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. Curry was very friendly, professional, and patient for all pre and post op appointments. For both pre and post op he took time to explain the procedure and answered all of my questions and addressed my concerns. I highly recommend him.

Not Recommended!
Horrible experience. I would not recommend this Dr. Curry. He is very rude, impatient, and arrogant. Further, after the procedure, he discharged me too early and I had to return to the hospital the next day.

Excellent!! Dr. Curry office staff were very good. Assisted me check in and questions. My appointment wait time was approximate 20 minutes. Once in with Dr. Curry he took the time to go over my test results and his thoughts for options. He explained everything in great detail and answered all my questions. Scheduling with his assistance Rene was friendly and timely. The office staff also explained everything to me when it came to billing and medical paperwork. I felt I could ask anything and have assistance with anything. Knowledgeable, Friendly and ease of scheduling are all factors on why I recommend Dr. Curry and his staff.

We found him the least arrogant and most helpful. He looked at my husband's MRI with us for an hour and did a fine exam with discussing options and his concerns and agreeing with us to get other opinions.

As as a nurse of 40 yrs and who worked in risk, safety, PI management for 30 years, specializing in surgery, OR, and anesthesia I would recommend Dr. Curry. And as a wife of a patient who had a complicated surgery I am happy my husband was in Dr. Curry's hands. He was so kind to us. After surgery, he sat down with pictures and explained the surgery. I did not find him to be arrogant, he is a calm quiet person who does not smile a lot. But, I found him to be fabulous and would recommend him to anyone.

PLEASE WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT GO TO THIS GUY. He has zero bedside manner, zero human connection and zero respect for his potential patients. He is pompous, arrogant, ignorant and was the worst doctor I have ever been to. He left it up to me about having my procedure done. What kind of doctor does that?? This “doctor” is a joke and I wouldn’t let him cut into me if my life depended on it. Save your time and money and research an actual surgeon to go to. He’s not it and will be reported.

Not Happy At All in Las Vegas, NV – Jun 26, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Curry?
Dr. Curry was referred to me by my GP for an inguinal hernia. He quickly diagnosed a 2nd umbilical hernia and was thorough and informative about my options. I decided to have both hernias repaired. My first ever surgery so I was nervous, but Dr. Curry had an outstanding bedside manner both in the consultation and on the day of the procedure. He exudes knowledge and confidence and my wife and I both knew we were in good hands. Feeling much better just 4 weeks later. Highly recommended.

Dr. Curry deceived my aunt into believing she was a candidate to have her ileostomy reversed through surgery. My aunt trusted Curry's decision because he performed her initial ileostomy placement surgery & ileostomy repair surgery several years prior. If anybody would know whether or not my aunt was a candidate to have her ileostomy reverse, it would be Dr. Curry. The reversal failed immediately & Curry didn't return to the hospital to repair the failed surgery for 6 days while my aunt suffered.

Dr curry has performed two different surgeries on me and both times he did a great job. He is professional and very straightforward. He gave me all the information I needed to know to make the right choice for surgery. He is very good about giving the potential problems that can happen and the percentages that a problem can occur. His follow after surgery is great. I called him the night of my first surgery and he called back immediately.

My name is Spirou Khoury, i am 72 years old.D. Curry performed a Bilateral Inguinal Hernia on 04.29.2016. I cannot thank Dr Curry or all the staff we met during this first experience( never had a general Anastasia at 72 ). Dr Curry was very explicit and informative about the procedure. Thank you Mountain View hospital for a very best good team. I would recommend Dr Curry and staff without a question. Sincerely, Spiou Khoury
