Michael is wildly brilliant. I have been dealing with ADD my whole life and through the years have gone to a variety of different Psychiatrists with no real understanding of what someone with ADHD goes through. I have a fairly extreme case and this thing I deal with is affects my work and relationships in dramatic ways. Since I have started working with Michael he has been able to target my medication and help me develop strategies and systems that make it possible to me get my arms around the chaos and desperation that has defined my life for so long. He is a compassionate listener and someone whose medical expertise has given me hope and I'm truly grateful read more

One of the most caring, professional and dedicated psychiatrists. I highly recommend Dr Kron to anyone who has not gotten the right diagnosis, treatment , meds or a practice with integrity such as his. read more

I have not seen him In awhile but Dr Kron and his assistant Nan were incredibly kind, warm and Dr Kron has a great personality and sense of humor in addition to being brilliant. I had some unexpected health issues but am working on these. I certainly wish his rates had not increased so dramatically but supply/demand. Remarkable human being who helped me with severe anxiety at the time. read more

Where do I begin....besides giving dangerous directives, he is unprofessional in his dealings, especially when you decide to stop treatment. DO NOT GO. I could not be more serious read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Krons since he was with Kaiser in Oakland years ago. I was shocked to see a bad review about this physician so I thought an update was in order. I have been suffering with Depression, anxiety, hypochondriasis yeah I am pretty screwed up LOL and Dr. Kron has always been by my side through the real tough times especially this year which by far has been the worse. I saw him a little over a week ago and he spent one and a half hours with me because he saw how distraught I was. Mind you I only had a thirty minute appointment scheduled. I was very fortunate it that day that no one was scheduled after me and one person did not show. He spent the whole time talking reassuring me I was going to be fine and trying to find a med that we never tried which is tough because I have side effect issues with most meds. And was shocked at the end that he did not charge me for the time he spent I guarantee you another Doctor would have ran off to lunch. I cannot and will never be able to say enough about him AND his wonderful assistant Nan. Even though I have never met Nan she is on top of everything and so pleasant to speak with and calming. She always gets me in when I need and is quick to get refills called in. Well, enough said between the both of them you cannot go wrong. I am glad I have Dr. Kron on my team. With him and the rest of my Doctors I feel confident I can get through anything. Thanks again to Dr. Kron and Nan for being there all these years. You to are the best. Will Silveria read more

I wrote a review for Dr Kron years ago and since then, I've unfortunately have had the universe dump numerous physical as well as emotional bombs on my family and myself. I felt it was tIme to refresh my review about the good doctor. Dr. Kron not only has a deep understanding of psychiatric issues & medication but, he considers aspects that other psychiatrists miss such as thyroid, hormones, diabetes. through & through he's a Biology Whiz. It's what he eats for breakfast-lunch-dinner Full Disclosure: I'm NOT an easy patient to diagnose. In addition to what people generally see Psychiatrists for, I have a chronic immune disorder, Fibromyalgia, and chronic pain. As if that were not enough, I flitter about in foreign countries and run out of my medications. Yep, the good doctor talked me off the ledge and helped me resolve that crisis. HE's THAT good! If you're seeking a knowledgable diagnostician, look no further. At times, I'm not clear how he keeps up with my boo-hoo regarding every medication I try. I suppose keeping meticulous records helps in addition to being a brainiac as well as a compassionate doctor. Don't tell him I said so, it might go to his head. Most recently, I advised him that I wanted to stop taking a medication that after 12 years, I was certain not effective for me any longer. After having the what/why/when chat, he appeared satisfied with my decision and respectfully set about figuring a plan to support me through the process. That dear friends makes for a great psychiatrist and humanitarian. What makes his office buzz with efficiency and good karma is Nan, his Senior Office manager. She's prompt with call.-backs, current on medicine changes/dos She's THE BOMB! What I'm trying to say is that the Dr Kron is passionate about his patients and goes the extra mile and so it stands to reason that Nan, his super-hero assistant keeps the balls up in the air with flare! I just wish he didn't work so hard, we will need him for the long haul Pace yourself Dr Kron! read more

