About
Philosophy of care
As my patient you deserve my undivided attention. I believe in the highest quality of care, which includes a physical exam, appropriate testing and education related to any of your concerns.
Why I entered medicine
I became a nurse when the options for women were limited, and as the oldest of six was used to caring for people. I chose correctly, discovering that nursing allowed me to care for a variety of age groups with diverse problems and concerns.
Community involvement
I volunteer at Far Point Animal Rescue, Port Treverton, Pa.
Personal interests
In my free time I enjoy yoga, gardening, herbs and essential oils.

Comments
"I don't like that next year I get my mamo and ultrasound same day but can't see the nurse till the following week. That means 2 trips to the cancer center and someone has to take me so that is inconvenient."
"Susan is a caring , thoughtful, thorough provider . She takes this anxiety ridden process and alleviates my fears. I would not feel comfortable going through the stressful testing process without her . The only hesitation I have in future appointments is the scheduling. I would have to go for mammogram and ultrasound , and then set up another appointment to see her. It's very difficult to take 2 different days off for testing and seeing Susan. Please keep the following protocols of testing and then seeing Susan the same day."
"I cannot find enough words to describe how amazing Dr Krum is!!! She is so caring and understanding and takes her time with you every single appointment. So easy to talk to and addresses your every concern. I wish so badly she had her own general practice, my entire family would go."
