Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr. Kurtz is always so kind and offers her time like she has nothing else to do although she has much.

Annual Well Woman Exam

Dr. Kurtz is an outstanding physician. She is logical and informative so that I take better care of myself even when I prefer to be lazy.

Gynecological Exams

Quick exam, at the same time, listened well and answered questions.

Blood Draw

Everything I needed done was done, but there is always an obvious tension in the air of a doctor’s office on a Friday afternoon, by which I mean its obvious the care of the patient is second in priority to leaving the office and being done for the weekend.

Abdominal Pain

Dr. is amazing and really listens and offers sound professional advise. I feel she is genuinely interested in my health and wellbeing. Rated 4 out of 5 stars because the ultrasound front desk was wanting me to get a service I didn't feel was necessary based on my conversation with the Dr. After my ultrasound it was also evident that I didn't need the mammogram service they were trying to sell me on.

Gynecological Problem Visit

Super caring and professional

Mammogram

Dr. Kurtz is the best!!! She never rushes me and takes the time to explain everything. She's compassionate. The entire staff I dealt with this visit was wonderful.

Pap Smear

The Dr. Kurtz took her time with me, I didn’t feel that she was in a hurry. She listened to me and talked to me through the whole process.

IUD Insertion / Removal

My personal experience with the removal and replacement of my Mirena IUD was unlike any other. This is my 4th IUD insertion I've had done and it was excruciatingly painful and I went into what I believe was a cervical vasovagel shock response. My BP dropped and I felt pretty bad for a while, I stayed in the office until I felt fully recovered from the episode.... as far as the experience with the staff and professionalism, everything was great, my care was handled properly from check in until check out....
