It´s hard to believe Dr K has been gone so long. He was truly a special individual. Every time I look at my son I am thankful for Paul. He told me later that my boy was his last delivery. I thank God for him having been in our lives. The world needs more Paul Kriegers. God bless your family.

Dr. Krieger delivered 2 of my 3 children and I missed him terribly when he retired. He was a very competent, humorous, compassionate and caring man and my heart goes out to all of his family. He is in our thoughts and prayers.

Dr.Krieger was a lovely man and a wonderful doctor. My husband gave him drum lessons for awhile and he delivered my oldest child. We both loved him and mourn his passing. Our condolences to his family.

Dear Pam & family, I am so sorry for your loss, I remember fondly when you both moved to town, Paul was a Dr I could laugh and joke with and call him by his first name! We were all so young then. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God Bless. Suellen Gearinger

Dear Pam and family,
I am so sorry to learn that Dr. Krieger has passed. It may sound odd, but I mourned when he sent his retirement letter, he was the most caring doctor I've ever had. I adored him so much, he delivered my four kids, and his humor through labor was actually comforting! His sense of humor was the best at all times, and his bedside manner was impeccable. He never had patients, he had friends. I I saw that he did so much good after his retirement ~ who would expect anything less from Paul.
Hugs and prayers,
Maryellen Gurski



God bless your family, and I pray for peace and healing for you all.

PDK! I will miss seeing you in the grocery stores from time to time. We had many good laughs and memories at the office. I will miss you dearly. To Pam and the family, my sympathies and condolences are with you at this difficult time. He was a wonderful man, physician and boss! I am blessed to have known him these last 15 or so years.

Dear Pam & Family...It seems like just yesterday that Dr. Krieger delivered both my children but in actuality it was 22 and 20 years ago! He was a kind, funny, and very personable man. He always made me feel comfortable at each visit and always took the time to ask about my family and life in general. It was wonderful to hear his stories as well, whether he was talking about his family or some wonderful vacation he had just gotten back from. I hadn't seen him in several years following his retirement, however, I was very shocked and dismayed to see him not too long ago as a patient on our floor. He hadn't changed a bit, still asking about my kids, sharing stories about what he'd been up to during his retirement, and just being the same man I had always remembered. It was an honor caring for him during his stay, and I feel blessed that he took such wonderful care of me during my pregnancies and deliveries. He will be missed by all whose lives he touched. I hope that each new day brings you more peace and comfort.

Dr. Krieger was more than just a doctor. He was a friend, confidant and fellow gym/spinning buddy. He delivered both my daughters and after he retired I continued to see him at the gym fairly often. I work in medicine and he would always talk about my health first but then it was on to "medical/office talk" and stories about his trips. I will truly miss him and am saddened for your loss. RIP Doc..you were the best!

Paul Krieger was the best!!!! I loved having him as my GYN - office visits were like visiting a friend - he and his staff made it all so easy - I am so sorry. Jennifer Anthony

Tom and I are so deeply saddened to hear about Paul's passing. He delivered 3 of our four children (he retired 9 days before the forth one came). He was there for us for the happiest times of our lives, and always made me feel that I was the most special patient. He made all of his patients feel that way. The truth is, he was the most SPECIAL PHYSICIAN. Single-physician practices doesn't really exist anymore. You really build strong patient/physician relationships. I enjoyed our time together (and with 4 pregnancies, there were many), I will always be grateful for everything he did for us, and I will miss him greatly.

I will always remember Paul and the knack he had for making life fun and interesting. From being one of the first people I knew to build a solar house, to having dogs that were bigger than I was, to his cruising down the street on his motorcycle... he was larger than life. He was also a generous and hospitable host and had a way of making you feel special when you visited.

Dr. Kreiger, you will be missed.
