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.

If I could give zero starts I would NIGHTMARE experience. I took my 7 year old son there for a toe infection. The doctor was not interested in answering any of my questions. He suggested to cut the side of the toenail out but when I started asking questions he didn’t want to answer any of them… He basically said that this is what he recommends (no explanation why) and that’s what he’s going to do and if I don’t like It I can go somewhere else. When I said I’d like to have some explanations and my questions answered he said “I’ve explained myself out, find someone else”. Imagine what a 7 year old must have felt sitting there! Even if he was the best specialist in town I wouldn’t let him touch my kid with that approach and horrific attitude. My son is still shellshocked after that experience.

I married the good doctor and his lovely bride a very long time ago at The Grand Bay Hotel...Beautiful weeding and a great time. Later I became a patient of Dr. Curson and could not have been more pleased with the outcome of the work and recommendations that he provided. Best wishes for continued success Dr. Curson - James G.

My name is Pat and I have been a patient of Dr. Curson's for over 20 years. Even though I moved two hours north, I still make appointments in the office when I am in town visiting. I have had many issues with both of my feet and can say with confidence that I would not be walking, if I had not found Dr. Curson. He fixed all my issues and I still trust him to this day. I have no desire to look for another podiatrist. His staff is wonderful and I highly recommend Dr. Curson!

My experience with Dr. Curson and his staff was excellent. I've been dealing with foot pain for over 6 months and after implementing his treatments my pain has decreased significantly. He fitted me for custom made orthotics (shoe inserts) and after a week of wearing them the pain in my left foot is practically gone. As I wear them more I'm confident I will be able to take long walks again. Without hesitation I recommend Dr. Curson if you have foot issues or pain.

About Me

care philosophy

I am a 2nd generation podiatrist who loves what I do. I am also ranked in the top 25% of triathletes and know the importance of maintaining proper foot & ankle care, and how it impacts my own daily life. I try to treat each patient with the same level of care that I would hope to receive myself.
