Quote:
“Even though I truly enjoy seeing patients of all ages, I most especially love interacting with children during their time in my clinic while providing eye examinations for them.
There is nothing more pleasurable than a child hugging you when they first realize they can see better than they ever thought possible.”
Personal:
Dr. Crum’s favorite pastimes include spending time with her husband, chiropractor Dr. Parker Crum and her two children, Olivia and Parker.
They enjoy playing board games, traveling and enjoy outdoor activities, especially hiking. Their children are very active in many sports
which keeps both parents very busy as fans and coaches. They are also very involved in their children’s school and school board as well
as being very active members of and volunteers for, First Baptist Church in Searcy. Family is very important to Dr. Crum so her family travels
frequently to Northeast Arkansas to visit family.
