Dr. Kreger was born in Houston, TX but moved to El Paso, TX, at a young age. In his life before medicine, he held many jobs. He has had many experiences from different walks of life, from massage therapist to financial counselor, gas station clerk to microbiologist, concert promoter to toxicologist, and even working as a financial counselor and microbiology tech at Providence St. Peter Hospital. Dr. Kreger studied biology at St. Martin University in Lacey, WA, and attended medical school at Burrell College of Osteopathic Medicine at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM. During medical school, he was the president of the family medicine club. He served on the board of the New Mexico Academy of Family Medicine, where he was involved in helping his local and statewide community. Service to local communities drove Dr. Kreger to family medicine and continues to motivate him. During his free time, he enjoys spending time with his family, playing golf poorly, pretending to be a musician, and finding new and exciting food and drink.
