Stephen John Kraus

We worked together in the ER at Smyrna Hospital and was my MD for over 30 years.
Hard to imagine such a wonderful man is gone.
I know I wont be able to walk back thru his office doors.
Wish I had known about his memorial service !

The best doctor I've ever had. I referred several of my friends and family to him and I told them all that "if he can't fix it, then nobody can fix it." He will be missed tremendously for his great talent and personality. Prayers for his family's strength and endurance. My favorite doctor.

I was a patient of Dr.Kraus for many years. I always enjoyed my visits with him, he was a kind and caring man and a wonderful physician.
My heart goes out to his family and friends.

Dr. Kraus was an amazing doctor and I always enjoyed our banter during the 18+ years he took care of me. I am very sad to hear of his passing, I will surely miss him. My heart goes out to his family and friends. He would light up when he spoke of his family, his absolute love for them was so heartwarming. He was definitely one of a kind! They don't make great docs like him anymore.

I just learned of Dr. Kraus's passing today. I was one of his patients for many years. He was always kind, and funny in his own sweet way. I will truly miss him. My heart goes out to his family and friends. He was one of a kind!

It is with sad heart that I learned of Steve's
passing. He was both a trusted friend, colleague,and mentor as we worked together in a public health clinic in DeKalb Co./Atlanta in the 70's and again as dermatologists in Suwanee, Ga in the new millennium. A testimony to his exceptional skills as a physician was his expertise in patient care in both the Emergency Room and Dermatology offices concurrently.My sincere condolences to his extended family.

I am saddened at the loss of Steve. I was a colleague and friend of Steve's since 1993. We worked in Emergency Medicine at two different hospitals as partners. He was also my Dermatologist as well as my wife and children. He was kind, compassionate, hard working and dedicated. He was one of the smartest docs I have ever met and he always had a kind word for me and my family. The community has lost a great doctor and a great man. My condolences to his wife and family.

I was a patient of Dr. Kraus' for over ten years and was a constant referrer. His compounds solved a spot of eczema on the back of my neck for most of my life within 4 hours of application. A delightful spirit surrounded by a warm staff, Dr. Kraus will always be the best to ever do dermatology. I visited the office a few weeks ago and, it just felt different. Grateful to have been his patient. God's best to his family and friends.