I guess you could call me an academic snob. Whenever I am looking for a physician I spend a great deal of time looking for the Best there is; in this case I was searching for a psychiatrist for my husband. I wasn't just going to throw him out to the wolves (because it's happened before), so I googled "best psychiatrist in San Francisco" and up came Dr. Kron. I wasn't done yet.....then I scoured his credentials to make sure he went to a top notch school because not just anyone can get into these institutions right? Next, I was determined to find out about his effectiveness and read numerous comments on several websites. Hmmmm, maybe it's me that should go see Dr. Kron. Anyway, we (my husband and myself) are uber excited about Dr. Kron. He has an amazing bedside manner, is soft spoken, gentle, compassionate and very approachable. Best of all, my husband likes him and doesn't mind going for his visits which in the past was an issue (BTW he is doing so much better). I recommend Dr. Kron without reservation and hope that he is still accepting new patients so you can be as lucky as we are. read more

If you are looking for a psychiatrist to help you with whatever is causing your anguish and heartache, look no further. I have been to many doctors over the years but none seem as focused on me and my issues as Dr. Kron. He is not only extremely knowledgeable about psychiatric conditions, from depression to bipolar to learning disabilities, but he possesses an intuitive intelligence that allows him to go to the heart of what is bothering me during any particular visit. He never rushes me and asks brilliant questions that help me to understand what it is I really need to say. He has helped me develop numerous "coping strategies" that have eliminated many daily stresses in my life. He is there when I need him and that, my friends, is worth it's weight in gold. His office, his practice (particularly now that Nan is on board) and his demeanor, have competence written all over. The way he moves through a visit, handling a dozen little things at once, being an advocate, a case worker, a mentor and a compassionate friend all make him very different, and very much above, most other doctors I have ever met. I am a full time student returning to school after many, many years and by working with Dr. Kron I have seen my grades and my GPA move steadily upward. Opportunities that I once saw as pipe dreams are now realistic goals I can pursue with confidence. You won't find better help then right here. read more

Dr. Kron is wonderful! He has helped my husband a great deal. Dr. Kron really knows what he's doing, is a good listener and really CARES. That's not easy to find. Thank you Dr. Kron and Nan (his assistant). :) read more

Dr. Kron is a great psychiatrist. My anxiety and depression improved as soon as I switched over to him. I highly recommend him to anyone who need psychiatric help. read more

Dr. Kron is comprehensively brilliant and compassionate. After reading his yelp reviews I decided that I at least had to see what the hype was all about. Believe what you read. Dr. Kron is in very high demand and I was lucky enough that he had a cancellation and the opening fit into my schedule. Dr. Kron spent many hours with me and my spouse on our initial visit going through my entire medical history; blood work, previous diagnoses, testing, medication history, and symptoms. He demonstrated a keen intellect and a very high degree of knowledge (clearly gained through a passion for his line of work and a love of learning) that he applied to my complex and confusing situation. There is no doubt that his evidence based approach, and research backed recommendations, come from a profound respect for the effectiveness of the scientific method. His previous experience as a scientist is a real asset. He seems to be able to spot salacious pseudoscience from a mile away and filter through studies that lack the controls needed to draw accurate conclusions and separate correlation from causation. He is able to handle complexity like a genius. He utilizes a latticework of mental models that can only come from intense study in many fields (nearly every subject we touched on, and there was a wide range, Dr. Kron had a surprising level of knowledge and wisdom) and many years of practice. You can't help but notice that he takes what he does seriously and cares about helping those who suffer. I always leave feeling inspired to double my efforts, follow his recommendations to the best of my ability, and seek wisdom in the same way he does. Dr. Kron was able to see what many other mental health professionals, all across the nation, had missed. I had been looking for exactly the expertise he possesses for many years. He tested me for many different conditions, listened carefully to my experience of life, took into account my family history, and appeared to fully understand what it is like to live with a condition like mine with its many complicating and interacting factors. Many doctors I had seen over the years suffered from the "man with a hammer syndrome" to which every problem looks like a nail. This myopic view fails to incorporate individual variability and keeps prescribing and diagnosing withing the proverbial box. Dr. Kron understands that, while a diagnosis can be helpful, every patient's symptoms tend to manifest in different ways and that a patient should be treated as the individual that they are. He treats people not numbers. Dr. Kron has obviously earned the right and ability to think independently after considering the best information available - the definition of a high-level expert. He listens like no other psychiatrist I have ever heard of. He is also witty as hell with a delightful sense of humor. With the new insight he was able to provide I have been able to make progress and generate hope where previously there was neither. I finally feel like I am chopping down the correct forest. A follow up visit and a fair amount of email correspondence has confirmed and reinforced my initial impressions - this guy is outstanding. He made multiple recommendations beyond medication (all of which he supported with evidence of efficacy) and the therapist he referred me to is skilled at working with my exact issues. His staff is also outstanding and kind with quick responses and creative solutions to every issue I have run into. He doesn't accept insurance (that's how the great ones often operate) but if you need the best then believe me this is a deal. A learning machine with compassion is a rare thing to find let alone one who is a board certified psychiatrist from Yale with a network that will make your jaw drop. I don't think it is possible for me to be in better hands. Thank you Dr. Kron. May your kind multiply. read more

