Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Came to him complaining of an enlarged lymph node and chronic sinus congestion indicating a possible polyp. Dr. Harris barely entered the room; he told me to try OTC antihistamines (I have) and steroid sprays. Why would I go to the doctor if I hadn't already tried OTC options? Does he assume people make appointments for every stuffy nose? He did NOT physically examine me at any point. I'm not even sure he knows how to use an otoscope.

I have only been here twice due to the experience first as a new patient when I was first assigned to this office he was very unprofessional unacceptable and rude as well on another visit but was on the phone due to the pandemic he was a hour a thirty minutes late then was nasty very in compassionate down right rude very bad attitude he said it’s not about how I treat you or what you think about my attitude as long as I get the job done every one should be treated with proper manners and respect

Dr. Kurt Harris is one of the best doctors I've ever had to C. I have many health problems and I'm 61 years old very active. Dealing with bladder cancer kidney stones metal plates in my neck back surgeries knee surgeries and he knows exactly how to take care of a person. He can be a little Snoopy sometimes it just like anybody else that has to see somebody every 15 minutes according to the medical profession and the insurance companies. He's got a tough job especially in the medical field right now. He's got his own health problems just like everybody else sometimes people need to realize it's about the treatment not the bedside manner and he's the best when it comes to treatment. I'm sorry if you get your feelings hurt the first time I visited him I got my feelings hurt too because I was under a lot of stress but then when I stopped to listen the guy knows what he's doing. He's a military veteran and a musician. And I give him 10 Stars

Like another reviewer said, if I could give negative stars I would. This "Doctor" threw a box of Azo at my head from across the room saying that 'I' ruined HIS urine sample. I HAD to take something for the pain & didn't know it would "ruin" the test. His inability to control his anger is scary, left me in tears, and I now wish I had called law enforcement. It was THAT bad. And, this wasn't my first bad experience with him, but it was certainly my last.

I would give him no star if possible. His bedside manners are horrible and threatening. I asked him twice to stop being so mean in his speaking to me. His response was if I said that to him one more time He would be mean and I didn't want that to happen, believe him. His horrible attitude is so bad it is very difficult in seeing the goodness of him as a doctor. I have been told several times even with a friend in the room that he didn't have time to answer my Q. NO LONGER MY DOCTOR

Dr.Harris is not for the faint of heart type of patient, truthfully he scared the snot out of me at first but he spent a great amount of time with me on my first visit and is very thorough and in my condition that's exactly the kind of doctor I need and want to manage my health care and to work with my other doctors to provide me the best care available.

Dr. Harris doesn't just examine me, write a couple of prescriptions and go onto the next patient. He's my partner in healthcare. He holds me accountable to my insulin regime and diet. He's matter-of fact, studied, learned, and keeps up. His focus is always on me throughout our visit. . Dr. Harris is a true accountability partner and excellent doctor. He is exactly what I need in a physician. I consider myself lucky to have found him and I'm grateful for his thorough, consultative approach.
