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.

Incredibly Kind
He is the kindest doctor I have ever met. He went out of his way to help me. It meant a lot to me to have a doctor who viewed me as a human being and genuinely wanted to help even with symptoms that were typically outside his purview. Doctors like him are a rare find.

Dr. Kurzrok was very kind.
I needed a clearance to have a surgical procedure done. It was my first time meeting Dr. Kurzrok and he was very kind. He made sure to explain everything to me in detail and answered any questions that I had. Dr. Kurzrok is very professional and kind.

Rude and disrespectful
Was able to get an appointment fast, but Kurzrok was rude, dismissive, disrespectful, impatience, and lacks compassion. He wouldn't listen to my daughters concerns, she's disabled and he would cut me off evertime I tried to explain. He wrote up a report that was incorrect because he would not listen and said he could not change it and we should have told him when we was in the office. We tried but he wouldn't listen. I would not recommend him at all. What a waste of time.

Avoid at all costs
Never in my life have I had an interaction with a health professional filled with such derision, disrespect, and unprofessionalism. I asked 3 times for him to calm down and to have a conversation and not yell at and lecture me simply for seeking treatment. This man should not be practicing medicine and interacting with the public. If he is the first available provider, there is a reason for that. Join a waitlist for another more compassionate provider.

Doctor Kurzrok is very thorough.
Thoroughly evaluated my condition and has set up follow up tests to confirm the diagnosis. I am very pleased. Will provide further review after my follow up visit in December 2023.

I have been singing praises to everyone about Dr. Kurzrkok. I haven’t been to a doctor who is super knowledgeable, thorough and really cares about your health. I cannot stop talking about this doctor to anyone and everyone. Thank you Doc. I felt so much better leaving your office. A 7 star review for how a patient should experience all around health care.