I'm sure he's good but I wouldn't know because they never returned any of my messages that I left or emailed. Disappointing

Kron insisted upon a battery of tests. I am self diagnosed ADHD. I am also a clinical psychologist and treat patients with ADHD. I came solely for medication. My reaction to the first two medications he prescribed was severe enough that I could no longer take them. I became quite ill. Kron's response was "get better". Instead of searching for an appropriate medication he told me to search for it. That is the physician's job and the cost of doing business. And then I never heard from him again. After $1300 he abandoned me. Very serious. Potential patients beware. read more

I went in to see Dr. Kron after a recommendation from a friend. Initially I felt like I had made a good decision after my first appointment. Wow was I wrong. Dr. Kron is the one of the most unprofessional doctors I've ever interacted with. After a missed appointment and mis-communication of contact information (his and his assistant's mistake), I was shocked and disgusted at his lack of respect and decency. Im completely baffled as to why he has such positive reviews on Yelp. If you want to fork over hundreds of dollars just for a few prescriptions, he's your man. But if you want professional help, with respect and courtesy, I say you stay far away. He is not worthy of being called a "professional". I hope he's able to solve his own mental health issues before he attempts to continue "helping" others. What a terrible doctor. read more

As a health care professional myself, I don't take Doctor's credentials and reviews as proof of their skill or knowledge. I like to decide that myself. And let me tell you... I have encountered PLENTY of thoroughly unqualified practitioners in the most unlikely and unexpected places: - On staff at top notch hospitals. - Marching authoritatively through sleek, professional, expensively done offices in a perfectly starched, pristine white coats. - Running intimate, successful private practices, in affluent and discerning communities. There are a lot of things that make a Doctor successful, and ability to actually heal is not high on that list. It's just the way it is. Subsequently, it was not surprising that I had been attempting to find a solution to my depression and overall despondency for quite some time. I had been to several different, "qualified" specialists over the course of roughly 15 years, and was really beginning to think that I was going to be one of those people that battles inner demons for their entire life... only finding peace and well being by exiting this mortal coil. Usually prematurely and by their own doing. We all know where this is going. Dr. Kron takes a very long time during the first meeting. That is also something I do with my patients. Very few practitioners do this these days. Patients in general do not want to be there. And time inside any business, medical offices not exempt, is money. However, what separates a good Doctor from the alternative is quite simply: Diagnosis. Making the diagnosis is akin to cracking the code! Once you understand what is wrong with a person, the rest is almost trial, error, and protocol. But the difficulty lies in not only taking the time, but also, as I said, being good at what you do. Being able to soak in all of this information. Weed out what is important, and what is not. Pay attention to body language and posture. Learn from the past Doctor's mistakes. And finally, take all of this and process it using the vast ocean of knowledge you have amassed through both study and experience, and find the missing link. And this is all what transpired on my first visit with Dr. Kron. He is extremely well trained, but more importantly it is obvious that he is a dynamic entity. Constantly learning and adapting his previous beliefs. Not afraid to go where other's haven't. He is completely down to earth and candid. He will put you at complete and total ease from the moment you shake hands. And he will most likely have you part ways in a vastly superior state of mind and hope than when your encounter first begun. He doesn't take insurance, but you are honestly not going to find someone this good on your plan. When it comes to things like mental health, insurance's take is very nuts and bolts. Basically: "Either your depressed, addicted, or psychotic. Go to a program." The pay for their mental health care practitioners is a joke. And the way most systems are networked and constructed will not allow you to thoroughly explore the possibilities of ailments or treatments. This guy really knows what he is doing and to boot, HE REALLY GENUINELY CARES! He goes the extra mile at every opportunity. I was seriously lucky that I found him and I must admit, the Yelp reviews that I had read were a big part of that. So I didn't mean to say that reviews are meaningless. It's just that they don't ALWAYS pay off. This one most certainly did. - Evan S. Disick, D.D.S. read more

