backwards for her patients. She wants you involved with your care and is very good at explaining complicated information in a way that you can understand. My issue has become chronic, and she has spent extra time researching to find the latest and most up-to-date methods of treatment.
I would give Dr Crum a higher rating if it was provided!
Gave me three options. We agreed on how to proceed and that was scheduled right away.
I had more questions after diagnosis. she said call back if I had moreI questions. she never answered her phone or message left at the office.
good
I have never had a bad experience!!!
I had complete confidence in Dr. Crum and the rest of the staff. My procedure was not major but it involved removing a growth from my eyelid, so I was a little nervous. Everyone involved was skillful and upbeat, and there was little pain in the few days it took to heal.
everyone did an excellent job
so very grateful for having Dr. Crum taking care of my medical / eye care!!!
very porfessional
Everything went well and my questions were answered.
