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.

So smart, so thorough, and so caring.
Over the years I have had numerous health conditions requiring hospital stays and operations. I have, therefore, had many doctors, most all of them specialists. They have for sure helped me, but above and beyond them all is Dr. Yurth. She is more than thorough. She treats your body as a whole system, and she explains it all to you in depth so that you understand. There is no one like her, and I don’t say this lightly, she is brilliant. I feel better now than I’ve felt in many years, but more than that, at my age, I have hope that tomorrow will be an even better day. A friend who works at our local hospital said that everyone misses me because of how long it’s been since my last hospitalization. It was said as a friendly joke, but it’s a profound one. And as far as I’m concerned, the credit goes to her. And I’m not alone. Anyone I’ve ever sent to her has thanked me.

I have degenerative disk disease, osteoporosis of the spine, 5 L buldging disks, scoliosis and a compression fracture of a T vertebrate due to a fall (landing sitting up). Although I have a high pain threshold, I thought I could not go to my granddaughter's wedding in England (August 2019), due to severe lower back pain, and asked Dr. Yurth for a letter to cancel my flight. "What! Not go to your granddaughter wedding?" Dr. Yurth exclaimed, "come in tomorrow and I will fix you up with spinal injections to lessen your pain so that you can be comfortable in England." I did, and she did, and I had a wonderful trip! I can never thank Dr. Yurth enough for her caring and expertise over the years prior to the pandemic. I would find it most difficult to replace her.

I see her for my migraines and she's wonderful and has kept the problem at bay for a few years now. She really thinks outside the box for get complicated patients.

She does NOT take insurance. Her office is a complete "bait and switch" operation. She accepts insurance, then convinces you that you need stem cells or some sort of treatment that isn't covered by insurance, then asks you to go to her private side-practice and pay her cash. To my knowledge she doesn't provide any services that your insurance will cover. Quack alert.

Whoever wrote a one star review of Dr Yurth must have posted about the wrong physician! This does not sound like her. She spends extensive time with her clients and is more knowledgeable and informative about health issues than ANY doctor I have ever met!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Ridiculous waste of money. The visit was a frenzied rapid fire experience. She quickly went over some exercises to help my back after jumping to conclusions that it was simply muscle weakness. She barely looked at me. Asked maybe two questions. Turns out, after finally seeing a specialist for tendinitis who connected all the dots that I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, whose hallmark is SI joint dysfunction. Yurth is a disgrace to her specialty.

Dr. Yurth impressed me with her diagnostic skills, which extended well beyond the typical list of questions. During the first office visit she performed a thorough physical examination and the staff took digital X-rays using their onsite equipment. I am very confident that my particular musculoskeletal problem--lumbar facet synovitis--will be treated efficiently and compassionately. I am currently undergoing physical therapy and will return soon for follow up. I highly recommend this specialist.

Dr. Yurth has been treating me for at least ten years. she is the best physician I have ever had. She is a great diagnostician as well as being very intuitive when it comes to treating me. I can't say enough good things about her.