Dr. Kron is incredible. Such a HUGE difference from my last psychiatrist! If he could be cloned as the model for all health professionals, wouldn't THAT be something! I feel very lucky in finding Dr. Kron, and finding him from the reviews on YELP, and I don't feel very lucky often. read more

In all my 35 years I've never felt so close to any of my doctors until Dr Kron. He is an amazing person and highly recommended from my family. read more

DR KRON FOR PRESIDENT!! Dr. Kron is not only my Psychiatrist but also my friend. I could not ask for anything more. I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 5 years old, but did not decide to attack it until age 17. Luckily that was and still is with Dr. Kron. He is not only the most brilliant Psychiatrist there is within ADHD but he is a person who will stick with you and willing to help in any way he can. He is dedicated to whatever it is he helps you with. Ive been to other Pschiatrists briefly before I found Dr. Kron, but they all were like sitting in front of a wooden stick compared to Dr. Kron. I would not be where I am without him. My ADHD is very much under control and Through the years with him I was able to gain a career that I am passionate about. His brilliance is invaluable. He is straight forward and gets to the point. In my case I found that Dr. Kron knows what someone with ADHD needs, and also knows how to talk and deal with it. I find ADHd to be a really complicated thing to attack, Other psychiatrists refuse to treat adult ADHd and thir reasoning behind it is that ADHD isn't the problem, or isn't real. Ive been treated for things other than ADHD with those mediocre psychiatrists and I would get nowhere with relief of my symptoms. When I came to Dr. Kron he assured me that ADHD is real and that we are going to treat it how it needs to be treated.. Through the years of being treated under Dr. Kron he has helped me become the best person I can be. HIs guidance and knowledge of who I am is what makes me deem Dr. KRon the greatest psychiatrist I could've found... Now, I look forward and am excited to see Dr. Kron when my appointment comes around, I act like myself, am not afraid to tell him anything, and in return he acts the same. When I walk out of Dr. Krons office not only am I thankful for him existing as a doctor, but I am smiling and confident about who I am. When you wish you could hang out with your psychiatrist outside of appointments, you know you have found a good person. I try to describe him to other people and its impossible, there is not enough words to say how good he is as a doctor, nor enough to explain what a great person he is.. I will go as far as thanking Dr. KRons parents for bringing such a talented kind person that's help is extremely effective into this world.. I can keep going to Yelps limits for how many characters you can type in a review.. read more

