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.

Dr. Kurtz treated my son for 14 years - she started off very hands on, caring and thorough. She called to check in on my son and came in on Christmas Day to see him and administer antibiotics. BUT She then opened her own practice and things went downhill. I believe she was in over her head. She was the only doctor and very high in demand. The care wasn’t as personalized - she couldn’t remember ANYTHING about my son. I don’t expect her to memorize my child’s history but I did expect her to read his file before our appointment. Then she closed her practice - I got a notice in the mail about 3 weeks before the closure, but heard “rumors” before that. 14 years and all I got was a poorly written form later basically talking about how hard it was for her to stay in business with the economy. It was a HUGE disappointment. Luckily I was able to get my son’s records before she closed her doors for good. I hope wherever she is now she’s back to how she started as a caring and concerned doctor.

My kids have been seeing Dr Kurtz since they were born (over 8 years now). We love her as a doctor. The thing that I like most is that I truly trust her thoroughness and opinions. I love that I am always able to get in contact with her. We have been very happy with her as our pediatrician.
