Dr. Kurtz was very thorough in the well visit of my son. She spent extra time at the end of the day on his care following up with testing she wanted done.

This was our first visit with Dr. Kurtz as parents of a newborn she was extremely thorough and her genuine care shined. She also was excellent at explaining everything and was patient and willing to answer all our questions.

She was very judgy made fun of my son wanting to be a police officer for Halloween

She was very inconsiderate about her tone and the way information was conveyed. Bedside manners were poor for a pediatric environment.

Despite telling nurse we would not being doing vaccines today, doc raised vaccines today and also pushed blood work for cholesterol without giving any attention to the panic on the patient's face.