Michael Kron is by far the best psychiatrist I have ever worked with, and the only one worthy of the title "psychopharmacologist." I suffer from Major Depression with comorbid Anxiety, Delayed Sleep Phase, and general fatigue. He is the first mental health professional in my 25 years of visiting them to test me and diagnose for Adult ADD, and the meds he prescribed for that condition put me closer to remission from all of my symptoms than I have been in almost 20 years. If you can get an appointment with him, and have the financial resources (he does not process insurance papers, but you can submit his bill to your insurance company for partial reimbursement), there is no other like him. Prior to my first visit, he sent me a number of questionnaires to fill out, all of which were examined in painstaking detail during the first 5 hour visit. That's right: 5 hours. First time in my life a psychiatrist has spent more than 30 minutes with me. Don't settle for half-a$$ed treatment for the most important organ in your body. read more

Dr. Krohn is awesome. I was desperate on getting help for my friend who has PTSD and untreated ADHD for over 50+ years. I love his approach on treating his patient. He took the time and took a great care of my friend. Thank you Dr. Krohn, you are truly an angel. read more

Having seen about half a dozen psychiatrists in the last ten years, I've developed a personal index assessment for my providers. I'm not kidding- I'm that exacting when it comes to my doctors. Bad news for my doctors, for the most part. But very good news for you if you're reading this review. If you'd like to cut to the chase, here's the spoiler alert: Dr. Kron is awesome. Here's my rationale: 1. Kindness: maybe a surprising first priority for an indicator of giving excellent psychiatric care, but it's the most important to me. And Dr. Kron's got kindness in spades. He's attentive, empathetic, genuinely interested, and passionate about offering more and better access to people in need. 5 stars. 2. Advocacy: I haven't had many psychiatrists who are willing to fight for me. But Dr. Kron wears a number of hats, one of them being A-1 case manager. Really. He works hard, does the research, and keeps his business needs transparent , so that you can get what you need at a price point that's realistic and sustainable. That matters to him. 5 stars. 3. Intelligence/Competency: This goes without saying, perhaps, but I find that smarts is sometimes distorted to mean that the provider has a lot of fancy degrees and certifications. Dr. Kron has these, of course, but his real intelligence has to do with a willingness to listen to his clients. He allows me more than enough space and time to create a collaborative and creative medical relationship. That's just plain smart. 5 stars. 4. Availability: this category value could probably be deduced form the three above, but let's suss it out anyway. Dr. Kron is there for me when I need it. For non-emergencies, it sometimes takes a day for him to respond, but that's a time line that beats any other psychiatrist I've had. 5 stars. In short, he's awesome. My health and well-being are much improved since I started seeing him. Call him. But don't take my appointment time. read more

Dr.Kron is the best Psychatrist hands down. I moved down to LA a few years ago and he was able to print all my files about me out to give to the new Doctor that I will be seeing. He has made my life more bearable with ADHD. It took me awhile to write this review but please go to this doctor. He will help you and not make you feel bad for feeling what you do. So if you are looking for the last hope here it is people. Smack right in front of your face. Trust the reviews. People don't take the time to write good reviews for good doctor. I hope this helps with whatever you are going thru. Patience, time and seeing this doctor will help you thru. Just trust. read more

I cannot agree more with Anthony and all the other positive reviewers - Dr. Kron is the man! Five minutes into our conversation, it was abundantly clear that he has enormous expertise in his field, particularly in the realm of psycho-pharmacology. Moreover, he's extremely compassionate: I'm a student, so money is a bit tight, and the medication I take is rather expensive. He turned me on to a program that the manufacturer runs that offers assistance to people with limited incomes - I had never heard of the program before, but I left his office with everything I needed to enroll in it and I now get my medication for free. Then, at the end of our session he offered to write me a three-month prescription, presumably so I wouldn't have to pay for three separate office visits. I really can't say enough about this guy, or about how appreciative I am that doctors like him are still around. Thanks Dr. Kron! read more

Dr. Kron is, as the rating suggests, among the best there is. With a wry wit and an easy manner he brings the science of modern, medication based psych medicine down to earth. He is a great example to medical students and other providers as well of what Independent, non-insurance based medical practice can be. read more

