Bob Kramer was a dear friend who Cynthia & I loved. He was also a very smart and gifted physician, who took care of me.

Dr Bob Kramer was one of the smartest and best internists ever. He diagnosed my kidney stones with out examining me by phone when my local internist misdiagnosed my ailment as diverticulitis, faced me an order for a CT scan and was right. I was in Palm Beach Gardens, FL and he was in Silver Spring, MD. He was a close personal friend before he was my physician. Just a great Dr and a Great guy

Bob Kramer was the best Doctor I ever had. He was my good friend first, way before he became my Doctor after my former
doctor retired. He even made House calls on my mother when she was in a nursing home. He was a wonderful husband, father grandfather and friend. I loved Bob

Dr. Kramer was a kind gentleman and a dedicated physician. I had the honor of seeing many of his patients and I could tell how much he cared about his patients by the way his patients cared about him. He will be dearly missed and my thoughts and prayers are with his family.
