I want to second this note even though its 2 years old. I was just
browsing here recently and saw it. She is wonderful. I moved out of
state (though still nearby) over 6 months ago, and she referred me to
another physician. This latter physician has seemingly vanished into
the fog. She doesn't ever return phone calls, or emails unless you call
the office hysterical (which I did one day). I really needed to get in
touch with her due to some shenanigans going on at work, but could not
reach her. I called Dr. Krop's office, and they immediately assisted
me even though I was not technically her patient. I've decided to
return to seeing her even though it means dealing with Northern VA
traffic again, and a long drive. At least I know I can find Dr. Krop
or her nurse or office staff when I need to deal with an issue!