I have just started working with Dr. Kron and he is by far the best psychiatrist I know of. He takes time to listen and care, at my first appointment he spent an extra 45 minutes just conversing and getting to know me and attempting to help me out on my career path as a college student. He is extremely able at his profession, and does it out of a passion for dealing with patients, making you feel comfortable and connected to him. read more

Seeking help for depression can be a daunting task. Please persevere; it's worth it when you find the right doctor. Here's my review: being new to the area, and having no personal referrals, I began calling various offices after some brief internet research. For many of these calls, it often took two days or longer to get a call back, and the return call would often be from an office assistant requesting a lengthy intake assessment. It would then take a day or two before someone would call back with an appointment slot. Etc, etc. It's not easy. It's also somewhat of a lottery, in that you never know who you will get. Will they 'get' you, and understand your particular issues? Will you feel comfortable discussing deeply intimate thoughts and feelings? Will they really be able to help you in a lasting way? I called Dr. Kron after seeing his web page - it said "Call my cell", and there were some patient reviews that seemed genuine. I called his cell and left a message. A few hours later, at 8:30 pm, I got a call. He asked if I had a moment to talk, and asked me what was on my mind. I told him some of what was bothering me, and although I felt I was not able to explain it all that well, I could tell by the questions he was asking that he was quickly and effectively diagnosing me - sussing out issues that often accompany depression, as well as ruling out those that can present as depression. But it was the way in which he did it that most affected me. It's hard to explain, but you'll know if you ever have a chance to speak with him. It was as if he was right there with me, and had always been there. An intuition of sorts - a 'knowing' - without judgement, without a doctorly distance. Just a razor-sharp guy with a lot of compassion and a way of explaining the brain's workings in a down-to-earth manner that makes exact sense. He spoke with me for 45 minutes - about newer medications, about what's worked or not for me in the past, and about how I would like to proceed. He gave me the names of several of the newer classes of meds, explaining exactly how they interacted with the brain, and encouraged me to research them further. I asked about his background, & he mentioned he had seen about 10,000 patients over the past 8 years or so at big-box hospital. To me, that was key; I believe in experience & exposure above all. I thought if he's seen that many folks, he's probably seen five or ten of me. In person, he's caring and kind. He gets it, and he listens. There's more I could write, but you'll know all of this if you choose to see him. But no matter who you see, and no matter how difficult it is, please try to see someone if you are having issues. I don't mean to give advice, but I waited five hellish years before seeking help, and I regret it. Best - D read more

Dr. Michael Kron, MD is one of the best doctors I have had treatment from. Both, professionally and personally, he is remarkable and outstanding. HIs fine human qualities, polite manners, courteous interactions with the patients, and professional skills and abilities - all make him one of the rarest doctors in his field of treatment and practice. He, always (most conscientiously), puts patients' well being at the top of (from) all other issues. He is an asset for the community and the country. He is a doctor, brilliantly competent in modern medical science, with the graces of Hippocrates and famous doctors and clinicians. I wish him all the best. Sincerely, Q. Mamoon read more

ive have only one appntment, but i really enjoyed my time with dr. kron. he asked me a ton of questions and spent approx. 2 hours with me. he seems like he genuinely cares. i also like the fact that even though he is obviously very educated, he appears to be a pretty normal average guy. looking forward to the next session read more

This guy is the best p-doc I've ever seen, and I've managed to go through a few, growing more disheartened as I went. Not only is he a psychiatrist, he actually did additional schooling to get an advanced practice certification in psychopharmacology and is still doing research. Knows his stuff better than any I've seen or even heard of. Going in, I was anxious, but he caught me off guard with his effervescent personality (not another word I could think of to better describe it), and in minutes, I dropped my guard and actually really enjoyed talking with him. He is extremely fast (I brought in about a hundred pages of medical records which he went through in about an hour while talking to me), but is unusually thorough and insightful. He had an entirely new take on everything, and for once, I think I'm actually on the right track. Already I feel completely changed, and I'm really looking forward to what's to come. read more

Wow! Where do I start?! Dr. Kron is incredibly smart, well-informed, interesting and interested. He is funny with a quick wit and good sense of humor. He is super multi-fascinated and uber talented, with a background in psychiatry, neurology and pharmacology. He is very focused on his patients but if you can get him to tell you a little about himself, he is one of these doctors/people who is obviously highly intelligent that you get the feeling could master anything, and probably has a photographic memory (I hated those people in school! LOL). He is incredibly caring and is very much a protective advocate for his patients. I feel like I have someone in my corner who truly cares about the outcome of my treatment, hearing how it is going along the way and seeing me get better. On top of that, he is super responsive and communicative, returning phone calls, emails, etc. very promptly. He is truly kind and really gives a d___ about his patients! I have never met anyone like him as a person and certainly no psychiatrist like him... and I have been to more than I care to admit. He is simply awesome! read more

I started seeing Dr. Kron about 6 weeks ago, and this review is long overdue already. I'm 29 and just realized I have most of the symptoms of ADHD, and these have been a major hindrance in my life. So after reading about treatment of ADHD, I was cautiously optimistic. I really lucked out when I found Dr. Kron though because I seriously doubt there could be anybody better. He saw me for about 3 hours on my first visit, and really got a detailed picture of my life and my symptoms. After diagnosing me with severe ADHD, he got me medications for cheap and one even completely free through the company that makes them. The one that I get for free has really started to change me for the better. I just went back to see Dr. Kron yesterday and was re-evaluated. Almost every single one of my symptoms has been curbed. It's amazing to be in a conversation with someone and not be distracted with some other thought now! I can wake up in the morning and do the things that need to be done, instead of feeling so lethargic and anhedonic. I still have a ways to go and hope to continue to make great progress. There's so much more that can be said about Dr. Kron. He's probably not for everybody, and I can see why he either has one star reviews or 5 star reviews. You wouldn't guess he's an Ivy League educated doctor if you met him on the street, because he's just a cool guy. He takes the time to see the big picture and actually cares about making a positive difference in others' lives and isn't all about the money like I'm sure some doctors are. As long as Dr. Kron is in practice here in the East Bay, I probably won't move anywhere else, that's how good of a doctor he is. read more

Dr Kron is a humane, caring, personable doctor. He'll determine your dosage in a few days compared to most doctors that take three months. Dr Kron is open to different therapies and drugs and is willing to try different drug combinations that work for you. He's the type of person you'd like as your next door neighbor. I find myself chatting with him, like a friend, after the session is over. read more

I am well satisfied with the services I receive from Dr. Kron. He is a thorough, capable and even likable Doctor. I had just come to the bay area and needed a therapist so I googled Doctors in the area and discovered a doctor close to me. After reading several reviews on Yelp, I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Kron. I found almost immediately that he is a genuine and caring doctor who puts the needs of his patients first. I would recommend his services to anyone in need of personal care. read more

My experience with Dr. Kron has been amazing. He has been my therapist for the past couple of years now. He is a very gentle and kind human being which is so required in his profession. If you are depressed or have a strained relationship and want any kind of assistance then go to him. I usually decide on my doctors through yelp but this one was impromptu. One day after a bad fight with my friend I decided that we need some kind of therapy because of the impact it was having on my kids. So I just got a list of psychiatrist from my insurance company. Made a couple of calls to fix my appointment. But it was Dr. Kron out of the lot to immediately give me a time and day to see him immediately as he felt that I was quiet depressed. He also spoke with me for quiet sometime over the phone and assured that he will try and sort out our differences. When I met him he was much better than I had assumed after our telephonic conversation. He would really spend time to listen and was quite flexible with his appointments. The first session was free so that I could decide before making a commitment to his exclusive therapy and he was comfortable with all insurance plans. After going to him for a couple of session I could make out the difference in my mood and attitude towards life. My relationship with my family improved drastically and I was very happy with the outcome. I think going to Dr. Kron was one of the best decisions of my life. read more
